A pyridodiazepine amine inhibitor of Helicobacter pylori glutamate racemase (MurI) was characterized. The compound was selectively active against H. pylori, and growth suppression was shown to be mediated through the inhibition of MurI by several methods. In killing kinetics experiments, the compound showed concentration-independent activity, with about a 2-log loss of viability in 24 h. A demonstration of efficacy in a mouse infection model was attempted but not achieved, and this was attributed to the failure to attain extended exposure levels above the MIC for >95% of the time. This index and magnitude were derived from pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) studies with amoxicillin, another inhibitor of peptidoglycan biosynthesis that showed slow killing kinetics similar to those of the pyridodiazepine amines. These studies indicate that MurI and other enzymes involved in peptidoglycan biosynthesis may be less desirable targets for monotherapy directed against H. pylori if once-a-day dosing is required.
