Interactions of the Diazabicyclooctane Serine β-Lactamase Inhibitor ETX1317 with Target Enzymes.

ABSTRACT: ETX0282 is an orally bioavailable prodrug of the diazabicyclooctane serine β-lactamase inhibitor ETX1317. The combination of ETX0282 with cefpodoxime proxetil is in clinical trials as an oral therapy for complicated urinary tract infections caused by Enterobacterales. Earlier diazabicyclooctane β-lactamase inhibitors, such as avibactam and durlobactam, contain a sulfate moiety as the essential anionic group and are administered intravenously. In contrast, ETX1317 contains a fluoroacetate moiety, which is esterified with an isopropyl group in ETX0282 to provide high oral bioavailability. Previous studies of avibactam and durlobactam showed that covalent inhibition of certain β-lactamases is reversible due to the ability of the ring-opened inhibitors to recyclize and dissociate in the
