Afabicin (Debio 1450) is an experimental antibiotic developed by Debiopharm for the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus infections. It is a prodrug which is converted in vivo into the active form afabicin desphosphono (Debio 1452) which acts as an inhibitor of the staphylococcal enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (FabI) enzyme. It has shown similar efficacy in clinical trials to established drugs such as vancomycin, but has not yet been approved for clinical use. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
