Bacterial resistance to antimicrobials – health and economic problem Chronic resistant infections contributing to increasing health care cost Increase in mortality and morbidity with resistant microoraganisms WHY DO WE NEED NEWER ANTOIMICROBIALS
Three classes of drug resistant bacteria are a major cause of concern Methicillin resistant staphylococcous aureus Multi drug resistant and pan drug resistance Extensively drug resistant
Three classes of drug resistant bacteria are a major cause of concern Methicillin resistant staphylococcous aureus Multi drug resistant and pan drug resistance Extensively drug resistant
Organisms posing great danger have been clubbed together under the term “ESKAPE” E nterococcuus faecium S taphylococcus aureus K lebsiella pneumoniae A ctinobacter baumanii P seudomonas aeuroginosa E nterobacter species as these drugs have the ability to escape the ability of antimicrobial drugs

Targeting virulence factors Targeting bactericidal functions of bacterial proteins Modulating host response pathways Peptides derived from vertebrates, invertebrates and microorganism NEWER TARGETS FOR NEXT GENERATION OF ANTI MICROBIAL DRUGS
1.targeting virulence factorseg . Inhibition of bacterial adhesion Inhibition of toxin production Inhibition of toxin delivery Inhibition of virulence regulators 2. targeting bactericidal functions of bacterial proteins: Eg . Targeting enzymes like B- ketoacyl - acyl -carrier-protein synthase I/II Required for fattyacid biosynthesis in bacteria DRUGS IN PIPELINE: platensimysin - preclinical trails in an effort to combat MRSA in a mouse model
3. modulating host response pathways : toll like receptor activators and modulators cold potentially have an antimicrobial role byy producing antimicrobial peptides that activates the adaptive immune response to combat the infection 4.antimicrobial peptides derived from vertebrates, invertebrates and microorganisms: Novel potential therapeutic target They act by interfering with metabolism, targeting cytoplasmiccomponents and disrpting cell membranes They may enhance immunity by functioning as immunomodulators Eg : dermaseptin - from dog skin defensin & crustin - crustacean DRUGS in pipeline: omiganan clinical trails pexiganan
5. combination of antibiotics with bioenhancers A bioenhancer is an agent capable of enhancing the bio availability and efficacy of a drug with which it is co administered, without any pharmacological activity of its own at the therapeutic dose Bioenhancers can be used to increase the efficacy of commonly used antibiotics, combining antibiotictetracycline with non antibiotic drug loperamide Cow Urine Distillate(CUD) can act asa potential therapeutic target to enhance activity of antibacterial agents CUD+ rifampicin , increased the activity by about 5-7 times against E.coli and 3-11 timesagainst gram+ve bacteria
6. newer strategies or antibacterial drug delivery 7. engineer a prodrug that gets converted into highly potent drug within a microbe Engineer hybrid antibacterial drugs for high potency against two targets Alternative form of drug delivery methods Herbal derivatives as lead molecles
There is a great need for newer antimicrobials becase of increasing microbial resistance Because of increase in cost off development and increasing resistance, only few drugs are in pipeline The post marketal survelliance off the newer drugs in clinical trails is must, asrare adverse effects go un noticed during trails due to selected and limited number of patients Some of the newer agents are effective against resistant strains Programs like antibiotic stewardship can be helpful to combat the resistance Rational use of anytibiotics remains the most important measure CONCLUSIONS
