Laboratory and clinical studies on cefodizime (CDZM, THR-221), a newly developed cephem antibiotic, were done. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Absorption and elimination were examined in a total of 5 cases including a case of 10 mg/kg intravenous drip infusion for 30 minutes, 2 cases of 20 mg/kg rapid intravenous injection and 2 cases of 40 mg/kg drip infusion for 30 minutes. Maximum serum levels were attained immediately after drip infusion or rapid injection. Cmax's were 119.2 micrograms/ml for 10 mg/kg, 374.9 micrograms/ml or 255.7 micrograms/ml for 20 mg/kg, and 321.3 micrograms/ml or 431.8 micrograms/ml for 40 mg/kg. These values were determined using an high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. In general, values using the bioassay were higher than those with the HPLC method. T 1/2 (beta)'s were between 1.74 and 1.93 hours using HPLC, and between 1.77 and 2.24 hours using bioassay. Urinary recovery rates were examined in 3 out of 5 cases. Cumulative urinary recovery rates were 57.9-90.6% with HPLC method and 50.4-88.0% with bioassay in a period of 0-8 hours after administration. 2. Clinical efficacy was evaluated in a total of 22 cases including 14 cases of respiratory tract infections, 5 cases of urinary tract infections and 3 cases of cellulitis. Clinical efficacy rate was 95.2%. Bacteriologically, pathogenic organisms were eradicated in 90.0%. As adverse reactions, 1 angular stomatitis, 1 diarrhea and 1 loose stool were noted. Abnormal laboratory test values detected were 1 case of increased GPT and 1 case of increased GOT and GPT.
