Gemifloxacin Mesylate is the mesylate salt form of gemifloxacin, a synthetic broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone with antibacterial activity. Gemifloxacin mesylate inhibits activities of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and eventually bacterial growth. This fluoroquinolone exerts an enhanced spectrum of activity against gram-positive bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus, in addition to its activity against gram-negative bacteria.

| Body Surface Area (m2) | 0.007 | 0.025 | 0.15 | 0.05 | 0.02 | 0.5 |
| Km factor | 3 | 6 | 12 | 8 | 5 | 20 |
| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.

| TH-Z145
TH-Z145 is a lipophilic GGPPS inhibitor (GGPPS IC50 = 210 nM). TH-Z145 is a very lipophilic bisphosphonate that lacks the cationic center essential for FPPS inhibition and is thus a specific GGPPS inhibitor (FPPS IC50 >30 mM). TH-Z145 exhibited strong prophylactic effects in a pathogenic influenza model. |
| TH-Z93
TH-Z93, a lipophilic bisphosphonate, is an FPPS inhibitor (IC50 = 90 nM). TH-Z93 exhibits potent efficacy, increasing both antibody titers and avidity. TH-Z93 exhibited strong prophylactic effects in a pathogenic influenza model. |
