Delafloxacin has been linked to mild ALT elevations during therapy, but has yet to be linked to instances of idiosyncratic acute liver injury with symptoms and jaundice as have been described with other fluoroquinolones.</p></div><div id="Delafloxacin.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Delafloxacin (del" a flox' a sin) is a fourth generation fluoroquinolone with expanded activity against gram-positive bacteria including multidrug resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Like other fluoroquinolones, delafloxacin is active against a wide range of aerobic gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. The quinolones are believed to act by inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV that are required for synthesis of bacterial mRNAs (transcription) and DNA replication. In contrast, DNA gyrases are not present in human [and other eukarotic] cells and the equivalent topoisomerases are not sensitive to fluoroquinolone inhibition. Delafloxacin was approved for use in the United States in 2018 and is available under the commercial name Baxdela. Current indications are limited to skin and skin structure infections due to sensitive organisms. Delafloxacin is available in both oral and parenteral formulations as 450 mg tablets and as 300 mg of a lyophilized powder in a single dose vial for reconstitution. The recommended regimen is an oral dose of 450 mg every 12 hours or by intravenous infusion every 12 hours for 5 to 14 days. Common side effects include gastrointestinal upset, nausea, diarrhea, headache, skin rash and allergic reactions. Less common, but more severe side effects of delafloxacin that are shared by other fluoroquinolones include seizures, hallucinations, peripheral neuropathy, tendon rupture, severe hypersensitivity reactions, Stevens Johnson syndrome, angioedema, photosensitivity and Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea.</p></div><div id="Delafloxacin.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Delafloxacin, like other fluoroquinolones, is associated with a low rate (3% to 4%) of serum enzyme elevations during therapy. These abnormalities are generally mild, asymptomatic and transient, resolving even with continuation of therapy. ALT elevations above 5 times the upper limit of normal occur in 1% or less of subjects. Although delafloxacin may not have been clearly linked to cases of clinically apparent liver injury, the other fluoroquinolones, such as ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and moxifloxacin, rank among the 25 most common causes of drug induced liver injury in many case series. Estimates of the frequency of liver injury from fluoroquinolones have been 1:15,000 to 1:25,000 exposed persons. Delafloxacin has been in clinical use for a short time only, but is likely to have a similar frequency and pattern of liver injury as the other fluoroquinolones.</p><p>The typical presentation of fluoroquinolone associated liver injury is with a short latency (1 day to 3 weeks) and abrupt onset with nausea, fatigue, abdominal pain and jaundice. The pattern of serum enzyme elevations can be either hepatocellular or cholestatic, cases with the shorter times to onset usually being more hepatocellular. In addition, the onset of illness may occur a few days after the medication is stopped. Many (but not all) cases have prominent allergic manifestations with fever and rash, and the liver injury may occur in the context of a generalized hypersensitivity reaction. Autoantibodies are usually not present. Most reported cases of liver injury from fluoroquinolones have been mild and self-limited, with recovery in 4 to 8 weeks from onset. However, the fatality rate of cases with jaundice has been greater than 10%. In addition, cases with a cholestatic pattern of serum enzymes may run a prolonged course and, in rare instances, have progressed to chronic vanishing bile duct syndrome leading to liver failure. Nevertheless, delafloxacin is a relatively recently introduced antibiotic and has yet to be convincingly linked to instances of acute hepatitis or jaundice.</p><p>Likelihood score: E* (unproven but suspected cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Delafloxacin.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The cause of hepatic injury from the fluoroquinolones is unknown but appears to be hypersensitivity.</p></div><div id="Delafloxacin.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Mild-to-moderate injury from fluoroquinolone induced hepatitis should be followed by full recovery within 4 to 8 weeks. Cases of acute liver failure with death or need for liver transplantation have been reported, nor have chronic cases with bile duct loss. Cross reactivity of the hepatic injury between different fluoroquinolones has not been demonstrated but is suspected based upon the similarity of clinical patterns of injury and latency. Thus, patients who developed clinically apparent liver injury from a fluoroquinolone should be advised to avoid delafloxacin. Monitoring of liver tests during therapy is likely to be ineffective as the typical course of treatment is only 5 to 10 days.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Antiinfective/">Antiinfective Agents</a></p><p>Other Drugs in the Subclass, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Fluoroquinolones/">Fluoroquinolones</a>: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Ciprofloxacin/">Ciprofloxacin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Gemifloxacin/">Gemifloxacin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Levofloxacin/">Levofloxacin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Moxifloxacin/">Moxifloxacin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Norfloxacin/">Norfloxacin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Ofloxacin/">Ofloxacin</a></p></div></div><div id="Delafloxacin.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Delafloxacin_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
