Design, synthesis and antifungal activity of the novel water-soluble prodrug of antifungal triazole CS-758.
    Chemical & pharmaceutical bulletin, 2010, Volume: 58, Issue:6

    CS-758 was selected as a candidate for clinical trials, but since its water-solubility was insufficient for an injectable formulation, phosphoryl ester prodrugs were designed. In this study, the synthesis and evaluation of these injectable prodrugs are described. Phosphoryl ester 17 h was soluble in water, and was stable in both water and in a solid state. 17 h was converted to CS-758 in human liver microsome and was also converted to CS-758 in rats after intravenous (i.v.) administration with good conversion speed and efficiency. 17 h (i.v.) reduced the viable cell counts in kidneys in a murine hematogenous Candida albicans infection model and in lungs in a murine pulmonary Aspergillus fumigatus infection model, wherein the effects were comparable to or slightly superior to that of CS-758 (per os).

In vitro and in vivo activities of CS-758 (R-120758), a new triazole antifungal agent.
    Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2002, Volume: 46, Issue:2

    The activity of CS-758 (R-120758), a new triazole antifungal agent, was evaluated and compared with those of fluconazole, itraconazole, and amphotericin B in vitro and with those of fluconazole and itraconazole in vivo. CS-758 exhibited potent in vitro activity against clinically important fungi. The activity of CS-758 against Candida spp. was superior to that of fluconazole and comparable or superior to those of itraconazole and amphotericin B. CS-758 retained potent activity against Candida albicans strains with low levels of susceptibility to fluconazole (fluconazole MIC, 4 to 32 microg/ml). Against Aspergillus spp. and Cryptococcus neoformans, the activity of CS-758 was at least fourfold superior to those of the other drugs tested. CS-758 also exhibited potent in vivo activity against murine systemic infections caused by C. albicans, C. neoformans, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Aspergillus flavus. The 50% effective doses against these infections were 0.41 to 5.0 mg/kg of body weight. These results suggest that CS-758 may be useful in the treatment of candidiasis, cryptococcosis, and aspergillosis.
