The in vitro activities of three newly developed quinolone drugs (T-3262, NY-198, and fleroxacin [AM-833; RO 23-6240]) against 10 strains of clinically isolated Chlamydia trachomatis were assessed and compared with those of other quinolones and minocycline. T-3262 (MIC for 90% of isolates tested, 0.1 microgram/ml) was the most active of the quinolones. The NY-198 and fleroxacin MICs for 90% of isolates were 3.13 and 62.5 micrograms/ml, respectively.
