LCB01-0371……..new oxazolidinone in phase 1 has improved activity against Gram-positive pathogens


 

LCB01-0371

3-[3-Fluoro-4-(1-methyl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazin-4-yl)phenyl]-5(R)-(hydroxymethyl)oxazolidin-2-one

LegoChem Biosciences (South Korea)

Phase I, Gram-positive

308.3082

C14 H17 F N4 O3

LCB01-0371 is being developed by LegoChem Bio. This new oxazolidinone has improved activity against Gram-positive pathogens and has good pharmacokinetic profiles in animals [103].

The compound is under Phase I clinical development to assess the safety and tolerability of the compound. The company is currently recruiting participants to be part of the trial [103,104].

read

LCB01-0371 is a new oxazolidinone with cyclic amidrazone. In vitro activity of LCB01-0371 against 624 clinical isolates was evaluated and compared with those of linezolid, vancomycin, and other antibiotics. LCB01-0371 showed good activity against Gram-positive pathogens. In vivo activity of LCB01-0371 against systemic infections in mice was also evaluated. LCB01-0371 was more active than linezolid against these systemic infections. LCB01-0371 showed bacteriostatic activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

As examples of oxazolidinone compounds including an oxazolidinone ring, 3-phenyl-2-oxazolidinone derivatives having one or two substituent(s) are described in US Patent Nos. 4,948,801, 4,461,773, 4,340,606, 4,476,136, 4,250,318 and 4,128,654, and 3-[(mono-substituted)phenyl]-2-oxazolidinone derivatives represented by Chemical Formula A are described in EP 0312000, J. Med. Chem.32, 1673(1989), J. Med. Chem. 33, 2569 (1990), Tetrahedron Lett. 45,123(1989), and the like.

[Chemical Formula A]

 

Figure PCTKR2009005376-appb-I000002

And, oxazolidinone derivatives represented by Chemical Formula B and Chemical Formula C were synthesized by Pharmacia & Upjohn (WO 93/23384, WO 95/14684 and WO 95/07271). The compound of Chemical Formula B, “linezolid”, is the first oxazolidinone antibiotic and is marketed under the trade name “zyvox” for oral administration and injection, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, most of synthetic oxazolidinone compounds are associated with some limitations, such as toxicity, low in vivo efficacy and low solubility. As for linezolid, solubility in water is only about 3 mg/mL, which causes its use as injection limited.

[Chemical Formula B]

 

Figure PCTKR2009005376-appb-I000003

[Chemical Formula C]

 

Figure PCTKR2009005376-appb-I000004

WO 93/09103 discloses phenyl oxazolidinone derivatives having a heterocyclic ring, including pyridine, thiazole, indole, oxazole, quinol, etc., at the 4-position of the phenyl group. But, the substituents of the heterocyclic ring are merely simple alkyl or amino group, and the activities are not so excellent.

In order to solve these problems, WO 01/94342 discloses phenyloxazolidinone derivatives having various pyridine or phenyl derivatives at the 4-position of the phenyl group. The synthetic compounds have wide antibacterial spectrum and excellent antibacterial activity. Although the oxazolidinone compounds having various pyridine derivatives at the 4-position of the phenyl group of oxazolidinone have wider antibacterial spectrum and excellent antibacterial activity as compared to linezolid, most of them have aqueous solubility of 30 ㎍/mL or less, and thus have limitation in preparing injections.

TR-700 and TR-701, represented by Chemical Formula D, are developed by Dong-A Pharmaceutical and recently licensed to Trius Therapeutics. TR-701 is a prodrug of TR-700 and it is in the phase II clinical trial. TR-701 solves the solubility problem via formation of prodrug from TR-700, exhibits an antibacterial activity superior to that of linezolid. However, the compound shows higher toxicities (cytotoxicity, MAO profile, myelosuppression, etc.) than linezolid, and, thus, is expected to have many limitations.

[Chemical Formula D]

 

Figure PCTKR2009005376-appb-I000005

As described above, a compound having superior antibacterial activity, satisfactory solubility and lower toxicity is yet to be found.

The inventors of the present invention have synthesized novel oxazolidinone derivatives in order to develop antibiotics having superior antibacterial activity as compared to existing antibiotics and having higher solubility for easier preparation into oral administration and injection formulations. The novel oxazolidinone derivatives according to the present invention have been confirmed to have superior antibacterial activity and significantly improved antibacterial spectrum.

