Abstract:

TBAJ-876 is a next-generation diarylquinoline. In vivo, diarylquinoline metabolites are formed with activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Species-specific differences in parent drug-to-metabolite ratios might impact the translational value of animal model-based predictions. This study investigates the contribution of TBAJ-876 and its major active metabolite, TBAJ-876-M3 (M3), to the total bactericidal activity in a mouse tuberculosis model.
