5t The 1 International Moxifloxacin symposium took place in Berlin
Germany February 18 - 20,1999. The purpose of this meeting was to
introduce the medical and scientific communities to this exciting
new fluoroquinolone and to define its role in the management of
respiratory tract infections. The fluoroquinolones as a class are
an important part of our therapeutic armamentarium and moxi
floxacin is a unique addition to this class of compounds. This
symposium brought together physician/scientists from around the
world to present and discuss the moxifloxacin data. The information
from this important meeting are presented in these proceedings and
are organized under the following headings: Part I Antimicrobial
chemotherapy Part II Pre-clinical microbiology Part III
Pharmacology Part IV Clinical needs in the millennium Part V Round
table discussion The modifications to the basic quinolone structure
resulting in moxifloxacin have produced a drug with unique in
vitro, and pharmacokinetic/pharmaco dynamic properties. The drug
has a very broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, is well
absorbed and can be taken only once daily. Its profile makes it an
excellent therapeutic option for many types of respiratory tract
infections. It is hoped that our clinical and laboratory colleagues
will be as excited by this data as we are and we look forward to
further work with this unique and interesting compound."
