Molecular Mechanisms That Could Explain Unique Adverse Events Observed In Patients Treated With The Antibiotic Telithromycin (Ketek?)

Cempra Pharmaceuticals and HiQScreen announced the publication of research revealing the molecular mechanisms that could explain certain unique adverse events associated with the ketolide, telithromycin (Ketek?), which led to its restricted use. The study also showed that Cempra's novel fluoroketolide, solithromycin (CEM-101) is unlikely to generate the adverse events seen with telithromycin.
