In vitro activities of the ketolide HMR 3647 against recent gram-positive clinical isolates and Haemophilus influenzae. 1998

The Clinical Microbiology Institute, Wilsonville, Oregon 97070, USA.

The ketolide HMR 3647 (previously RU 66647) was evaluated against 2, 563 recent clinical isolates of gram-positive pathogens and 200 Haemophilus influenzae isolates. HMR 3647 was active against macrolide-resistant streptococci, including pneumococci, but was not active against macrolide- or lincosamide-resistant staphylococci. Against H. influenzae, the potency of HMR 3647 was similar to that of azithromycin.
