A multi-center open study was conducted to investigate cefuzonam (CZON, L-105) regarding to its pharmacokinetic, bacteriological and clinical aspects in the field of obstetrics and gynecology with the participation of 31 medical institutions and the related facilities. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Peak MICs of CZON for Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase (-) staphylococci, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacteroides fragilis group, Peptostreptococcus spp. isolated from obstetrical and gynecological infections with relatively high frequencies were 0.39, 0.20, 0.024, 0.024-0.05, 12.5, 0.20 microgram/ml, respectively, with an inoculum size of 10(6) CFU/ml. 2. When 1 g of CZON was given through bolus injection, the maximum concentration (Cmax) of CZON in pelvic dead space exudate was 18.7 micrograms/ml at 60.9 minutes (Tmax) after the injection; Cmax's in all female genital tissues were observed at 0.6-27.9 minutes and ranged from 11.9-26.3 micrograms/g. The Cmax 8.3 micrograms/ml, in the pelvic dead space exudate was noted at 97.0 minutes after the end of the intravenous drip infusion of 1 g over 1 hour, and Cmax's in genital tissues were 14.3-30.0 micrograms/g at the end of infusion. With 1 hour drip infusion of 2 g, Cmax's in genital tissues were 35.0-53.9 micrograms/g at the end of infusion. 3. The clinical efficacy of CZON was evaluated in 206 evaluable patients with obstetric and gynecologic infections. Efficacy rates classified by types of infections were 97.1% (67/69) for intrauterine infections, 81.6% (31/38) for intrapelvic infections, 91.8% (45/49) for adnexitis, 95.2% (20/21) for infections of the external genital organs and 86.2% (25/29) for other infections. 4. Side effects were observed in 7 of the 262 patients: eruption in 6 cases, itching in 2, diarrhea in 1. Abnormal laboratory test values were noted in 9 of the 256 patients. Most of them were slight elevation of hepatic function values. CZON showed satisfactory clinical efficacy and potent antibacterial activity, hence it appears that CZON will be a very useful antibiotic for obstetric and gynecologic infections.

Cefuzonam (CZON, L-105) was used clinically for the treatment of obstetrical and gynecological infections at a dosage of 1 g once or twice daily by intravenous drip infusion. The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. Clinical effects of CZON were analyzed in 10 patients, including 5 patients with intrapelvic infections, 3 with intrauterine infections, and 1 each with adnexitis and an external genital infection. Excellent responses were observed in 1 patient (11.1%), good responses in 7 (77.8%), poor responses in 1 (11.1%), and one remaining case was unevaluable. The efficacy ratio was 88.9%. 2. Upon the treatment, eradications of causative bacteria were observed in all 4 cases tested. Staphylococcus sp. (2 strains), Staphylococcus epidermidis (1 strain), Klebsiella oxytoca (1 strain) and Pseudomonas putida (1 strain) were all eradicated by the CZON treatment. 3. The safety of the drug was analyzed in the 10 patients and rash occurred in 1 patient as a side effect. 4. One patient showed eosinophilia after the CZON treatment. It appeared that CZON would be useful for the treatment of obstetrical and gynecological infections.

To women undergoing radical and total hysterectomy, flomoxef (FMOX, 6315-S) in a dose of 2 g was administered by intravenous drip infusion over 1 hour and drug concentrations in serum and pelvic dead space exudate as well as pelvic organs/tissues were determined over time. The following results were obtained: 1. Serum concentrations of FMOX after intravenous infusion showed the peak value of 92.86 +/- 17.05 micrograms/ml at the end of infusion and then gradually decreased to 29.00 +/- 10.49 micrograms/ml in 1 hour and 1.16 +/- 1.08 micrograms/ml in 6 hours. 2. Concentrations in pelvic dead space exudate, which were 6.54 +/- 3.21 micrograms/ml at the end of intravenous infusion, gradually increased to 31.28 +/- 12.69 micrograms/ml in 30 minutes, and the peak of 35.21 +/- 13.29 micrograms/ml in 1 hour. Exudate concentrations gradually decreased to 11.10 +/- 6.64 micrograms/ml at 6 hours after infusion. 3. The serum concentration at the ligature of uterine artery was 103.21 +/- 51.69 micrograms/ml. Among concentrations in pelvic organ/tissues 37.17 +/- 18.20 micrograms/ml in uterine cervix was the highest, followed by 35.77 +/- 7.68 micrograms/g in portio vaginalis, 26.35 +/- 14.15 micrograms/g in tube, 21.62 +/- 12.15 micrograms/g in ovary, 20.56 +/- 9.82 micrograms/g in myometrium, and 16.45 +/- 8.10 micrograms/g in endometrium, in this order. 4. From an analysis of the two-compartment model, the maximum serum concentration was 92.81 micrograms/ml, which was very high. The time of 50% reduction of concentration in beta phase was 1.21 hours. In the pelvic dead space exudate, the maximum concentration was 32.38 micrograms/ml and the time of 50% reduction was 2.44 hours. The AUC was 147 micrograms.hr/ml in serum and 201 micrograms.hr/ml in the pelvic dead space. The shift to the pelvic dead space was 137% when AUC's were used as the basis of the comparison. 5. Clinically, FMOX was excellently effective against adnexitis caused by Peptostreptococcus asaccharolyticus, intrauterine infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus, cystitis caused by Klebsiella and Escherichia coli, vaginal stump infection caused by Streptococcus and E. coli and many other infections.

