Pharmacodynamics

The time that unbound plasma concentration of ceftaroline exceeds the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the infecting organism has been shown to best correlate with efficacy in a neutropenic murine thigh infection model with S. aureus and S. pneumoniae.

No significant effect on QTc (corrected QT interval) interval was detected at peak plasma concentration or at any other time.

Mechanism of action

Ceftaroline fosamil is an antibacterial drug.

Absorption

Not Available

Volume of distribution

Median 20.3 L (18.3-21.6 L).

Protein binding

approximately 20%.

Metabolism

Ceftaroline fosamil is converted into bioactive ceftaroline in plasma by a phosphatase enzyme. Hydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring of ceftaroline occurs to form the microbiologically inactive, open-ring metabolite ceftaroline M-1.
