Tigecycline is the first clinically-available drug in a new class of antibiotics called the glycylcyclines. Glycylcyclines are a new class of antibiotics derived from tetracycline. These tetracycline analogues are specifically designed to overcome two common mechanisms of tetracycline resistance, namely resistance mediated by acquired efflux pumps and/or ribosomal protection. Glycylcycline antibiotics have a similar mechanism of action as tetracycline antibiotics. Both classes of antibiotics bind to the 30S ribosomal subunit to prevent the amino-acyl tRNA from binding to the A site of the ribosome. However, the glycylcyclines appear to bind more effectively than the tetracyclines.
Anti-Bacterial Agents
Substances that inhibit the growth or reproduction of BACTERIA. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Bacterial Agents.)
Protein Synthesis Inhibitors
Compounds which inhibit the synthesis of proteins. They are usually ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENTS or toxins. Mechanism of the action of inhibition includes the interruption of peptide-chain elongation, the blocking the A site of ribosomes, the misreading of the genetic code or the prevention of the attachment of oligosaccharide side chains to glycoproteins.

The recovery of total radioactivity in feces and urine following administration of (14)C-tigecycline indicates that 59% of the dose is eliminated by biliary/fecal excretion, and 33% is excreted in urine. Approximately 22% of the total dose is excreted as unchanged tigecycline in urine. Overall, the primary route of elimination for tigecycline is biliary excretion of unchanged tigecycline and its metabolites. Glucuronidation and renal excretion of unchanged tigecycline are secondary routes.

... The safety and tolerability of tigecycline administered as single or multiple doses or at various infusion rates were explored in three phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in healthy subjects. Full pharmacokinetic profiles of tigecycline were determined in two of these studies. Subjects in the single-dose study received 12.5 to 300 mg of tigecycline, which differed with respect to the duration of infusion, subjects' feeding status, and ondansetron pretreatment. Subjects in the ascending multiple-dose study received 25 to 100-mg doses of tigecycline as a 1-hr infusion every 12 hr. The variable volume and infusion rate study consisted of administration of 100-mg loading dose of tigecycline, followed by 50 mg every 12 hr for 5 days. Serum samples were analyzed for tigecycline by validated high-pressure liquid chromatography or liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry methods. Systemic clearance ranged from 0.2 to 0.3 liters/hr/kg, and the tigecycline half-life ranged from 37 to 67 hr. Tigecycline had a large volume of distribution (7 to 10 liters/kg), indicating extensive distribution into the tissues. Food increased the maximum tolerated single-dose from 100 to 200 mg, but the duration of infusion did not affect tolerability. ...

Tigecycline was minimally metabolised in the animal species tested, consistent with that observed in humans. Consistent with rat and dog data, the 4-epimer of tigecycline (a non-enzymatic epimerization product) was also the most abundant tigecycline-derived component detected in human serum and urine. The major metabolic pathways for tigecycline in humans were glucuronidation (M7: tigecycline glucuronide metabolite, approximately 12%, and its epimer M6) and amide hydrolysis of the tbutylaminoacetylamino side chain (M9: N-acetyl-9- aminominocycline, approximately 3% and its epimer M8, approximately 10% of the administered tigecycline dose). Thehuman metabolites (M7 and M9), have not been observed in rats and dogs, but are present in mice and rabbits. Further studies showed that tigecycline and its epimer as well as M3, M7 and its epimer M6 were detected in both species, mice and rabbits, but M9 and its epimer M8 were only observed in rabbits,although quantitative information on the individual metabolites was not provided.

Tigecycline, a glycylcycline, inhibits protein translation in bacteria by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit and blocking entry of amino-acyl tRNA molecules into the A site of the ribosome. This prevents incorporation of amino acid residues into elongating peptide chains. Tigecycline carries a glycylamido moiety attached to the 9-position of minocycline. The substitution pattern is not present in any naturally occurring or semisynthetic tetracycline and imparts certain microbiologic properties to tigecycline. Tigecycline is not affected by the two major tetracycline resistance mechanisms, ribosomal protection and efflux. Accordingly, tigecycline has demonstrated in vitro and in vivo activity against a broad spectrum of bacterial pathogens. There has been no cross resistance observed between tigecycline and other antibiotics. Tigecycline is not affected by resistance mechanisms such as beta-lactamases (including extended spectrum beta-lactamases), target site modifications, macrolide efflux pumps or enzyme target changes (e.g. gyrase/topoisomerase). In vitro studies have not demonstrated antagonism between tigecycline and other commonly used antibacterial drugs. In general, tigecycline is considered bacteriostatic.
Pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic mediators have been involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Tigecycline (Tig), a glycylcycline antibiotic and an analog of Minocycline, is shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects that are distinct from its anti-microbial activity. Its neuroprotective mechanism is unknown. In this study, we investigated the direct protective mechanisms of tigecycline against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced Rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. The results showed that tigecycline significantly attenuated the expression and the release of nuclear factor-kappa beta (NF-kappaB), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), as well as nitric oxide (NO) levels in LPS-induced PC12 cells. In addition, tigecycline dose-dependently decreased cytochrome c release and caspase-3 activity. This later finding corroborated the results of decreased pro-apoptotic Bad, and increased anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein expression thus, confirming a neuroprotective effect of the drug in differentiated PC12 cells induced with LPS. The findings of /this/ study suggest new targets for tigecycline and support the potential for tigecycline to be investigated as a therapeutic agent for neurodegenerative disorders.