To evaluate the usefulness and the safety of cefuzonam (CZON, L-105) against obstetric and gynecological infections, we conducted clinical trials and obtained the results summarized as follows. 1. Thirteen patients with obstetric and gynecological infections (intrauterine infection 2 cases, adnexitis 7, 1 case each of abscess of adnexa uteri, abscess of the vaginal wall, pyelonephritis, and mammitis) were treated with CZON. The CZON was administered by intravenous injection or intravenous drip infusion, 1 g twice daily for 4 to 7 days (8 g to 14 g in total). The clinical effect was good in 12 and poor in 1. 2. Four cases, on which other antimicrobial agents were ineffective, responded well to CZON. 3. The CZON displayed excellent effects on anaerobic bacteria (Peptostreptococcus anaerobius, Bacteroides fragilis) and Gram negative rods (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae). 4. No side effects or laboratory abnormalities were observed. 5. From the above results, CZON appeared to be an effective and useful drug for obstetric and gynecological infections.

Fundamental and clinical studies on a new cephalosporin antibiotic, cefpiramide (CPM), was carried out under a joint study program, in order to evaluate the usefulness of the drug in treating infection of the female genital organs. The results obtained were as follows: CPM was readily transported to female genital organ tissues, and the concentrations of the drug exceeded 35 micrograms/g in various organ tissues in about 1 hour, following intravenous injection of 1 g. A level of more than 2 micrograms/g was maintained even 14 hours after the injection. The transport of CPM to various tissues was also studied following intravenous drip infusion of 1 g for 1 hour. The concentrations in tissues were slightly low but similar to those following intravenous injection. The peak concentration of the drug in the dead space exudate was 3.1-20.4 micrograms/ml, following intravenous injection and intravenous drip infusion of 1 g. The MIC80 of CPM were 3.13-12.5 micrograms/ml against S. aureus, Klebsiella sp., P. mirabilis and P. aeruginosa. Clinical effects of CPM were analyzed in 158 patients, including 56 cases with intrauterine infection, 37 cases with intrapelvic infection, 22 cases with external genital infection, 31 cases with adnexitis, 6 cases with postoperative wound infection and 6 cases with other infections. Excellent response was seen in 28 cases (17.7%), good response in 120 (75.9%) poor response in 10 (6.3%). The rate of response was calculated as 93.7%. Safety of the drug was analyzed in 258 patients, and side effects occurred in 4 (1.6%). Of these 4 patients, rash was in 1 patient, heat sensation in 1 patient, nausea in 1 patient and rash accompanying edema in 1 patient. Abnormal values in clinical laboratory findings were seen in 7 patients. Elevations of transaminase were seen in 5 patients and decrease of platelet was seen in a patient, and then elevations of transaminase with decrease of platelet was seen in a patient, and no other changes of particular note appeared.

Fundamental and clinical studies were made on piperacillin (PIPC) and the results were obtained as follows. Serum and uterine tissue concentrations of PIPC were obtained from 36 to 215 minutes after intravenous single shot of 2 g of PIPC. The cervix uteri, endometrium and corpus uteri showed the highest antibiotic levels of 38.0, 43.0 and 33.0 mcg/g, respectively, at 65 minutes after injection, and oviduct and ovary showed the highest level of 31.5 and 28.5 mcg/g at 36 minutes. Its concentrations were sufficiently effective against the major pathogens (Gram-negative bacilli and anaerobes) demonstrated in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. PIPC was administered 6 patients, including 3 of pelvic peritonitis (isolated organism was E. coli 1), 2 of acute endometritis (Klebsiella sp. 1, Peptococcus sp. + Bacteroides sp. 1) and 1 of acute adnexitis, in a dosage of 1 or 2 g twice or 3 times a day for a period of 5 to 8 days by intravenous administration or intravenous drip infusion. Clinical response was obtained excellent in 1 and good in 5. No adverse reaction as observed in any of the cases treated with PIPC, nor was there any marked changes in the laboratory findings.

