MACROLIDES WITH ACTIVITY AGAINST METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS
TECHNICAL FIELD This invention is directed to compounds with activity against methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) , processes for making the compounds and intermediates used in the processes, compositions containing the compounds, and methods for prophylaxis or treatment of MRSA infections using the compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Because the effectiveness of drugs currently available for the prophylaxis and treatment of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections is being compromised by increasing bacterial resistance, compounds which demonstrate modified or improved profiles of activity against MRSA would provide significant therapeutic value and an important contribution to the antibacterial arts.
Reference is made to commonly-owned US 6,054,435 which discloses a series of antibacterial compounds but does not disclose that the compounds would be useful against MRSA.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A first embodiment of the invention is directed to compounds, and salts, prodrugs, and salts of prodrugs thereof, which have activity against MRSA, the compounds having formula (I)

Dosage forms for the compounds of the invention depend on the species being treated, the disorder being treated and the severity thereof, the composition comprising the compounds, the time of administration, the route of administration, the duration of treatment, the potency of the compounds, and the rate of excretion of the compounds. The daily therapeutically effective amount of the compounds administered to a patient in single or divided doses range from about 0.1 to about 200 mg/kg body weight, preferably from about 0.25 to about 100 mg/kg body weight. Single dose compositions contain these amounts of the compounds or combinations of submultiples thereof. To determine antibacterial activity of the compounds of the invention, twelve petri dishes, each containing successive aqueous dilutions of test compounds in sterilized Brain Heart Infusion agar (Difco 0418-01-5) (10 mL) , were inoculated with 1:100 dilutions of MRSA 1775 using a Steers replicator block (or 1:10 dilutions for slow-growing
Streptococcus strains) , co-incubated at 35-37 °C for 20-24 hours with a plate with an erythromycin A standard and a control plate with no compound, and inspected visually to provide the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) , in μg/mL, by which is meant the lowest concentration of the test compound which yielded no growth, a slight haze, or sparsely isolated colonies on the inoculum spot as compared to growth in the control plate.
All of the compounds tested displayed activity against MRSA superior to their respective controls. In a preferred range, the compounds demonstrated MIC's in a range of about 2 μg/mL to about 64 μg/mL; and in a more preferred range, the compounds demonstrated MIC's in a range of about 2 μg/mL to about 8 μg/mL. The compounds are therefore useful as antibacterials against methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus .
