Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate, formerly known as T-3262 and A-61827, is a potent fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat susceptible infections. It has a controversial safety profile in relation to other fluoroquinolones. It is associated with severe thrombocytopenia and nephritis, and hepatotoxicity. It is sold in Japan under the brand name Ozex.

| ln Vitro |
Antibacterial activities against S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, streptococci, enterococci, Bacteroides fragilis, Clostridium difficile, and Clostridium perfringens have been demonstrated by tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262) (0.05-3.13 μg/mL; 18 h)[2].
Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) exhibited a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The MIC90 values against clinical isolates were as follows: Staphylococcus aureus: 0.05 μg/mL; Staphylococcus epidermidis: 0.05 μg/mL; Streptococcus pyogenes: 0.39 μg/mL; Streptococcus pneumoniae: 0.10 μg/mL; Enterococcus faecalis: 0.39 μg/mL; Enterococcus faecium: 1.56 μg/mL. For Enterobacteriaceae such as Escherichia coli, MIC90 was 0.05 μg/mL, comparable to ciprofloxacin. Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, MIC90 was 0.39 μg/mL, equal to ciprofloxacin. It was also active against Haemophilus influenzae (MIC90 0.0125 μg/mL), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (MIC90 0.0125 μg/mL), and obligate anaerobes like Bacteroides fragilis (MIC90 1.56 μg/mL). Against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, its MIC90 (0.20 μg/mL) was eightfold lower than ofloxacin. It maintained activity against nalidixic acid-resistant and gentamicin-resistant gram-negative bacteria. [1] Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) showed bactericidal activity against S. aureus Smith, E. coli ML4707, and P. aeruginosa GN11189 at concentrations near its MIC, reducing viable cells to less than 1% within 2-4 hours, though regrowth was observed for S. aureus and P. aeruginosa at the MIC after 24 hours. [1] The frequency of spontaneous mutants resistant to Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) was low. For S. aureus Smith, frequency was 1.3 x 10^-7 at 2x MIC and <7.7 x 10^-9 at 4x MIC. For E. coli ML4707, frequency was <1.1 x 10^-9 at 2x MIC. For P. aeruginosa GN11189, frequency was 3.8 x 10^-9 at 2x MIC and <1.3 x 10^-9 at 4x MIC. [1] |
| ln Vivo |
The antibacterial activity of tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262) (oral gavage; 0.16–13.39 mg/kg; once) against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa has been demonstrated in vivo[2].
In a murine systemic infection model, the oral ED50 of Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) against S. aureus Smith infection was 1.65 mg/kg, which was about 6 times lower than that of ofloxacin and about 20 times lower than that of norfloxacin. [1] Against systemic infection caused by E. coli ML4707, the oral ED50 was 0.22 mg/kg, comparable to ciprofloxacin (0.33 mg/kg). [1] Against systemic infection caused by P. aeruginosa GN11189, the oral ED50 was 10.13 mg/kg, superior to ofloxacin (24.04 mg/kg) and norfloxacin (70.71 mg/kg), and comparable to ciprofloxacin (9.48 mg/kg).

| Enzyme Assay |
The inhibitory effect on E. coli DNA gyrase supercoiling activity was assessed. Crude enzyme was prepared from E. coli K-12 strain KL-16 by lysozyme treatment and ammonium sulfate fractionation. The enzyme was further purified using a novobiocin-Sepharose column. The reaction mixture contained subunit A and B proteins, the drug solution, and pBR322 DNA relaxed by topoisomerase I. The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 2 hours. The reaction was stopped by adding proteinase K to a final concentration of 1%. The DNA products were analyzed by 0.8% agarose gel electrophoresis at 15 V/cm. The gel was stained with ethidium bromide and photographed under UV light. The 50% inhibitory dose (ID50) was defined as the drug concentration that reduced supercoiling activity by half, determined by densitometric tracing of the gel negatives. [1]

| Animal Protocol |
Animal Model: Male Slc:ICR mice infected with S. aureus[2]
Dosage: 1.27-2.15 mg/kg Administration: Oral gavage; 1.27-2.15 mg/kg; once Result: demonstrated a 1.62 mg/kg (body weight) 50% effective dose (ED50) seven days post-infection. revealed a MIC of 0.0125 μg/mL. The in vivo antibacterial activity was evaluated in a murine systemic infection model. Male ICR mice (19-21 g) were used. Overnight cultures of test strains (S. aureus Smith, E. coli ML4707, P. aeruginosa GN11189) in brain heart infusion broth were suspended in 5% gastric mucin (for S. aureus and P. aeruginosa) or saline (for E. coli). A 0.2 mL bacterial suspension, containing a challenge dose approximately 10 times the minimal lethal dose, was administered intraperitoneally to each mouse. Drugs, including Tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827), were suspended in 0.2% methyl cellulose and administered orally immediately after infection. Survival rates were monitored for 7 days post-infection, and the 50% effective dose (ED50) was calculated using the probit method. [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
Toshufloxacin tosylate hydrate is a racemic mixture composed of equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-toshufloxacin tosylate hydrates. It possesses antibacterial, anti-infective, DNA synthesis inhibitory, hepatotoxic, and topoisomerase IV inhibitory effects. It comprises (S)-toshufloxacin tosylate hydrate, (R)-toshufloxacin tosylate hydrate, and toshufloxacin tosylate.
Toshufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) is a novel fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent, chemically named p-tosylate of DL-7-(3-amino-1-pyrrolidinyl)-1-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthidine-3-carboxylic acid monohydrate. [1] Like other fluoroquinolones, their mechanism of action involves the inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase, which introduces negative supercoils into DNA. This study shows that fluoroquinolones, including T-3262, can inhibit DNA gyrase activity at low concentrations, while older generation quinolones such as pipemidic acid cannot achieve this effect. [1] No cross-resistance was observed between tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) and β-lactam or aminoglycoside antibiotics. However, partial cross-resistance was observed between fluoroquinolones and nalidixic acid, suggesting that they may share a common target enzyme. [1] This study suggests that tosufloxacin tosylate hydrate (T-3262, A61827) has broad-spectrum and potent in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity, and therefore may be used clinically to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Its indications may extend beyond urinary tract infections treated with older generation quinolones to respiratory and soft tissue infections. [1] |
