(Clarithromycin + clofazimine + rifabutin) overview
RHB-104, a fixed dose combination of rifabutin, clarithromycin and clofazimine is under development for the treatment of Crohn’s disease caused by Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (MAP). The drug is administered orally as a capsule. Rifabutin is an antibiotic that targets DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity in susceptible cells. Clarithromycin binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit and targets RNA-dependent protein synthesis in susceptible organisms. Clofazimine inhibits mycobacterial growth and binds preferentially to mycobacterial DNA. It was also under development for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus and relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).
