FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The present invention is directed to oxazolidinones; oxazolidinone compositions; oxazolidinone combinational libraries; and methods for their preparation and use.
BACKGROUND ART
[0004] Oxazolidinones are compounds where an amnine group and a hydroxyl group on adjacent carbon atoms have been cyclized to form a 5-membered ring containing a carbonyl group. Certain oxazolidinones have been shown to exhibit a variety of biological activities. For example, some oxazolidinones are inhibitors of monoamine oxidase-B, an enzyme implicated in Parkinson's disease. See, for example, Ding et al., J. Med Chem. 36:3606-3610 (1993).
[0005] A a ten step synthesis of oxazolidinone antibiotics has been described. U.S. Pat. No. 5,547,950. A four step synthesis of the antibacterial compound U-100592 also has been reported. Schauss et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 37:7937-7940 (1996). A five step preparation of enantiomerically pure cis- and trans-N-(propionyl)hexahydrobenzoxazolidin-2-ones further was reported. De Parrodi et al., Tetrahedron: Asymmetry, 8:1075-1082 (1997).
[0006] Scientists have reported that certain oxazolidinone derivatives exhibit beneficial antibacterial effects. For instance, N-[3-[3-fluoro4-(morpholin-4-yl)phenyl]2-oxooxazolidin-5(s)-ylmethyl]acetamide (below) has been reported to be useful for the treatment of bacterial infections. Lizondo et al., Drugs of the Future, 21:1116-1123 (1996).
[0007] The synthesis of the oxazolidinone antibacterial agent shown below has been reported. Wang et al., Tetrahedron, 45:1323-1326 (1989). This oxazolidinone was made using a process that included the reaction of an aniline with glycidol to provide an amino alcohol, and the diethylcarbonate mediated cyclization of the amino alcohol to afford an oxazolidinone.
[0008] The synthesis of oxazolidinone antibacterial agents, including the compound shown below has been reported. U.S. Pat. No. 4,705,799. The process used to make the compound shown below included a metal mediated reduction of a sulfonyl chloride to provide a sulfide.
[0009] The synthesis of oxazolidinone antibacterial agents, including the pyridyl compound shown below has been reported. U.S. Pat. No. 4,948,801. The process used included an organometallic mediated coupling of an organotin compound and an aryl iodide.
[0010] Synthetic routes to oxazolidinones often allow a chemist to produce only one compound at a time. These laborious methods can provide a limited number of compounds for evaluation in a biological screen. These methods cannot, however, provide the number of compounds required to supply a high-throughput biological screen, an assay technique whereby the activity of thousands of drug candidates, for example, per week, may be analyzed. This limitation on compound production is of practical importance since high-throughput screens are desirable and efficient for the discovery of new drugs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Definitions
[0119] As used herein, the terms and phrases have the meanings and definitions known in the art Some of the more commonly used phrases are described in more detail below.
[0120] “Combinatorial library” or “array” is an intentionally created collection of differing molecules which can be prepared synthetically and screened for biological activity in a variety of different formats (e.g., libraries of soluble molecules, libraries of molecules bound to a solid support). Typically, combinatorial libraries contain between about 6 and two million compounds. In one embodiment, combinatorial libraries contain between about 48 and 1 million compounds. For example, combinatorial libraries may contain between about 96 and 250,000 compounds. In another embodiment, combinatorial libraries may contain about 40 to 100 compounds.
[0121] “Alkyl” refers to a cyclic, branched or straight chain chemical group containing only carbon and hydrogen, such as methyl, pentyl, and adamantyl. Alkyl groups can either be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more substituents, e.g., halogen, alkoxy, acyloxy, amino, hydroxyl, mercapto, carboxy, benzyloxy, phenyl, and benzyl. Alkyl groups can be saturated or unsaturated (e.g., containing —C═C— or —C≡C— subunits), at one or several positions. Typically, alkyl groups will comprise about 1 to 12 carbon atoms, for example about 1 to 10, or about 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
[0122] “Heteroalkyl” refers to a cyclic, branched or straight chain chemical group containing carbon, hydrogen and at least one heteroatom. The heteroatom will be typically nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur. Heteroalkyl groups can either be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more substituents, e.g., halogen, alkoxy, acyloxy, amino, hydroxyl, mercapto, carboxy, benzyloxy, phenyl, benzyl. Where the heteroalkyl group contains a nitrogen atom, the nitrogen atom can be primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary or can be in various forms such as an amide or sulfonamide. Heteroalkyl groups can contain one or more unsaturated (e.g.,—C═C— or —C≡C—) subunits. Typically, heteroalkyl groups will comprise 1 to 12 atoms, for example 1 to 8, or 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
[0123] “Aryl” refers to a monovalent unsaturated aromatic carbocyclic group having a single ring (e.g. phenyl), multiple rings (e.g. biphenyl), or multiple condensed rings (e.g. naphthyl or anthryl). Aryl groups can be optionally unsubstituted or substituted with amino, hydroxyl, alkyl, heteroalkyl, alkoxy, halo, mercapto and other substituents. Typically, the aryl group is a substituted single ring compound. For example, the aryl group is a substituted phenyl ring.
