Sarecycline

Sarecycline is a narrow-spectrum tetracycline-derived antibiotic.[1][2] It is specifically designed for the treatment of acne, and was approved by the FDA in October 2018 for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of non-nodular moderate to severe acne vulgaris in patients 9 years of age and older.[3] Two randomized and well-controlled clinical trials reported efficacy data on both facial and truncal acne (back and chest).[4] Efficacy was assessed in a total of 2002 subjects 9 years of age and older.[3] Unlike other tetracycline-class antibiotics, sarecycline has a long C7 moiety that extends into and directly interact with the bacterial messenger RNA (mRNA).[5] The spectrum of activity is limited to clinically relevant Gram-positive bacteria, mainly Cutibacterium acnes, with little or no activity against Gram-negative bacterial microflora commonly found in the human gastrointestinal tract.[6] Sarecycline has not been tested in spirochetes.