The following results have been obtained in our basic and clinical studies to examine a new cephalosporin derivative, cefotaxime (CTX). For basic study purpose, we injected 1 g of CTX to 6 patients who had received simple total hysterectomy and measured its level in elbow vein, uterine artery, corpus uteri, cervix uteri, endometrium, oviduct and ovary. Any definitive conclusion should not be drawn from these results, since they have too big variation. However, slightly higher levels were achieved cervix uteri and oviduct than in other organs in a same patient. For clinical evaluation, we tried this drug to 12 cases of female genital infections and 91.7% response rate was obtained. Our studied population includes 8 cases of adnexitis, 2 with pelvioperitonitis, 1 with panperitonitis, and 1 patient with BARTHOLIN abscess. Organisms were detected only in 3 cases, including S. aureus in one patient, Micrococcus sp. in one, and mixture of Klebsiella sp. and B. fragilis in 1. Puncture of DOUGLAS pouch was performed in 3 cases after the completion of therapy and all had negative results. No side effect was observed, and no significant difference was noted between pre- and post-therapy examinations of peripheral blood, hepatic function and renal function.

The study group was organized to evaluate the usefulness of cefmenoxime (CMX) injection, a new synthetic cephalosporin, for the treatment of infections in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. Fundamental and clinical studies were made by the society and the following results were obtained. 1. The peak distribution of CMX's MIC for E. coli, Klebsiella sp., Enterobacter sp., Bacteroides sp. and Peptococcus sp. isolated from obstetrical and gynecological infections with relatively high frequencies area 0.1, less than or equal to 0.05, 0.2, 3.13, 1.56 micrograms/ml, respectively, with an inoculation of 10(6) cells/ml. 2. When 1 g of CMX is administered by intravenous drip infusion for 1 hour, the maximum concentrations in various tissues of female genital organs were as follows: 14.2 and 13.2 micrograms/g in ovary and oviduct, respectively, at 1.20 hours after the start of administration, and 16.9 and 26.3 micrograms/g in corpus uteri and cervix uteri, respectively, after 1 hour. As for the transfer to the exudate in the pelvic dead cavity, the peak concentration was 15.6 micrograms/ml after 2.13 hours. 3. In the clinical studies, CMX was given to 258 cases with female genital organ infections and others. As for the clinical effects, with exclusion of 3 cases in which other antibiotics are concomitantly used, responses were excellent in 76 cases, good in 162 cases and poor in 17 cases, among 255 cases in total. The efficacy rate was 93.3%. The efficacy rates by diseases were 97.1% (68/70) for intrauterine infections, 88.8% (79/89) for intrapelvic infections, 98.4% (62/63) for adnexitis, and 100% (23/23) for infections of external genital organs. As for the clinical effects on causative bacteria, the efficacy rates were 100% (19/19) for single infections due to Gram-positive bacteria, 94.8% (55/58) for single infections due to Gram-negative bacteria, and 88.2% (15/17) for single infections due to anaerobic bacteria. And its efficacy rates were 89.6% (69/77) for mixed infection cases. Side effects were observed in 2 cases (0.8%); 1 case with eruption, and 1 case with diarrhea and vomiting. As for abnormal laboratory findings, lower white blood cell count was observed in 2 cases and elevation of the values regarding hepatic functions in 9 cases. All cases were returned to the normal after the completion of the administration. Cefmenoxime showed a satisfactory clinical efficacy and a potent bacteriological effect in treatment of the infections in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, and it has been concluded that cefmenoxime will be useful addition to the antibiotics for the therapy of these infections.

Fundamental and clinical studies on T-1982 (cefbuperazone), a new cephamycin antibiotic, were carried out, and the following results were obtained. When T-1982 was administered at a dose of 1 g by intravenous drip infusion for 30 minutes or 1 hour, the concentration in serum showed as high as 23.0 micrograms/ml or 25.0 micrograms/ml even 2 hours after administration. The concentrations in the genital tissues about 5 hours after administration ranged 1.2-45.6 micrograms/g for 30 minutes drip infusion and 0.9-26.8 micrograms/g for 1 hour drip infusion. From these results, T-1982 was supposed to maintain the in vivo concentration to inhibit 80-100% the growth of bacteria such as S. aureus, E. coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, S. marcescens and Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria, B. fragilis which were often isolated clinically in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. When T-1982 was administered at a dose of 1-2 g twice a day to 14 patients with female genital infection; 2 intrauterine infection, 2 pyometra, 7 pelveoperitonitis, 1 adnexitis, 1 adnexal abscess and 1 vaginal cuff abscess, the clinical results were excellent in 9, effective in 4 and poor in 1. The efficacy rate was 92.9%. No side effects nor abnormalities in laboratory findings were observed in any of the 14 cases. These results suggest that T-1982 has efficacy for the treatment of obstetrical and gynecological infections.
