Tedizolid phosphate is approved for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections in adults. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics of tedizolid in elderly subjects to guide dosing recommendations. In an open-label phase 1 study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01496677), 14 elderly (≥65 years) and 14 younger control (18-45 years) subjects each received a single oral dose of tedizolid phosphate 200 mg. Blood samples were collected before dose and more than 72 hours after dose. The pharmacokinetic parameters of tedizolid after a single dose were similar in both age groups. Geometric mean ratios (elderly/younger controls) and corresponding 90% confidence intervals were maximum observed plasma concentration (C ), 1.091 (0.917-1.297); AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC ), 1.132 (0.954-1.343). Tedizolid plasma exposure was similar in elderly and younger control subjects. The findings indicated that after intravenous or oral administration of tedizolid phosphate 200 mg once daily, no dose adjustment was warranted in elderly subjects to achieve therapeutic levels.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the cumulative fraction of response of various dosage regimens of tedizolid phosphate against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae in children, adolescents, and adults.
Methods: Monte Carlo simulations were performed using previously published pharmacokinetic parameters and pharmacodynamic data to evaluate the efficacy of the simulated dosage strategies in terms of area under the concentration-time curve/minimum inhibitory concentration targets of tedizolid.
Results: According to the results of the Monte Carlo simulations, currently approved dosage regimens of tedizolid phosphate were effective in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs) caused by methicillin-susceptible S.

Purpose: Cisplatin is a low-cost clinical anti-tumor drug widely used to treat solid tumors. However, its use could damage cochlear hair cells, leading to irreversible hearing loss. Currently, there appears one drug approved in clinic only used for reducing ototoxicity associated with cisplatin in pediatric patients, which needs to further explore other candidate drugs.

Background: Tedizolid is an oxazolidinone anti-MRSA drug with included in the National Health Insurance Drug Price List in 2018. The effect of hemodialysis on tedizolid phosphate concentrations has been reported; pre-dialysis concentrations decreased by 10% compared to post- dialysis concentrations. However, the material of the dialysis membrane remains unknown.
