Description: Telacebec, also known as Q-203, is an antituberculosis agent and a potent inhibitor of mycobacterium tuberculosis protein potentially for the treatment of tuberculosis. Telacebec targets Mycobacterium tuberculosis cellular energy production through inhibition of the mycobacterial cytochrome bc1 complex. Q203 inhibited the growth of MDR and XDR M. tuberculosis clinical isolates in culture broth medium in the low nanomolar range and was efficacious in a mouse model of tuberculosis at a dose less than 1 mg per kg body weight, which highlights the potency of this compound. In addition, Q203 displays pharmacokinetic and safety profiles compatible with once-daily dosing.