Especially, the cyclic amidoxime or cyclic amidrazone compound presented by the present invention has not been studied before. Whereas acyclic amidoxime or amidrazone is relatively well known, the cyclic amidoxime or cyclic amidrazone compound like those disclosed in the present invention is hardly known. Introduction of the cyclic form results in remarkably improved absorptivity and allows the formation of a salt having an adequate basicity, thereby greatly increasing solubility in water. The increased solubility in water makes it possible to prepare injections without using a prodrug and with little toxicity.

A safe, cheap and effective method for slow-freezing human stem cells


Lyranara.me's avatarLyra Nara Blog

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) show great potential and versatility in regenerative medicine and new therapeutic approaches to fight disease. Patient-specific, individualized treatments using stem cells have even been generated for a number of diseases. Although further research into hPSCs is needed in order to harness their full potential, preserving the stem cells and storing them in the large numbers required for research has proved difficult.

Teruo Akuta and colleagues at the RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology, together with scientists from the Foundation for Biomedical Research and Innovation, have now developed a cost-effective, efficient and reliable slow-freezing method for preserving hPSCs in large numbers with a high survival rate.

Vitrification, which involves the use of cryoprotectants to chill cells to low temperatures without freezing, and conventional slow-freezing techniques are currently used for the cryopreservation of hPSCs. “Vitrification using liquid nitrogen is a highly skilled task,” notes Akuta, “and is not…

Plazomicin…………against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli.


 

File:Plazomicin flat.svg

Plazomicin

6′-(hydroxylethyl)-1-(haba)-sisomicin

Plazomicin is a neoglycoside antibiotic with activity against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negive pathogens. Plazomicin showed potent in vitro activity against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli.

Synonyms:   O-2-Amino-2,3,4,6-tetradeoxy-6-[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-α-D-glycero-hex-4-enopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-[3-deoxy-4-C-methyl-3-(methylamino)-β-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1→6)]-N1-[(2S)-4-amino-2-hydroxy-1-oxobutyl]-2-deoxy-D-streptamine; ACHN 490;
CAS Number:   1154757-24-0
Achaogen (USA)Phase II completed
Mol. Formula:   C25H48N6O10
Aminoglycosides, Broad-spectrum,
Mol. Weight:   592.68

To continue the development of plazomicin, the company has received a contract option of US$ 60M from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to support a global Phase III clinical study. The study will evaluate plazomicin in treating patients with serious Gram-negative bacterial infections due to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. The study is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2013 [4].

 

Achaogen is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company passionately committed to the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel antibacterials to treat multi-drug resistant, or MDR, gram-negative infections.

Achaogen Inc.jpg

Achaogen (a-KAY-o-jen) is developing plazomicin, its lead product candidate, for the treatment of serious bacterial infections due to MDR Enterobacteriaceae, including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, or CRE. In 2013, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified CRE as a “nightmare bacteria” and an immediate public health threat that requires “urgent and aggressive action.” We expect to initiate a Phase 3 superiority trial of plazomicin in the first quarter of 2014.

CRE are one of many types of MDR gram-negative pathogens threatening patients. Bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosaAcinetobacter baumannii, and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae each pose “serious” resistance threats, according to the CDC, and also drive a great need for new, safe, and effective antibiotics. We have assembled the chemistry and microbiology expertise and capabilities required to develop new agents for the treatment of gram-negative infections. Plazomicin was the first clinical candidate from our gram-negative antibiotic discovery engine. In addition, our research and development pipeline includes two antipseudomonal programs targeting P. aeruginosa—a program to discover and develop small molecule inhibitors of LpxC, which is an enzyme essential for the synthesis of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria, and a therapeutic antibody program. We are also pursuing small molecule research programs targeting other essential gram-negative enzymes.

Achaogen has built an exceptional research and development team with deep expertise in the discovery and development of new drugs from research through commercialization. Our executive team has over 60 years of combined industry experience, and a proven track record of leadership, global registration, and lifecycle management for over 20 products. Our facility is located on the shores of the San Francisco Bay, ten minutes from the San Francisco International Airport, and only fifteen minutes from downtown San Francisco.

The condensation of 3-chloro-2,4,5-trifluorobenzoylacetic acid ethyl ester (I) with (1R,2S)-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-fluorocyclopropylamine (III) and ethyl orthoformate (II) in hot acetic anhydride gives (1R,2S)-2-(3-chloro-2,4,5-trifluorobenzoyl)-3-(2-fluorocyclopropylamino)acrylic acid ethyl ester (IV). The cyclization of (IV) by means of NaH yields the quinolone (V), which is hydrolyzed with HCl to the free acid (VI). The condensation of (VI) with 7(S)-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane (VII) by means of triethylamine in refluxing acetonitrile affords the protected final product (VIII), which is finally deprotected with trifluoroacetic acid and anisole.

