VXc-486 (SPR-719) is a novel and potent gyrase B inhibitor with high bactericidal activity and the potential for treatment of tuberculosis and nontuberculosis mycobacterial infections. VXc-486 potently inhibits multiple drug-sensitive isolates and drug-resistant isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with MICs of 0.03 to 0.30 μg/ml and 0.08 to 5.48 μg/ml, respectively.
| Targets |
SPR719 (VXc-486) is a novel aminobenzimidazole inhibitor targeting the ATPase subunit GyrB (DNA gyrase B) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In a cell-free enzymatic assay using purified M. tuberculosis gyrase B, it showed an IC50 of <0.16 µg/mL and a Ki of <0.39 µg/mL. [1]
The compound also inhibits the homologous GyrB/ParE subunits in other bacteria, but shows negligible activity against human topoisomerase IIα. [1] |

| ln Vitro |
SPR719 (VXc-486) exhibits potent antimycobacterial activity against a wide range of drug-sensitive (DS) and drug-resistant (DR) M. tuberculosis isolates, with MICs ranging from 0.03 to 0.30 µg/mL for DS isolates and 0.08 to 5.48 µg/mL for DR isolates. [1]
It is bactericidal against M. tuberculosis Erdman strain, achieving ≥3 log reduction in CFU after 14 days at 4× MIC (0.24 µg/mL). [1] The compound is active against non-replicating (dormant) M. tuberculosis in a low-oxygen recovery assay (LORA), with an IC50 of 0.26 µg/mL against H37Rv, which is more potent than moxifloxacin (IC50 1.60 µg/mL) and gatifloxacin (IC50 8.81 µg/mL). [1] It inhibits intracellular M. tuberculosis growth in THP-1 macrophages with an IC90 of 0.3 µg/mL. [1] SPR719 (VXc-486) also shows activity against nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), including M. abscessus (MIC50 1.0 µg/mL, MIC90 4.0 µg/mL), M. kansasii (MIC50 0.06 µg/mL, MIC90 0.5 µg/mL), M. avium (MIC 0.12–0.23 µg/mL), and Nocardia spp. (MIC 0.1–1.0 µg/mL). [1] |
| ln Vivo |
In a chronic tuberculosis mouse model (infected with M. tuberculosis Erdman), oral administration of SPR719 (VXc-486) (100 mg/kg twice daily) or its phosphate prodrug pVXc-486 (100 mg/kg twice daily) for 4 weeks significantly reduced lung bacterial burdens compared to early and late control groups. [1]
pVXc-486 showed superior in vivo efficacy compared to the parent compound, likely due to improved lung exposure. [1] When combined with rifapentine-pyrazinamide or bedaquiline-pyrazinamide in a relapse model, pVXc-486 sterilized M. tuberculosis infection in mice. [1] In a latent TB infection model, pVXc-486 monotherapy (100 mg/kg) showed activity comparable to isoniazid and approached that of rifampin. [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
The enzymatic activity of M. tuberculosis gyrase B was assessed using a reconstituted heterotetrameric A₂B₂ complex. [1]
The assay couples ATP hydrolysis to the conversion of NADH to NAD⁺, monitored by absorbance decrease at 340 nm over 20 minutes using a microtiter plate reader. [1] The IC50 and Ki values for SPR719 (VXc-486) were determined from this assay. [1] |
| Cell Assay |
For intracellular activity, THP-1 macrophages were infected with luciferase-expressing M. tuberculosis H37Ra at an MOI of 2:1. [1]
After infection, cells were treated with compounds for 5 days, followed by luminescence measurement to assess bacterial viability. [1] Compound cytotoxicity was evaluated using a cell viability assay. [1] Checkerboard MIC assays were performed to evaluate drug combination effects, calculating fractional inhibitory concentrations (FICs). [1] |
| Animal Protocol |
In chronic TB models, mice were infected via aerosol or intranasal route with M. tuberculosis Erdman or H37Rv. [1]
Treatment began 3 weeks post-infection, administered orally 5 times per week for 4–8 weeks. [1] SPR719 (VXc-486) was dissolved in vitamin E TPGS for dosing, while pVXc-486 was dissolved in 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose. [1] Lung bacterial burdens were assessed by plating homogenates on 7H10 agar. [1] In latent TB models, mice were immunized with BCG before M. tuberculosis challenge, followed by treatment for 1–2 months. [1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
pVXc-486 is a phosphate prodrug that is rapidly converted to SPR719 (VXc-486) after oral administration, and the prodrug is undetectable in plasma after administration. [1]
The AUC of VXc-486 increases proportionally over a dose range of 3 to 100 mg/kg, while the Cmax increases proportionally within the same dose range. [1] Compared to the parent compound, pVXc-486 results in higher pulmonary exposure to VXc-486 after administration. [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
SPR719 (VXc-486) is a DNA gyrase B inhibitor that is effective against fluoroquinolone-resistant strains because it targets a different DNA gyrase subunit (GyrB) than fluoroquinolone drugs (GyrA). [1] The resistance rate of VXc-486 is approximately 10⁻⁸, and identified resistance mutations include A92S and S208A in GyrB. [1] The compound exhibits slow bactericidal kinetics in vitro but is potent against dormant bacteria. [1] It is considered a promising candidate for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacterial infections. [1]
