To date, ozenoxacin has been used in trials studying the treatment of impetigo. As of December 11, 2017 the FDA approved Ferrer Internacional S.A.'s Xepi (ozenoxacin 1%) as a topically applied cream indicated for the treatment of impetigo caused by *Staphylococccus aureus* or *Streptococcus pyogenes* in adult and pediatric patients 2 months of age and older. Despite being a common and highly contagious bacerial skin infection that affects millions of children and adults in the United States each year, ozenoxacin cream is a novel, non-fluorinated quinolone that has demonstrated safe and effective therapy in both the adult and pediatric population.
Ozenoxacin is a Quinolone Antimicrobial.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Although the exposure response relationship for ozenoxacin after it has been applied topically has not yet been studied, a formal relationship is unlikely because systemic exposure of ozenoxacin following its topical application has been measured to be negligible.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Anti-Bacterial Agents

Substances that inhibit the growth or reproduction of BACTERIA. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Bacterial Agents.)


Topoisomerase Inhibitors

Compounds that inhibit the activity of DNA TOPOISOMERASES. (See all compounds classified as Topoisomerase Inhibitors.)

5.5 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Four studies were performed in which varying strengths of ozenoxacin cream, up to 2% (twice the concentration of the marketed formulation), were administered to 110 patients. Three of the studies examined systemic absorption in healthy subjects and in subjects having impetigo. The studies were performed with either single or repeated application of up to 1 g ozenoxacin cream to intact or abraded skin (up to 200 cm squared surface area). No systemic absorption was seen in 84 of 86 subjects, and negligible systemic absorption was seen at the level of detection (0.489 ng/mL) in 2 subjects.


Route of Elimination

Studies regarding elimination and excretion have not yet been investigated in humans due to the negligible systemic absorption observed in clinical studies.


Volume of Distribution

Ozenoxacin undergoes negligible systemic absorption after its topical administration. Subsequently, since negligible systemic absorption of ozenoxacin was observed in clinical studies, tissue distribution has not been investigated in humans either.


Clearance

Ozenoxacin undergoes negligible systemic absorption after its topical administration.


5.6 Metabolism/Metabolites

Studies have demonstrated that ozenoxacin is not metabolized in the presence of fresh human skin discs and is minimally metabolized in human hepatocytes.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

Ozenoxacin is a quinolone antibiotic drug. And, like most quinolones, ozenoxacin predominately executes its mechanism of action by entering into bacterial cells and acting to inhibit the bacterial DNA replication enzymes DNA gyrase A and topoisomerase IV. As DNA gyrase A and topoisomerase IV are essential to bacterial DNA replication activities including supercoiling, supercoil relaxation, chromosomal condensation, chromosomal decatenation and more, their inhibition is the principal action of ozenoxacin's mechanism and it has been demonstrated to be bactericidal against *S. aureus* and *S. pyogenes* organisms.
