Distribution of radioactivity in bone and related structures following administration of (14C)dalbavancin to New Zealand white rabbits.

摘要

Penetration of dalbavancin into noninfected bone and joint tissues was assessed after an intravenous dose of 20 mg/kg (of body weight) [(14)C]dalbavancin given to rabbits. Drug-derived radioactivity, determined over 14 days by either liquid scintillation counting or autoradiography, remained above the MIC for common gram-positive pathogens that cause bone and joint infections.