 

The chiral intermediate (1R,2S)-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-fluorocyclopropylamine (III) is obtained as follows: 1) The cyclization of butadiene (IX) with dibromofluoromethane by means of BuONa, followed by oxidation with KMnO4, esterification with ethanol – sulfuric acid and reduction with tributyltin hydride gives 2-fluorocyclopropanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester as a cis/trans mixture (X), which is separated by crystallization. The cis-racemic-isomer (XI) is hydrolyzed with NaOH to the corresponding acid (XII), which is condensed with (R)-alpha-methylbenzylamine (XIII) by means of diphenyl chlorophosphate to give the mixture of diastereomers (XIV). This mixture is separated by crystallization, yielding pure (1S,2S)-2-fluoro-N-[alpha(R)-methylbenzyl]cyclopropanecarboxamide (XV), which is hydrolyzed with HCl to the corresponding free acid (XVI). Finally, this compound is converted into (III) by treatment with diphenylphosphoryl azide in refluxing tert-butanol.

 

 

b) The intermediate 7(S)-(tert-Butoxycarbonylamino)-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane (VII) can also be obtained as follows: 1) The cyclopropanation of ethyl acetoacetate (XXXI) with 1,2-dibromoethane (XXXII) by means of K2CO3 in DMF gives 1-acetylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (XXXIII), which is brominated with Br2 in ethanol yielding the bromoacetyl derivative (XXXIV). The cyclization of (XXXI) with (R)-alpha-methylbenzylamine (XIII) by means of triethylamine affords 5-[1(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane-4,7-dione (XXXV), which by reaction with hydroxylamine is converted into the monooxime (XXXVI). The reduction of (XXXVI) with H2 over RaNi in methanol affords 7-amino-5-[1(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptan-4-one as a diastereomeric mixture (XXXVII) + (XXXVIII), which is separated by column chromatography. The reduction of the (7S)-isomer (XXXVIII) with LiAlH4 in THF gives 7(S)-amino-5-[1(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane (XXXIX), which is protected in the usual way to the tert-butoxycarbonyl derivative (XL). Finally, this compound is debenzylated to (VII) by hydrogenation with H2 over Pd/C in ethanol.

 

 

The chiral intermediate (1R,2S)-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-fluorocyclopropylamine (III) is obtained as follows: 1) The cyclization of butadiene (IX) with dibromofluoromethane by means of BuONa, followed by oxidation with KMnO4, esterification with ethanol – sulfuric acid and reduction with tributyltin hydride gives 2-fluorocyclopropanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester as a cis/trans mixture (X), which is separated by crystallization. The cis-racemic-isomer (XI) is hydrolyzed with NaOH to the corresponding acid (XII), which is condensed with (R)-alpha-methylbenzylamine (XIII) by means of diphenyl chlorophosphate to give the mixture of diastereomers (XIV). This mixture is separated by crystallization, yielding pure (1S,2S)-2-fluoro-N-[alpha(R)-methylbenzyl]cyclopropanecarboxamide (XV), which is hydrolyzed with HCl to the corresponding free acid (XVI). Finally, this compound is converted into (III) by treatment with diphenylphosphoryl azide in refluxing tert-butanol.

 

 

b) The intermediate 7(S)-(tert-Butoxycarbonylamino)-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane (VII) can also be obtained as follows: 2) The reaction of 1-acetylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (XXXIII) with (R)-alpha-methylbenzylamine (XIII) by means of NaOH and ethyl chloroformate gives the corresponding amide (XLI), which by reaction with ethylene glycol and p-toluenesulfonic acid is converted into the ethylene ketal (XLII). The bromination of (XLII) with Br2 in dioxane affords the bromomethyl dioxolane (XLIII), which is finally cyclized to 5-[1(R)-phenylethyl]-5-azaspiro[2.4]heptane-4,7-dione (XXXV), already obtained as an intermediate in the preceding synthesis.

 

 

 

The chiral intermediate (1R,2S)-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-fluorocyclopropylamine (III) can also be obtained as follows: 3) A study of the influence of different substituents in the cis/trans ratio of the cyclopropanation process has been performed. The general method is as follows: the reaction of benzylamine (XXIII) with acetaldehyde and trichloromethyl chloroformate gives the N-benzyl-N-vinylcarbamoyl chloride (XXIV), which by treatment with alcohol yields the N-vinylcarbamate (XXV). The cyclopropanation of (XXV) with fluorodiiodomethane and diethyl zinc as before preferentially affords the cis-N-(2-fluorocyclopropyl)carbamate (XXVI), which is purified by crystallization. The hydrogenolysis of (XXVI) with H2 over Pd/C in acetic acid gives cis-racemic-2-fluorocyclopropylamine (XXVII), which is submitted to optical resolution with L-menthyl chloroformate to afford pure (1R,2S)-isomer (XXII). Finally, this compound is converted into (III) with tert-butoxycarbonyl anhydride as before.