Tigecycline is a glycylcycline antibiotic derived from the tetracycline group, that acts by inhibiting protein synthesis at the level of the bacterial ribosome. Tigecycline shows higher binding affinity than tetracyclines, being active against bacterial strains with either mechanism of tetracycline resistance (efflux and ribosomal protection). The fact that tigecycline overcomes most of the known tetracycline resistance mechanisms is interpreted as a result of steric hindrance due to the large substituent at position 9. Tigecycline showed a number of differences between the in vitro/in vivo antibacterial activity with respect to the tetracycline group that could be attributed to the specific interaction with a different region of the ribosomal A-site. Since mutational resistance to tetracyclines at the A-site is considered extremely rare, it is unlikely that mutational resistance to tigecycline will arise at the Asite. Tigecycline is able to inhibit mitochondrial protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells, which may have some toxicological relevance. However, in this respect tigecycline resembles classical tetracyclines and some other antimicrobial drugs inhibiting prokaryotic protein synthesis. In addition, the in vitro data show that tigecycline is active against microorganisms harbouring some tetracycline determinants of resistance.

ABOUT THIS PAGE
A Tigecycline manufacturer is defined as any person or entity involved in the manufacture, preparation, processing, compounding or propagation of Tigecycline, including repackagers and relabelers. The FDA regulates Tigecycline manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with relevant laws and regulations and are safe and effective to use. Tigecycline API Manufacturers are required to adhere to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) to ensure that their products are consistently manufactured to meet established quality criteria.

A Tigecycline DMF (Drug Master File) is a document detailing the whole manufacturing process of Tigecycline active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in detail. Different forms of Tigecycline DMFs exist exist since differing nations have different regulations, such as Tigecycline USDMF, ASMF (EDMF), JDMF, CDMF, etc.
A Tigecycline DMF submitted to regulatory agencies in the US is known as a USDMF. Tigecycline USDMF includes data on Tigecycline's chemical properties, information on the facilities and procedures used, and details about packaging and storage. The Tigecycline USDMF is kept confidential to protect the manufacturer’s intellectual property.

A Tigecycline CEP of the European Pharmacopoeia monograph is often referred to as a Tigecycline Certificate of Suitability (COS). The purpose of a Tigecycline CEP is to show that the European Pharmacopoeia monograph adequately controls the purity of Tigecycline EP produced by a given manufacturer. Suppliers of raw materials can prove the suitability of Tigecycline to their clients by showing that a Tigecycline CEP has been issued for it. The manufacturer submits a Tigecycline CEP (COS) as part of the market authorization procedure, and it takes on the role of a Tigecycline CEP holder for the record. Additionally, the data presented in the Tigecycline CEP (COS) is managed confidentially and offers a centralized system acknowledged by numerous nations, exactly like the Tigecycline DMF.
A Tigecycline CEP (COS) is recognised by all 36 nations that make up the European Pharmacopoeia Convention. Tigecycline CEPs may be accepted in nations that are not members of the Ph. Eur. at the discretion of the authorities there.

A Tigecycline written confirmation (Tigecycline WC) is an official document issued by a regulatory agency to a Tigecycline manufacturer, verifying that the manufacturing facility of a Tigecycline active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) adheres to the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) regulations of the importing country. When exporting Tigecycline APIs or Tigecycline finished pharmaceutical products to another nation, regulatory agencies frequently require a Tigecycline WC (written confirmation) as part of the regulatory process.

National Drug Code is a comprehensive database maintained by the FDA that contains information on all drugs marketed in the US. This directory includes information about finished drug products, unfinished drug products, and compounded drug products, including those containing Tigecycline as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).
The FDA updates the NDC directory daily. The NDC numbers for Tigecycline API and other APIs are published in this directory by the FDA.
The NDC unfinished drugs database includes product listing information submitted for all unfinished drugs, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), drugs intended for further processing and bulk drug substances for compounding.
Pharmaceutical companies that manufacture Tigecycline as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) must furnish the FDA with an updated record of all drugs that they produce, prepare, propagate, compound, or process for commercial distribution in the US at their facilities.
The NDC directory also contains data on finished compounded human drug products that contain Tigecycline and are produced by outsourcing facilities. While these outsourcing facilities are not mandated to assign a Tigecycline NDC to their finished compounded human drug products, they may choose to do so.

Tigecycline Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is produced in GMP-certified manufacturing facility.
GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practices, which is a system used in the pharmaceutical industry to make sure that goods are regularly produced and monitored in accordance with quality standards. The FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices requirements are referred to as cGMP or current GMP which indicates that the company follows the most recent GMP specifications. The World Health Organization (WHO) has its own set of GMP guidelines, called the WHO GMP. Different countries can also set their own guidelines for GMP like China (Chinese GMP) or the EU (EU GMP).
PharmaCompass offers a list of Tigecycline GMP manufacturers, exporters & distributors, which can be sorted by USDMF, JDMF, KDMF, CEP (COS), WC, API price, and more, enabling you to easily find the right Tigecycline GMP manufacturer or Tigecycline GMP API supplier for your needs.
A Tigecycline CoA (Certificate of Analysis) is a formal document that attests to Tigecycline's compliance with Tigecycline specifications and serves as a tool for batch-level quality control.
Tigecycline CoA mostly includes findings from lab analyses of a specific batch. For each Tigecycline CoA document that a company creates, the USFDA specifies specific requirements, such as supplier information, material identification, transportation data, evidence of conformity and signature data.
Tigecycline may be tested according to a variety of international standards, such as European Pharmacopoeia (Tigecycline EP), Tigecycline JP (Japanese Pharmacopeia) and the US Pharmacopoeia (Tigecycline USP).
