Abstract Background Cefiderocol is a novel siderophore cephalosporin, developed for activity against MDR Gram-negative bacilli (MDR-GNB). Objectives To assess the in vitro antibacterial activity of cefiderocol against a collection of MDR-GNB clinical isolates from hospitals in southern Spain. Methods Two hundred and thirty-one isolates of successful clones were tested: 125 Enterobacterales (121 ESBL- and/or carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and 4 carbapenemase-producing Enterobacter cloacae), 80 Acinetobacter baumannii, 6 Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 20 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Ceftolozane/tazobactam, ceftazidime, ceftazidime/avibactam, cefepime, aztreonam, meropenem, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, colistin and tigecycline were used as comparators against Enterobacterales, P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii. Minocycline, levofloxacin and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole were studied against S. maltophilia instead of aztreonam, ciprofloxacin and cefepime. MICs were determined by broth microdilution according to CLSI guidelines. MIC determination was performed in CAMHB for all antimicrobials except cefiderocol, where iron-depleted CAMHB was used. Results Cefiderocol showed potent in vitro activity against the isolates analysed. MIC50 and MIC90 values were in the ranges 0.125–8 mg/L and 0.5–8 mg/L, respectively, and 98% of isolates were inhibited at ≤4 mg/L. Only five isolates showed cefiderocol MICs of >4 mg/L: three ST2/OXA-24/40-producing A. baumannii, one ST114/VIM-1-producing E. cloacae and one ST114/VIM-1 + OXA-48-producing E. cloacae. All KPC-3-producing K. pneumoniae were susceptible to cefiderocol, even those resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam. P. aeruginosa isolates showed cefiderocol MICs of <4 mg/L, including those resistant to ceftolozane/tazobactam. S. maltophilia isolates displayed cefiderocol MICs of <4 mg/L, including those resistant to levofloxacin and/or trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. Conclusions Cefiderocol showed excellent activity against MDR-GNB, including carbapenem-resistant isolates, and was the most active antimicrobial tested against this collection.

Abstract Background The incidence of infections caused by multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is increasing at an alarming rate in Southeast Asia and other parts of the world. Sulbactam (SUL) has intrinsic antibacterial activity against A. baumannii; however, the prevalence of β-lactamases in this species has limited its therapeutic use. Durlobactam (ETX2514, DUR) is a novel β-lactamase inhibitor with broad-spectrum activity against Ambler class A, C and D β-lactamases. DUR restores SUL in vitro activity against multidrug-resistant A. baumannii. Against >3,600 globally diverse, clinical isolates from 2012–2017, addition of 4 mg/L DUR reduced the SUL MIC90 from >32 to 2 mg/L. SUL-DUR is currently in Phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp.The goal of this study was to determine the activity of SUL-DUR and comparator antibiotics (amikacin (AMK), ampicillin-sulbactam (AMP-SUL), cefoperazone-sulbactam (CFP-SUL) and meropenem (MEM)) against A. baumannii isolated from hospitalized patients in India. Methods A total of 121 clinical A. baumannii isolates from multiple hospital settings and infection sources were collected between 2016–2019 from six geographically diverse hospitals in India. Species identification was performed by MALDI-TOF. Susceptibility of these isolates to SUL-DUR (10µg/10µg) and comparator antibiotics was determined by disk diffusion using CLSI methodology and interpretive criteria, except for CFP-SUL, for which resistance was defined using breakpoints from the CFP-SUL package insert. Results As shown in Table 1, resistance of this collection of isolates to marketed agents was extremely high. In contrast, based on preliminary breakpoint criteria, only 11.5% of isolates were resistant to SUL-DUR. Conclusion The in vitro antibacterial activity of SUL-DUR was significantly more potent than comparator agents against multidrug-resistant A. baumannii isolates collected from diverse sites in India. These data support the continued development of SUL-DUR for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant infections caused by A. baumannii. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Abstract Background SPR206 is a novel polymyxin analogue. Activity against clinical isolates is little documented. Methods A collection of 200 MDR, carbapenem-resistant, tigecycline-resistant, colistin-resistant and non-MDR clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was obtained from 50 centres across China (2016–17). All isolates were derived from respiratory tract, urine and blood samples. Strains were purposely selected on the basis of phenotypes, genotypes and specimen origins. MICs of SPR206 and other antimicrobials were determined. Results SPR206 was active against all bacteria tested except colistin-resistant isolates. The MIC50/90 values of SPR206 for colistin-resistant strains were comparable to known polymyxins (16/128 versus 8/128 mg/L). SPR206 exhibited potent activity against colistin-susceptible OXA-producing A. baumannii (MIC50/90 = 0.064/0.125 mg/L), NDM-producing Enterobacteriaceae (MIC50/90 = 0.125/0.25 mg/L) and KPC-2-producing Enterobacteriaceae (MIC50/90 = 0.125/0.5 mg/L). In fact, SPR206 was the most potent agent tested, with 2- to 4-fold lower MICs than colistin and polymyxin B for A. baumannii, P. aeruginosa and Enterobacteriaceae. Additionally, MIC values of SPR206 (MIC50/90 = 0.064/0.125 mg/L) were 16- to 32-fold lower than those of tigecycline (MIC50/90 = 2/2 mg/L) for tigecycline-susceptible carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. Conclusions SPR206 showed good in vitro activity against MDR, tigecycline-resistant and non-MDR clinical isolates of Gram-negative pathogens. SPR206 also exhibited superior potency to colistin and polymyxin B, with 2- to 4-fold lower MIC50/90 values.

ABSTRACT The in vitro activity of colistin was evaluated versus 3,480 isolates of gram-negative bacilli using CLSI broth microdilution methods. The MIC90 of colistin was ≤2 μg/ml against a variety of clinically important gram-negative bacilli, including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp., Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. All multidrug-resistant (n = 76) P. aeruginosa isolates were susceptible to colistin (MIC, ≤2 μg/ml). These data support a role for colistin in the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa.

ABSTRACT Ceftolozane-tazobactam was tested against 58 multidrug-resistant nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli (35 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 11 Achromobacter xylosoxydans, and 12 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia isolates) isolated from cystic fibrosis patients and was compared to ceftolozane alone, ceftazidime, meropenem, and piperacillin-tazobactam. Ceftolozane-tazobactam was the most active agent against P. aeruginosa but was inactive against A. xylosoxydans and S. maltophilia. In time-kill experiments, ceftolozane-tazobactam had complete bactericidal activity against 2/6 clinical isolates (33%).
