Abstract: Doses and methods for administering telavancin or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof to a human patient having an infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus, such as bacteremia, pneumonia, endocarditis, osteomyelitis, a prosthetic joint infection or a complicated skin and skin structure infection, are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for treating an infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus in a human patient using telavancin or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof. The dose of telavancin administered to the patient is determined, in part, by the weight and creatinine clearance of the patient.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of formula I: wherein x is in the range of from about 1 to about 2. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; processes for preparing such compounds; and methods of using such compounds to, for example, treat a bacterial infection.

Abstract: The invention relates to a crystalline form of a triethylamine salt of (2Z)-2-(2 -amino-5-chlorothiazol-4-yl)-2-(3-N-tert-butoxycarbonylaminopropoxyimino)acetic acid. The invention also relates to processes and intermediates for preparing the crystalline form. The crystalline form is useful as an intermediate for preparing cross-linked glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotics.

Abstract: Disclosed are glycopeptides that are substituted with one or more substituents each comprising one or more phosphono groups; and pharmaceutical compositions containing such glycopeptide derivatives. The disclosed glycopeptide derivatives are useful as antibacterial agents.
