The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds, and more specifically to certain lipopeptide compounds comprising a cyclic peptide bearing a lipid side chain (for convenience, collectively referred to herein as “LP compounds”), which, inter alia, are antimicrobial, particularly antibacterial. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to provide an antimicrobial function, particularly an antibacterial function, and in the treatment of diseases and conditions that are mediated by microbes, particularly bacteria, that are ameliorated by the antimicrobial function, particularly an antibacterial function, including bacterial diseases, optionally in combination with another agent, for example, another antibacterial agent.
本发明涉及治疗化合物领域,更具体地涉及含有脂肽侧链的环肽(统称为“LP化合物”)的某些脂肽化合物,其具有抗微生物作用,特别是抗细菌作用。本发明还涉及包含这样的化合物的制药组合物,以及在体内外使用这样的化合物和组合物,以提供抗微生物功能,特别是抗细菌功能,并用于治疗由微生物介导的疾病和病况,特别是由抗微生物功能改善的细菌性疾病,可选择与另一种药物,例如另一种抗菌药物联合使用。