[0124] “Heteroaryl” refers to a monovalent unsaturated aromatic carbocyclic group having a single ring (e.g., pyridyl or furyl) or multiple condensed rings (e.g., indolizinyl or benzothienyl) and having at least one heteroatom within the ring. The heteroatom in the ring is preferably nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur. Heteroaryl groups can be optionally unsubstituted or substituted with amino, hydroxyl, alkyl, heteroalkyl, alkoxy, halo, mercapto and other substituents. In one embodiment, the heteroaryl group is substituted.
[0125] “Electron withdrawing group” refers to a substituent that draws electrons to itself more than a hydrogen atom would if it occupied the same position in a molecule. This definition according to field effect is discussed in March, “Advanced Organic Chemistry,” 3d Edition, pp. 16-17, Wiley-Interscience, New York. It should be contrasted with a definition based on resonance effects. Examples of electron withdrawing groups include —NR2, —COOH, —OR, —SR, —F, —COR, —Cl, —SH, —NO2, —Br, —NH2, —SO2R, —I, —OH, —CN, —C═CR2, where R is alkyl, heteroalkyl, aryl or heteroaryl.
[0126] “Chemical module” refers to a general class of molecules that can be incorporated into a combinatorial library at a discrete step in the library synthesis. For example, thiols are chemical modules that can be coupled to a substrate, where the synthetic route employs a nucleophile to displace a solid support bound leaving group; isocyanates are chemical modules that can be coupled to a substrate, where the synthetic route employs an electrophile to react with a solid support bound amine. Chemical modules can contain tens, hundreds or thousands of different individual members.
[0127] “Protecting group” refers to a chemical group that exhibits the following characteristics: (1) reacts selectively with the desired functionality in good yield to give a protected substrate that is stable to the projected reactions for which protection is desired; 2) is selectively removable from the protected substrate to yield the desired functionality; and 3) is removable in good yield by reagents compatible with the other functional group(s) generated in such protection reactions. Examples of protecting groups can be found in Greene et al. (1991) Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd Ed. (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York).
[0128] “Biologically active oxazolidinone compounds” or “bioactive oxazolidinone compounds” refers to an oxazolidinone compound, for example, of structure 1b that exhibits biological activity. For instance, a biologically active oxazolidinone can inhibit the interaction between an enzyme or receptor and its respective substrate(s) or endogenous ligand(s), or inhibit cell growth of a microorganism, by about at least 15% at a solution concentration of 10−3molar or lower (i.e., it has inhibitory activity). For example, the biologically active oxazolidinone will inhibit such processes at solution concentrations of about 10−4M or lower, or 1−5M or lower, or, e.g., of about 10−6M or lower.
[0129] “Allylic amine” refers to a compound of the following structure:
[0130] where R31, R32, R33, R34and R35are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, heteroalkyl, aryl and heteroaryl. Where R31, R32, R33, R34and R35are all hydrogen, the allylic amine is allylamine.
[0131] “Phosgene equivalent” refers to a chemical reagent that can add a C═O group to a molecule in either one or more than one chemical steps. A nonlimiting example of a phosgene equivalent that can add a C═O group in one chemical step is carbonyldiimidazole (CDI). A nonlimiting example of a phosgene equivalent that can add a C═O group in more than one chemical step is ethyl chloroformate.
[0132] “Acyl” refers to a group —(C═O)—R, where R is a substituent such as H, aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl or heteroalkyl. Exemplary acyl groups include formyl, acetyl, propionyl and butyryl.

