The invention provides methods for determining and evaluating the in vitro-in vivo activity relationship of the efficacy of families of compounds for infectious diseases such as tuberculosis. The validity of the methods can be confirmed by evaluation of the compounds in animal models, for example, in murine models of tuberculosis. Examples of families of antibacterial compounds that can be evaluated for in vivo efficacy using the in vitro methods described herein include benzimidazoles, pyridopyrazines, pteridines, diphenyl ethers, beta-lactams, PBP inhibitors, and compounds that are non-ribonucleic acid and protein synthesis inhibitors. The methods can be used to evaluate classes of small molecule compounds and inhibitors that may be effective against any bacterial pathogen. The methods aid the identification of compounds, such as various benzimidazoles, with modes of action having activity against clinical isolates, as well as non-replicating persistent bacilli, which can therefore enhance current clinical therapeutic regimens.
本发明提供了确定和评估化合物家族对传染性疾病(如结核病)疗效的体外-体内活性关系的方法。这些方法的有效性可以通过在动物模型中,例如在结核病小鼠模型中对化合物进行评估来证实。可使用本文所述体外方法评估体内疗效的抗菌化合物家族包括苯并咪唑类、吡啶并嗪类、蝶啶类、二苯醚类、β-内酰胺类、PBP 抑制剂以及非核糖核酸和蛋白质合成抑制剂化合物。这些方法可用于评估可能对任何细菌病原体有效的小分子化合物和抑制剂类别。这些方法有助于鉴定对临床分离菌和非复制持久性杆菌具有活性的化合物,如各种苯并咪唑类化合物,从而改进目前的临床治疗方案。
