Newly synthesized benzoxazinorifamycin, KRM-1648, was studied for its in vivo anti-Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) activities. When the MICs were determined by the agar dilution method with Middlebrook 7H11 agar medium, KRM-1648 exhibited similarly potent in vitro antimicrobial activities against the MAC isolated from AIDS and non-AIDS patients, indicating possible usefulness of KRM-1648 against AIDS-associated MAC infections. KRM-1648 exhibited potent therapeutic activity against experimental murine infections induced by M. intracellulare N-260 (virulent strain) and N-478, which has much weaker virulence. Similarly, KRM-1648 exhibited an excellent therapeutic efficacy against M. intracellulare infection induced in NK-cell-deficient beige mice (as a plausible model for AIDS-associated MAC infection), in which a much more progressed state of gross lesions and bacterial loads at the sites of infection were observed. When the infected beige mice were killed at weeks 4 and 8, obvious therapeutic efficacy was seen on the basis of reduction in the incidence and degree of lung lesions and bacterial loads in the lungs and spleen with infections due to M. intracellulare N-241, N-256, and N-260. In this case, the efficacy was the highest in N-260 infection, followed by strain N-241. When mice were observed until infection-induced death, survival time of the infected beige mice was found to be prolonged by KRM treatment. However, KRM-1648 was not efficacious in suppressing the progression of pulmonary lesions and the increase in bacterial loads at the sites of infection, including lungs and spleen, at the late phase of infection. This may imply some difficulty with chemotherapy for AIDS-associated MAC infection, even with KRM-1648 treatment, which has excellent in vitro and in vivo anti-MAC activities, as shown in present study.