Synthesis of 3-(Heteroaryl)Oxazolidinones
[0350] 3-(Heteroaryl)oxazolidinones and other oxazolidinones may be synthesized by a variety of routes as disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the synthesis may be conducted as shown in FIG. 49, wherein the synthesis includes: reaction of an appropriate heteroaryl halide with 3-aminopropane-1,2-diol; cyclization of the resulting (heteroaryl)amninodiol with phosgene or equivalent; conversion of 5-(R)-hydroxymethyl-3-heteroaryloxazolidinone into resin immobilized 5-(S)-aminomethyl-3-heteroaryl oxazolidinone. Further reaction of this reagent produces the desired oxazolidinone.
[0351] In another embodiment, which is illustrated in FIG. 50, the 5-(S)-azidomethyl-3-heteroaryloxazolidinone reagent is produced from an appropriate heteroarylhalide and 5-(S)-azidomethyloxazolidinone or equivalent thereof in the presence of a base. The resulting azide or amine intermediate is then immobiilzed on a BAL linker resin. Further reaction of the X group and or the amine group attached to the solid phase provides an array of desired 3-heteroaryloxazolidones.
[0352] As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, using these and other methods disclosed herein, based on the teachings of the specification, the oxazolidinones disclosed herein can be readily synthesized.
Combinatorial Library Synthesis
[0353] Combinatorial library synthesis is typically performed on a solid support. See, for example, Lam et al. (1991) Nature354:82-84; and Houghten et al. (1991) Nature354:84-86. There are two general technologies for the construction of combinatorial libraries: “mix and split” technology and “multiple parallel synthesis” technology.
[0354] For the “mix and split” technology, a large number of beads or particles are suspended in a suitable carrier (such as a solvent) in a parent container. The beads, for example, are provided with a functionalized point of attachment for a chemical module. The beads are then divided and placed in various separate reaction vessels. The first chemical module is attached to the bead, providing a variety of differently substituted solid supports. Where the first chemical module includes 3 different members, the resulting substituted beads can be represented as A1, A2and A3.
[0355] The beads are washed to remove excess reagents and subsequently remixed in the parent container. This bead mixture is again divided and placed into various separate reaction vessels. The second chemical module is coupled to the first chemical module. Where the second chemical module includes 3 different members, B1, B2and B3, 9 differently substituted beads result: A1B1, A1B2, A1B3, A2B1, A2B2, A2B3, A3B1, A3B2and A3B3. Each bead single type of molecule attached to its surface.
[0356] The remixing/redivision synthetic process can be repeated until each of the different chemical modules has been incorporated into the molecule attached to the solid support. Through this method, large numbers of individual compounds can be rapidly and efficiently synthesized. For instance, where there are 4 different chemical modules, and where each chemical module contains 20 members, 160,000 beads of different molecular substitution can be produced.
[0357] Combinatorial library synthesis using the “mix and split” technology can be performed either manually or through the use of an automated process. For the manual construction of a combinatorial library, a scientist would perform the various chemical manipulations. For the construction of a combinatorial library through an automated process, the various chemical manipulations will typically be performed robotically. For example, see U.S. Pat. No. 5,463,564.
[0358] For the “multiple parallel synthesis” technology, beads or particles are suspended in a suitable carrier (such as a solvent) in an array of reaction chambers. The beads or particles are provided with a functionalized point of attachment for a chemical module. Different members of a chemical module are added to each individual reaction chamber, providing an array of differently functionalized beads. Where there are 96 separate reaction chambers and 96 different chemical module members, a combinatorial library of 96 compounds is formed. The compounds can be assayed on the solid support, cleaved from the solid support and then assayed, or subjected to the addition of another chemical module.
[0359] Combinatorial library synthesis using the “multiple parallel synthesis” technology can be performed either manually or through the use of an automated process. For the manual construction of a combinatorial library, a scientist would perform the various chemical manipulations. For the construction of a combinatorial library through an automated process, the various chemical manipulations will typically be performed robotically.
Solid Supports
[0360] The solid phase synthesis of the compositions provided herein in one embodiment is performed on a solid support. “Solid support” includes an insoluble substrate that has been appropriately derivatized such that a chemical module can be attached to the surface of the substrate through standard chemical methods. Solid supports include, but are not limited to, beads and particles such as peptide synthesis resins. For example, see Merrifield (1963) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 85:2149-2154; U.S. Pat. No. 4,631,211; and Geysen et al. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad Sci. USA81:3998-4002.
