Delafloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic to treat skin infections, exhibits a broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. The first randomized, open-label phase I clinical trial was conducted to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous delafloxacin in the Chinese population. A population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model based on the clinical trial was conducted by NONMEM software.

Chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonate, commercially known as F-53B, has been associated with adverse birth outcomes. However, the reproductive toxicology of F-53B on the placenta remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we examined the impact of F-53B on placental injury and its underlying molecular mechanisms in vivo.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA vaccine enables quick upgrade of antigen sequence to combat emerging new variants. In an observer-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial, immunologically naïve 300 adults and 150 older participants were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive two doses of 20 µg or 30 µg of a SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine (SYS6006) or placebo. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded through 30 days after the second dose.

Article Synopsis
  • Vaccination with the SYS6006 mRNA vaccine shows promise in preventing serious illness from SARS-CoV-2, with trials assessing both safety and immune response in adult and elderly populations.* -
  • In two phase 1 trials, participants received either SYS6006 or a placebo, revealing that most adverse events were mild, with injection-site pain being the most common issue reported.* -
  • The vaccine demonstrated a strong immune response, particularly against the Delta variant, and a moderate response to Omicron variants, indicating good safety and effectiveness for individuals aged 18 and older.*
