Lascufloxacin, also known as KRP-AM-1977, is a potent antibacterial drug candidate. Lascufloxacin showed a broad spectrum of activity against various clinical isolates. Especially, lascufloxacin showed the most potent activity against gram-positive bacteria among the quinolones tested. Furthermore, lascufloxacin showed incomplete cross-resistance against existing quinolone-resistant strains. Enzymatic analysis indicated that lascufloxacin showed potent inhibitory activity against both wild-type and mutated target enzymes. Lascufloxacin may be useful in treating infections caused by various pathogens, including quinolone-resistant strains.