Precautions and contraindications

  1. As Xing Ren is slightly toxic, large dosages should be avoided, especially when treating infants.
  2. Contraindicated in cases of weak constitution and profuse sweating.

 

Remarks
Ku Xing Ren (Semen Pruni Armeniacae Amarum), or bitter apricot kernel, is normally used for this herb.

In China, people who can afford to buy apricot as a fresh fruit generally throw the stones away. Servants and the less fortunate children gatherthe stones and sell them to collectors who use cheap labor to crack the shells (endocarp) and free the seeds (kernel) with the brown seed coat tightly covering the embryo (two cotyledons with the small radical and plumule).

In Chinese prescriptions, an apricot seed with the brown seed coat intact is called bei-xing-ren (northern apricot seed). All Chinese apothecaries keep a supply of apricot seeds in this state.

Detoxificated apricot seed: The major portion of the annual production of apricot seed is detoxified, processed by being first subjected to boiling water to loosen the seed coat, which can then be rubbed off by hand, followed by soaking the white cotyledons in cold water with several changes to eliminate the bitter element and to detoxify them. Then the detoxified white cotyledons are dried for the market. In Chinese prescriptions, this decoated and detoxified material is called nan-xing-ren (southern apricot seed) or tian-xing-ren (sweet apricot seed), which is also available in apothecaries. However, a greater portion of the detoxified material is used in pastry and for food.

Toxicity
The LD for intravenous injection of amygdalin in mice or rats is 25g/kg; for intraperitoneal injection, it is 8g/kg; and for oraladministration, it is O.6g/kg. Oral administration of 55 pieces (the equivalem of about 60g) of Ku Xing Ren, containing 1.8g of amygdalin, can cause death in humans. The main symptoms oftoxic reaction include a bitter taste in the mouth, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, pain in the abdomen, diarrhoea, agitation, vexation and restlessness, palpitations, and weakness of the limbs, and in severe cases, oppression in the chest, difficulty in breathing, loss of consciousness, a reduction in blood pressure and even coma. Ku Xing Ren should therefore not be used raw and overdosage must be avoided.

Modern Research

  1. Inhibits the respiratory centre to stop coughing and calmwheezing.
  2. Affects digestion by inhibiting the activity of pepsins.
  3. Reduces the level of blood fats.
  4. Inhibits inflammation and alleviates pain.
  5. Inhibits carcinoma

Carrots Cut Men’s Prostate Cancer Risk by 50%:


Carrots Cut Men’s Prostate Cancer Risk by 50%: A new meta-study out of China has just shown that eating one large carrot (100 grams) daily may decrease prostate cancer risk by a stunning 50% in men. The study noted a 5% risk reduction for every 10 grams eaten daily, or full serving eaten weekly. But it’s not the beta-carotene that’s doing it. It’s the alpha-carotene (carrots are the richest source). This is confirmed by another very recent study out of Japan showing that men with the highest intake of alpha-carotene from all sources had 54% less risk of prostate cancer. And yet another study out of the USA showed men with the highest alpha-carotene intake were 51% less likely to have high PSA levels – a marker for prostate cancer. In both those studies, beta-carotene was found to offer no protection. Alpha-carotene is a powerful antioxidant: it’s also been shown to reduce the risk of breast cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer, and pancreatic cancer in large population studies. Carrots are the single richest source of alpha-carotene in our diets, but pumpkin and winter squash (butternut, hubbard) are also good sources. It makes good sense, then, to get more of these low calorie super-vegetables (preferably organic) in our daily cuisine as part of a well-balanced, healthy diet including plentiful other organic vegetables, fruit and whole foods.<br /><br />

Erectile dysfunction can be reversed without medication


Lyranara.me's avatarLyra Nara Blog

Men suffering from sexual dysfunction can be successful at reversing their problem, by focusing on lifestyle factors and not just relying on medication, according to new research at the University of Adelaide.

In a new paper published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, researchers highlight the incidence of erectile dysfunction and lack of sexual desire among Australian men aged 35-80 years.

Over a five-year period, 31% of the 810 men involved in the study developed some form of erectile dysfunction.

