Comment: Ceftobiprole is a clinical stage, broad-spectrum, fifth-generation, pyrrolidinone cephalosporin antibacterial [3]. It was developed as a treatment for hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) and community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), in particular those infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In clinical trials ceftobiprole is administered by intravenous infusion as the water-soluble prodrug ceftobiprole medocaril (BAL5788; PubChem CID 135413544).
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Summary of Clinical Use |
Ceftobiprole was advanced to Phase 3 clinical evaluation. Marketing authorisation to use ceftobiprole to treat complicated skin and soft-tissue infections was refused by the EMA in 2010 [2], but approval hs been granted in individual EU countries (including the UK) as a treatment for HAP and CAP. |