[0361] Solid supports can consist of many materials, limited primarily by the capacity of the material to be functionalized through synthetic methods. Examples of such materials include, but are not limited to, polymers, plastics, resins, polysaccharides, silicon or silica based materials, carbon, metals, inorganic glasses and membranes. Preferred resins include Sasrin resin (a polystyrene resin available from Bachem Bioscience, Switzerland), Wang resin or p-nitrophenylcarbonate Wang resin (PNP resin, Novabiochem), and TentaGel S AC, TentaGel PHB, or TentaGel S NH2resin (polystyrene-polyethylene glycol copolymer resins available from Rapp Polymere, Tubingen, Germany or from Perseptive, Boston).
[0362] The solid support can be purchased with suitable functionality already present such that a chemical module can be attached to the support surface (e.g., Novabiochem, Bachem Bioscience, Rapp Polymere). Alternatively, the solid support can be chemically modified such that a chemical module can be attached to the support surface. Grant (1992) Synthetic Peptides. A User's Guide, W. H. Freeman and Co.; and Herrnkens et al. (1996) Tetrahedron52:4527-4554. One of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the choice of functionality used for attaching a molecule to the solid support will depend on the nature of the compound to be synthesized and the type of solid support. Examples of functionality present on the solid support that can be used to attach a chemical module include, but are not limited to, alkyl or aryl halides, aldehydes, alcohols, carbonates, ketones, amines, sulfides, carboxyl groups, aldehyde groups and sulfonyl groups.
[0363] The functional group on the solid support that permits the attachment of a chemical module is, for example, an alcohol, an amine, an aldehyde, a carbonate, or a diol group. Gordon et al. (1994) J. Med Chem. 37:1385-1401; and Hermkens et al. (1996) Tetrahedron52:4527-4554.
[0364] For making certain combinatorial libraries, one can purchase a solid support with an existing, protected chemical module already attached. An example of such a support is FmocGly Sasrin, which is commercially available from Bachem. Typically, however, the first step of the combinatorial library synthesis is the attachment of a chemical module to the solid support through the existing functionality on the support surface. Examples of chemical reactions that can be used to attach a chemical module to the support include, but are not limited to, nucleophilic displacement of a halide or other leaving group, etherification of an alcohol, esterification of an alcohol, amidation of an amine, carbamation of an amine, reductive amination of a carbonyl compound, acetalization of an aldehyde and ketalization of a ketone. Hermkens et al. (1996) Tetrahedron52:4527-4554.
[0365] The reaction used to attach the chemical module to the solid support is, for example, a carbamation of an amine, a reductive amination of a carbonyl compound or a nucleophilic displacement of a halide or other leaving group. For example, see Hermkens et al. (1996).
[0366] For the attachment of certain chemical modules to the solid support, it may be necessary to mask functionality that is not involved in the attachment process, but that is incompatible with the mode of attachment. A non-limiting example of this type of process is the esterification of an alcohol functionalized solid support, using a hydroxyl-substituted carboxylic acid as the coupling partner. Prior to the esterification reaction, the hydroxyl group of the carboxylic acid would be “protected” through alkylation, silylation, acetylation, or through another method known to one of skill in the art. Strategies for the use of masking or protecting groups have been well-described in the art, such as in Green (1985) Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley.
Methods of Compound Cleavage from a Solid Support
[0367] The cleavage of oxazolidinones from a solid support to produce the corresponding “free” compounds can be accomplished using a variety of methods. For example, a compound can be photolytically cleaved from a solid support (Wang et al. (1976) J. Org. Chem. 41:3258; Rich et al. (1975) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 97:1575-1579), and through nucleophilic attack (U.S. Pat. No. 5,549,974), or through hydrolysis (Hutchins et al. (1994) Tetrahedron Lett. 35:4055-4058). The cleavage of compounds from a solid support to produce soluble compounds is accomplished, for example, using hydrolytic conditions, such as through the addition of trifluoroacetic acid.
Screening
[0368] The libraries of this invention can be used to select one or more bioactive molecules. Preferably, the bioactive molecules possess activity against a cellular target, including but not limited to enzymes and receptors, or a microorganism. A target cellular ligand or microorganism is one that is known or believed to be of importance in the etiology or progression of a disease. Examples of disease states for which amino alcohol, thio alcohol, oxazolidinone and sulfone libraries can be screened include, but are not limited to, inflammation, infection, hypertension, central nervous system disorders, and cardiovascular disorders.