“Sexual relations are not only an important part of people’s wellbeing. From a clinical point of view, the inability of some men to perform sexually can also be linked to a range of other health problems, many of which can be debilitating or potentially fatal,” says Professor Gary Wittert, Head of the Discipline of Medicine at the University of Adelaide and Director of the University’s Freemasons Foundation Centre for…

Ozenoxacin is active against a great number of pathogens, such as Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) including ciprofloxacin-resistant strains, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus epidermidis (MSSE), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE), Streptococcus pyogenes, Group G Streptococci, penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, Beta-lactamase positive Haemophilus influenzae, non-typeable strains of Haemophilus influenzae, Beta-lactamase positive Moraxella catarrhalis, Neisseria meningitides, Legionella pneumophila, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptococcus agalactiae group B, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum Helicobacter pylori, Bacteroides fragilis, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., ciprofloxacin-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clostridium difficile, and Listeria monocytogenes.

Ozenoxacin is a novel non-fluorinated quinolone antibacterial agent. It is currently in late stage phase 3 trials for the topical treatment of impetigo. The bacterial action of ozenoxacin is through the dual inhibition of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Excellent in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity has been demonstrated in pre-clinical and clinical studies against a broad range of bacterial organisms. This includes organisms with emerging resistance to quinolones. Phase I and II clinical trials have also shown that ozenoxacin is a safe and effective antibacterial agent. No evidence of adverse effects as linked to topically formulated halogenated quinolones has been shown.

Ozenoxacin (I) was firstly disclosed in US6335447, and equivalent patents. Its chemical name is 1-cyclopropyl-8-methyl-7-[5-methyl-6-(methylamino)-3-pyridinyl]-4-oxo-1 ,4-dihydro-3- quinolinecarboxylic acid. Its chemical formula is: H

Ozenoxacin (I)

Topical application of antimicrobial agents is a useful tool for therapy of skin and skin structures infections, sexually transmitted diseases and genital tract infections and some systemic infections susceptible to topical treatment. Topical antimicrobial therapy has several potential advantages compared with systemic therapy.

Firstly, it can avoid an unnecessary exposure of the gut flora which may exert selection for resistance. Secondly, it is expected that the high local drug concentration in topical application and the negligible systemic absorption should overwhelm many mutational resistances. Thirdly, topical applications are less likely than systemic therapy to cause side effects. Accordingly, some topical compositions comprising ozenoxacin have been reported in the art.

JP2002356426A discloses ointments and gels for skin. An ointment comprising ozenoxacin 1%, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone 8%, propylene glycol 14.9%, oleic acid 0.9%, diisopropanolamine 2.3%, polyethylene glycol 400 20.2%, polyethylene glycol 4000 50.2%, and water 3.2% is reported in Example 2.

JP2003226643A discloses aqueous solutions comprising ozenoxacin, cyclodextrin, and a viscous agent.

EP1731138A1 discloses fine particle dispersion liquid comprising ozenoxacin to be used in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions.

WO2007015453A1 discloses lotions comprising ozenoxacin.

JP2007119456A discloses aqueous suspensions containing nanoparticles and solution granules of ozenoxacin to be used in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions. Ophthalmic solutions are mentioned preferably. A combined use of ozenoxacin, magnesium ions, and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin specially for ophthalmic use is disclosed in Yamakawa, T. et al., Journal of Controlled Release (2003), 86(1 ), 101-103.

Semisolid topical compositions are useful alternatives to liquid compositions, because of their better manipulation and consequent patient preferences. However, in spite of the great diversity of components present in the semisolid compositions disclosed in the art, no quantitative stability studies are available for them.

Thus, there is a need of proved stable semisolid topical compositions comprising ozenoxacin as active ingredient, wherein microbiological and therapeutic activities are warranted because of demonstrated durable and prolonged pharmaceutical stability.

EXAMPLE 5

To a solution of 0.80 g of 7-[6-({[(benzyloxy)-carbonyl] (methyl)amino}methyl)-5-methyl-3-pyrdyl]-1-cyclo-propyl-8-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-3-quinoline-carboxylic acid in 16 ml of acetic acid was added 0.20 g of 5% (w/w) palladium-carbon and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure for 2 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was dissolved in a mixed solvent consisting of 3.8 ml of ethanol and 3.8 ml of water. After adding 3.8 ml of an aqueous 1 mol/l sodium hydroxide solution thereto and adjusting the solution to pH 5.5with 1 mol/l hydrochloric acid, 10 ml of chloroform was added thereto. An organic layer was separated and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. Addition of diethyl ether to the obtained residue and filtration of crystals afforded 0.25 g of colorless crystals of 1-cyclopropyl-8-methyl-7-{5-methyl-6-[(methylamino)methyl]-3-pyridyl}-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid.
