We evaluated thein vitro activities of the antimicrobial drugs bedaquiline and delamanid against the major pathogenic nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). Delamanid showed high MIC values for all NTM exceptMycobacterium kansasii . However, bedaquiline showed low MIC values for the major pathogenic NTM, includingMycobacterium avium complex,Mycobacterium abscessus subsp.abscessus ,M. abscessus subsp.massiliense , andM. kansasii .