[0369] Several methods have been developed in recent years to screen libraries of compounds to identify bioactive molecules. Methods for isolating library compound species that demonstrate desirable affinity for a receptor or enzyme are well-known in the art.
[0370] For example, an enzyme solution can be mixed with a solution of the compounds of a particular combinatorial library under conditions favorable to enzyme-ligand binding. See Bush et al. (1993) Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy37:851-858; and Daub et al. (1989) Biochemistry27:3701-3708. Specific binding of library compounds to the enzyme can be detected, for instance, by any of the numerous enzyme inhibition assays which are well known in the art. Compounds which are bound to the enzyme are separated readily from compounds which remain free in solution by applying the solution to a suitable separation material such as Sephadex G-25 gel filtration column. Free enzyme and enzyme-ligand complexes pass through the column quickly, while free library compounds are retarded in their progress through the column. The mixture of enzyme-ligand complex and free enzyme is then treated with a suitable denaturing agent, such as guanidinium hydrochloride or urea, to cause release of the ligand from the enzyme. The solution is then injected onto an HPLC column (for example, a Vydac C4 reverse-phase column, and eluted with a gradient of water and acetonitrile ranging from 0% acetonitrile to 80% acetonitrile). Diode array detection provides discrimination of the compounds of the combinatorial library from the enzyme. The compound peaks are then collected and subjected to mass spectrometry for identification.
[0371] An alternate manner of identifying compounds that inhibit an enzyme is to divide the library into separate sublibraries where one step in the synthesis is unique to each sublibrary. To generate a combinatorial library, reactants are mixed together during a step to generate a wide mixture of compounds. At a certain step in the synthesis, however, the resin bearing the synthetic intermediates is divided into several portions, with each portion then undergoing a unique transformation. The resin portions are then (separately) subjected to the rest of the synthetic steps in the combinatorial synthetic method. Each individual resin portion thus constitutes a separate sublibrary. When testing the compounds, if a given sublibrary shows more activity than the other sublibraries, the unique step of that sublibrary is then held fixed. The sublibrary then becomes the new library, with that step fixed, and forms the basis for another round of sublibrary synthesis, where a different step in the synthesis is optimized. This procedure is executed at each step until a final compound is arrived at. The aforementioned method is the generalization of the method described in Geysen, WO 86/00991, for determining peptide “mimotopes,” to the synthetic method of this invention.
[0372] Finding a compound that inhibits an enzyme is performed most readily with free compound in solution. The compounds can also be screened while still bound to the resin used for synthesis; in some applications, this may be the preferable mode of finding compounds with the desired characteristics. For example, if a compound that binds to a specific antibody is desired, the resin-bound library of compounds is contacted with an antibody solution under conditions favoring a stable antibody-compound-resin complex. A fluorescently labeled second antibody that binds to the constant region of the first antibody is then contacted with the antibody-compound-resin complex. This allows identification of a specific bead as carrying the compound recognized by the first antibody binding site. The bead is then physically removed from the resin mixture and subjected to mass spectral analysis. If the synthesis is conducted in a manner such that only one compound is likely to be synthesized on a particular bead, then the binding compound has been identified. If the synthesis is carried out so that many compounds are present on a single bead, the information derived from analysis can be utilized to narrow the synthetic choices for the next round of synthesis and identification.
[0373] The enzyme, antibody, or receptor target need not be in solution. Antibody or enzyme can be immobilized on a column. The library of compounds is then passed over the column, resulting in the retention of strongly binding compounds on the column after weaker-binding and non-binding compounds are washed away. The column is then washed under conditions that dissociate protein-ligand binding, which removes the compounds retained in the initial step. These compounds are then analyzed, and synthesized separately in quantity for further testing. Similarly, cells bearing surface receptors are contacted with a solution of library compounds. The cells bearing bound compounds are readily separated from the solution containing non-binding compounds. The cells are then washed with a solution which dissociates the bound ligand from the cell surface receptor. Again, the cells are separated from the solution, and the solution analyzed.

[0374] The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions which comprise a bioactive oxazolidinone compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The compositions of the invention include those in a form adapted for oral, topical or parenteral use and can be used for the treatment of bacterial infection in mammals including humans.
[0375] The antibiotic compounds, also referred to herein as antimicrobial compounds, according to the invention can be formulated for administration in any convenient way for use in human or veterinary medicine, by analogy with other antibiotics. Such methods are known in the art and are not described in detail herein.
