Orally bioavailable pivalyl ester prodrug form of the carbapenem class broad-spectrum β-lactam antibiotic Tebipenem (LJC 11,036; SPR859).
Tebipenem pivoxil (L-084I; ME1211; SPR994; Tebi-pivoxil; TBM-PI) corresponds to the orally bioavailable pivalyl ester prodrug form of the carbapenem class broad-spectrum β-lactam antibiotic Tebipenem (LJC 11,036; SPR859; TBM). TBM is potent against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including penicillin-resistant S. pneumoniae (PRSP) and many β-lactamase-producing strains, while being less effective against methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), S. marcescens, and P. aeruginosa. TBM is 2- to 64-fold more potent than imipenem, cefdinir, and faropenem against clinical isolates from respiratory and urinary-tract infections.
