A carbenapenem antibiotic
Tebipenem is an orally available carbapenem antibiotic, shows broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, except for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Tebipenem exhibits slow tight-binding inhibition at low micromolar concentrations versus the chromogenic substrate nitrocefin, and apparent Km and kcat values of 0.8 μM and 0.03 min-1, respectively[1]. Tebipenem shows potent activity against B. pseudomallei, with MIC50 and MIC90 values of both 2 mg/L[2]. Tebipenem shows good activity against S. pneumoniae, with the MIC range of ≤0.25 μg/mL in all of the S. pneumoniae isolates[3].
