| Abstract | DX-619 is a novel des-fluoro(6)-quinolone with activity against a broad range of bacterial strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The effects of DX-619 on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were evaluated because drug-related increases in serum creatinine levels were observed in studies with healthy volunteers. Forty-one healthy subjects were randomized to receive intravenous DX-619 at 800 mg or placebo once daily for 4 days, and the GFR was directly measured by determination of the clearance of a bolus iohexol injection in 33 subjects who completed the study per protocol. DX-619 was noninferior to placebo for the GFR on the basis of a criterion for a clinically significant difference of −12 ml/min/1.73 m2. The mean GFRs on day 4 were 101.1 ± 14.2 ml/min/1.73 m2 and 100.2 ± 15.6 ml/min/1.73 m2 for the volunteers receiving placebo and DX-619, respectively. On day 4 the mean serum creatinine concentration for volunteers receiving DX-619 increased by 30 to 40%, with a corresponding decrease in mean creatinine clearance. Both parameters normalized within 7 days after the cessation of DX-619 treatment. Nonclinical studies suggest that DX-619 increases the serum creatinine concentration by inhibiting excretory tubular transporters. In conclusion, DX-619 administered intravenously at 800 mg once a day for 4 days did not affect the GFR in healthy volunteers. Glomerular toxicity is not expected to present a risk to patients receiving DX-619 in clinical trials, but monitoring of the renal function, with an emphasis on the serum creatinine concentration, is still warranted. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
