Among the new antibiotics being developed against meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and vancomycin-resistant enterococci, oritavancin a new lipoglycopeptide seems able to circumvent high level of glycopeptides resistance. The story behind this agent reveals the pharmaceutical business and regulatory challenge that can have a major impact on development of new antibiotics (Norris E. allen et coll, 2010). As the development of this agent started in 1985 and has not yet receives any approval, the aim of this paper is to determine whether or not there is a future for oritavancin
