RP 59500 is a new semisynthetic injectable streptogramin with excellent activity against most gram-positive bacteria. In order to assess its potential for the treatment of tissue infections, the pharmacokinetics and penetration into suction blister fluid were studied in a pilot phase I study in six male volunteers following a single infusion of 12 mg/kg over 1 h. Plasma and suction blister fluid concentrations were determined by microbiological assay. The mean peak concentration in plasma was 8.65 mg/l at the end of infusion. The mean plasma elimination half-life was 1.48 h. The mean peak concentration in interstitial fluid was 2.41 mg/l and was reached after 1 h in two volunteers and after 2 h in the other four. The mean percentage penetration for the interval 0-6 h was 82.5%. RP 59500 was still detectable in interstitial fluid at 6 h at a mean concentration of 0.92 +/- 0.25 mg/l. The data of this pilot study demonstrate good penetration of RP 59500 into non-inflammatory interstitial fluid.
