In vitro activities of PS-15, a new dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor, and its cyclic metabolite against Mycobacterium avium complex.

Abstract

PS-15, a new dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor, and its cyclic metabolite were evaluated for in vitro activity against 31 clinical Mycobacterium avium complex isolates. Broth dilution MICs of PS-15 ranged from 16 to 64 micrograms/ml. The cyclic metabolite was three to five times more active than the parent compound. Further evaluation of these compounds in an M. avium-infected murine test system will be of interest.
