1. S-1108 granules were administered to 22 children with bacterial infections (8 cases of bronchitis, 1 case of pneumonia, 3 cases of scarlet fever, 2 cases each of tonsillitis, pharyngitis, pertussis, purulent lymphadenitis and impetigo). 2. Clinical efficacies were excellent in 12 patients and good in 7, fair in 1, poor in 1 and unevaluable in 1 with an efficacy rate of 90.5%. 3. Neither side effects nor abnormal laboratory test values were observed. 4. There was no rejection of the drug during the therapy. From the above results, we consider S-1108 in granular form to be a useful and safe drug in the treatment of various bacterial infection in pediatric patients.

To evaluate the efficacy, the safety and the usefulness of a novel and esterified cephem antibiotic for oral use, S-1108, in pediatric infections, a clinical trial was performed. The study subjects were 15 patients including 9 with acute pharyngitis, 1 with acute tonsillitis, 2 with acute bronchitis, 1 with chronic pyelonephritis, 1 with acute abscess of the skin and 1 with impetigo contagiosa. S-1108 was administered orally at a dose of 3.7 mg/kg to 12.5 mg/kg t.i.d. for 4 to 9 days. Clinical effects were excellent in 7 cases, good in 6, fair in 1 and poor in 1. The Overall efficacy rate was 86.7%. Bacteriologically, causative organisms were all eradicated in evaluable 4 cases. As to side effects, diarrhea was observed in 2 cases. No abnormal laboratory test values were obtained.

Pharmacokinetic and clinical studies on S-1108, a new oral cephem antibiotic, were performed in pediatric infections and the following results were obtained. 1. Pharmacokinetics studies Pharmacokinetics of S-1108 was studied in 4 children (3 y 7 m-11 y 1 m) using doses of 2 mg/kg (n = 2) and 4 mg/kg (n = 2). The average peak plasma level was 0.88 microgram/ml at 2 hours after administration of 2 mg/kg and 2.00 micrograms/ml at 3 hours after administration of 4 mg/kg, and plasma half-lives were 1.45 and 0.96 hours, respectively. Average cumulative urinary recovery rates at 0-6 hours were 30.0 and 34.8%, respectively. 2. Clinical studies S-1108 was administered to 32 patients with various infectious diseases (6 with acute tonsillitis, 2 each with pertussis and acute bronchitis, 3 with pneumonia, 4 with scarlet fever, 5 with impetigo contagiosa, 6 with acute urinary infection and 1 each with subcutaneous abscess, impetigo, vulvitis and urethritis) at daily doses between 6-12 mg/kg/day, t.i.d., for 5-12 days. Clinical responses were excellent in 17 patients, good in 13, and poor in 2, and the efficacy rate was 93.8%. Bacteria were identified and 33 strains of 12 species were found. The eradication rate was 93.9%. No side effects were observed in 43 patients. Abnormal laboratory test values were observed in 2 patients, 1 with elevation of eosin. and the other with elevations of GOT and GPT. The results suggest that S-1108 may be a very useful and safe drug for the treatment of pediatric infections.

Bacteriological, pharmacokinetic and clinical studies on cefditoren pivoxil (CDTR-PI, ME 1207) in granules, a new oral cephalosporin, were performed in the field of pediatrics. The results are summarized below. 1. Antibacterial activities: Antibacterial activities of CDTR were studied against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae and Branhamella catarrhalis in comparison with those of cefteram (CFTM), cefixime (CFIX), cefaclor (CCL), cefpodoxime (CPDX) and cefotiam (CTM). MIC80's of CDTR against S. aureus, S. pneumoniae, S. pyogenes, H. influenzae, H. parainfluenzae and B. catarrhalis were 1.56, 0.39, < or = 0.025, < or = 0.025, 0.05 and 0.20 micrograms/ml, respectively. These results showed that CDTR has high antibacterial activities against these organisms. 2. Absorption and excretion: Serum concentrations and urinary recovery rates of CDTR-PI (administered in granules) were determined. Upon single oral doses of 3 mg/kg and 6 mg/kg, the peak serum concentrations were 0.5-2.45 micrograms/ml at 2 to 4 hours and 1.79-4.05 micrograms/ml at 1 to 4 hours, respectively, and T 1/2 was 1.07-9.67 hours and 0.99-3.00 hours, respectively. At 8 hours after dosing, serum concentrations were 0-0.87 micrograms/ml with a dose of 3 mg/kg and 0.27-0.73 micrograms/ml with 6 mg/kg. These values indicated that the drug has a dose-dependent pharmacokinetic behavior. Urinary recovery rates in the first 8 hours were 12.9-34.2% with a dose of 3 mg/kg and 11.8-26.9% with 6 mg/kg. 3. Clinical study: Clinical efficacies were examined in a total of 81 cases consisting of 20 cases of acute bronchitis, 13 of acute pneumonia, 21 of tonsillitis, 5 of pharyngitis, 7 of scarlet fever, 2 each of impetigo, otitis media and purulent cervical lymphadenitis, 1 of pertussis and 8 of UTI. The clinical efficacy rate was 97.5% (79/81), and bacteriological eradication rate was 100% (76/76). As for side effects, 2 cases of watery stools and 1 case of minor elevation of GPT were observed.

Azithromycin (AZM) was studied for its clinical efficacy in pediatric infections. The study on AZM was carried out in 43 patients whose diagnoses were given as follows: pharyngitis in five cases, tonsillitis in one, bronchitis in four, pneumonia in four, Mycoplasma pneumonia in 14, scarlet fever in nine, impetigo in four, pyodermia in one and Campylobacter enteritis in one. The patients received AZM once daily at 1.6 approximately 20.0 mg/kg body weight for three to five days. Effectiveness of AZM was evaluated in 39 cases and the drug was rated "excellent" in 15, "good" in 19, "fair" in one, "poor" in four, resulting in an efficacy rate of 87.2%. Twenty bacterial isolates were identified as causative isolates in 19 patients: Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Campylobacter jejuni and Mycoplasma pneumoniae. AZM eradicated 16 isolates but four persisted after therapy. One patient complained of loose stool, while two patients were found with decreases in white blood cell counts, and seven showed increases in eosinophils. However, no serious case of adverse event was reported.

Fine granule preparation of azithromycin (AZM), a new macrolide antibiotic, was given to treat various infections in pediatric patients. Efficacies of AZM in a total of 21 patients (tonsillitis in six, bronchitis in five, pneumonia in five, impetigo contagiosa in three, staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome in one and bacterial enterogastritis in one) were rated "excellent" in 11 patients and "good" in eight. The remaining two cases were not included in the evaluation. AZM eradicated all strains of infection-causative bacteria identified in the 21 patients: Staphylococcus aureus in two, Streptococcus pneumoniae in four, Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis in four, Haemophilus influenzae in six, Haemophilus parainfluenzae in three and Mycoplasma pneumoniae in one. One patient complained of mild diarrhea, while two patients showed increases in eosinophils as abnormal laboratory changes.
