An '']'' pre-clinical study performed by Jeffrey Keelan done in sheep may provide a prophylactic approach for intrauterine infections during pregnancy. This study was carried out by administering solithromycin to pregnant sheep, resulting in effective concentrations greater than 30&nbsp;ng/ml in the fetal plasma, maternal plasma and amniotic fluid.

==Side effects==
During a clinical study some patients presented with elevated liver enzyme which may or may not be indicative of ]. This prompted the FDA Antimicrobial Drugs Advisory Committee to vote that the ] has not been adequately characterized and that further studies need to be conducted. To this extent, the ] requests a 9,000 patient safety trial as well as restricting the drug.

==Development==
In 2008, ]s for solithromycin capsules and an intravenous formulation were submitted. From studies of ], safety, and efficacy several issues were found. There is variable absorption which can result in subtherapeutic drug concentrations and even therapy failure. Additionally, there are significant drug-drug interactions affecting solithromycin concentrations as well the concentrations of the offending drugs. There is also a narrow therapeutic margin which can make this drug challenging to dose.<ref>{{cite web|title=FDA Briefing Document Solithromycin Oral Capsule and Injection Meeting of the Antimicrobial Drugs Advisory Committee (AMDAC)|url=https://www.fda.gov/downloads/advisorycommittees/committeesmeetingmaterials/drugs/anti-infectivedrugsadvisorycommittee/ucm527690.pdf|website=www.fda.gov|access-date=31 October 2017}}</ref>

==Commercial aspects==
Cempra's general plan is to develop solithromycin develop products through late stage clinical trials and sell them to their hospital based sales force or through partnerships, which would need negotiations with larger pharmaceutical companies.<ref name=Cempra >{{cite web|title=Cempra Annual Report|url=http://investor.cempra.com/secfiling.cfm?filingID=1193125-13-96011|website=investor.cempra.com|language=en|access-date=2017-10-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151005211456/http://investor.cempra.com/secfiling.cfm?filingID=1193125-13-96011|archive-date=2015-10-05|url-status=dead}}</ref> There are several manufacturing plants used such as Wockhardt Limited and Hospira Incorporated manufacturing facilities as well as Uquifa Laboratories, an alternative GMP facility.<ref>{{cite web |title=Cempra Receives Complete Response Letter From FDA For Solithromycin NDAs (NASDAQ:CEMP) |url=http://investor.cempra.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=1005708 |website=investor.cempra.com |language=en |access-date=2017-10-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170704154336/http://investor.cempra.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=1005708 |archive-date=2017-07-04 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

==Intellectual property==
Due to the fact that bringing new products to the market takes a significant investment of time and money, companies place considerable importance on patent protection for new products. Solithromycin is a new chemical entity from the ] library of compounds that were licensed by ]. It is covered by a series of patents and patent applications which claim the composition of matter of solithromycin.<ref>{{cite web|title=Cempra, Inc. - Annual Report|url=http://investor.cempra.com/secfiling.cfm?filingID=1193125-13-96011|website=investor.cempra.com|language=en|access-date=2017-10-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151005211456/http://investor.cempra.com/secfiling.cfm?filingID=1193125-13-96011|archive-date=2015-10-05|url-status=dead}}</ref> There are also patents surrounding the synthesis and purification of this substance. For example, patent EP3190122 A1 presents a novel, efficient route of synthesis that bypasses the need for chromatographic purification which saves time.<ref>{{cite patent |title=A novel synthetic pathway towards solithromycin and purification thereof |url=https://www.google.com/patents/EP3190122A1?cl=en |pubdate=2017-07-12 | country = EP | number = 3190122}}</ref>