[0376] The composition can be formulated for administration by any route known in the art, such as subdermal, by-inhalation, oral, topical or parenteral. The compositions may be in any form known in the art, including but not limited to tablets, capsules, powders, granules, lozenges, creams or liquid preparations, such as oral or sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions.
[0377] The topical formulations of the present invention can be presented as, for instance, ointments, creams or lotions, eye ointments and eye or ear drops, impregnated dressings and aerosols, and may contain appropriate conventional additives such as preservatives, solvents to assist drug penetration and emollients in ointments and creams.
[0378] The formulations may also contain compatible conventional carriers, such as cream or ointment bases and ethanol or oleyl alcohol for lotions. Such carriers may be present, for example, from about 1% up to about 98% of the formulation. For example, they may form up to about 80% of the formulation.
[0379] Tablets and capsules for oral administration may be in unit dose presentation form, and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrollidone; fillers, for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; tabletting lubricants, for example magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol or silica; disintegrants, for example potato starch; or acceptable wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate. The tablets may be coated according to methods will known in normal pharmaceutical practice.
[0380] Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives, such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, methyl cellulose, glucose syrup, gelatin, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, aluminium stearate gel or hydrogenated edible fats, emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; non-aqueous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example almond oil, oily esters such as glycerine, propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid, and, if desired, conventional flavoring or coloring agents.
[0381] For parenteral administration, fluid unit dosage forms are prepared utilizing the compound and a sterile vehicle, water being preferred. The compound, depending on the vehicle and concentration used, can be either suspended or dissolved in the vehicle or other suitable solvent. In preparing solutions, the compound can be dissolved in water for injection and filter sterilized before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, agents such as a local anesthetic preservative and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stability, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum. The dry lyophilized powder is then sealed in the vial and an accompanying vial of water for injection may be supplied to reconstitute the liquid prior to use. Parenteral suspensions are prepared in substantially the same manner except that the compound is suspended in the vehicle instead of being dissolved and sterilization cannot be accomplished by filtration. The compound can be sterilized by exposure to ethylene oxide before suspending in the sterile vehicle. Advantageously, a surfactant or wetting agent is included in the composition to facilitate uniform distribution of the compound.
[0382] The compositions may contain, for example, from about 0.1% by weight, e.g., from about 10-60% by weight, of the active material, depending on the method of administration. Where the compositions comprise dosage units, each unit will contain, for example, from about 50-500 mg of the active ingredient. The dosage as employed for adult human treatment will range, for example, from about 100 to 3000 mg per day, for instance 1500 mg per day depending on the route and frequency of administration. Such a dosage corresponds to about 1.5 to 50 mg/kg per day. Suitably the dosage is, for example, from about 5 to 20 mg/kg per day.

[0570] Antimicrobial Activity for Representative Compounds in Animals. In vivo data was obtained for representative compounds i, ii, and iii to demonstrate the practical utility of the oxazolidinone compounds for treatment of a bacterial infection in animals.
[0571] CD1 female mice (Charles River Laboratories) weighing 18-22 grams were injected intraperitoneally with 0.2 ml of a suspension containing 3*107cfu of S. aureus(Smith strain) in 7% hog gastric mucosa (mucin). The mice were treated, either intravenously (i.v.) or orally (p.o.), 1 h and 5 h after infection. Five groups of six mice each were given different dosage levels representing two-fold dilutions of each compound (range of 25 mg/kg-1.56 mg/kg). The compounds were all formulated in 40% aqueous hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin in PBS and untreated controls were dosed with vehicle alone.
[0572] Mortality in each group was monitored daily for 6 days and cumulative mortality was used to determine the 50% protective doses (PD50) which were calculated using the method of Reed and Muench [(a) Lorian, V. Antibiotics in laboratory medicine. Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins. 1996, p. 635-636; (b) Reed, L. J.; Muench H. A simple method of estimating fifty percent endpoints. Am. J. Hyg. 1938, 27, pp. 493-497] (Table 1). For animals receiving vehicle alone, there was a 79% mortality rate (19/24) in the p.o. dosing group and an 88% mortality rate (15/17) in the i.v. group; giving a total mortality rate for untreated controls of 83%.
[0573] PD50for above compounds was in a range 2.3-7.2 mg/kg for i.v. administration and 7.5-14.9 mg/kg for p.o. administration, with compound iii being the most preferred.
