1285. Outcomes in Patients with Gram-Negative Bacteremia from Phase 2 and Phase 3 Clinical Trials of Cefiderocol, a Novel Siderophore Cephalosporin

Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is the first siderophore cephalosporin approved (US and EU) for a broad range of infections caused by Gram-negative (GN) bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (ENT) and non-fermenters (NFs). Bacteremia is a serious manifestation of GN infection and understanding how well an antibiotic works to clear the bacteremia is an important part of drug evaluation. Methods All completed clinical studies for CFDC development were used to identify patients with GN bacteremia. Information collected included the primary infection site, species identification and antibiotic susceptibility, post randomization blood cultures and clinical and bacteremia outcome. In patients with missing data (blood cultures) clinical response of cure was used to impute microbiological eradication. Indeterminate responses resulted from a combination of missing data and clinical failure, including death prior to test of cure (TOC). Results Three clinical studies randomized 900 patients (CFDC 552; comparators 348) of whom 84 (CFDC 52; comparators 32) had GN bacteremia at baseline (Table). Bacteremia rate by study was CREDIBLE-CR 25.3%, APEKS-cUTI 6.2%, APEKS-NP 6.0%. Escherichia coli (29), Klebsiella pneumoniae (23) and Acinetobacter spp (21) were most frequent species. Sources included urinary tract (31), lung (22), unknown (10), IV line (8), intraabdominal (6), or other (7). Persistence of bacteremia at TOC was seen in 2/52 (3.8%) CFDC and 2/32 (6.2%) control patients (Table), usually due to lack of source control. Clinical outcomes varied by study and infection source and were often confounded (indeterminate response). Eradication in patients with ENT at TOC was determined for 27/39 (69%) for CFDC and 16/23 (70%) for controls, and for 9/16 (56%) for CFDC and 10/11 (91%) for controls in patients with NFs, respectively. Table. Clinical and bacteremia microbiological outcomes per patient at TOC. Conclusion Post-treatment negative blood cultures were inconsistently collected, especially in APEKS-NP and -cUTI, however, negative blood cultures on therapy without recurrence was seen in 96% of CFDC patients with sufficient information. A dedicated clinical trial in GN bacteremia (GAME CHANGER; NCT03869437) is ongoing and will better delineate microbiological outcomes.

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacilli (CRGNB) are increasingly reported around the world as a cause of serious infections. However, the epidemiology and clinical course of patients with CRGNB in Japan is not well understood. Methods We prospectively collected CR cases from 4/2019 to 9/2020 in Multi-Drug Resistant organisms clinical research network (MDRnet) consisting of 5 tertiary care facilities in Japan. We looked for all CRGNB, and all unique patients with CR Enterobacterales, CR nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) and CR Aeromonas sp. isolation were included. Carbapenem resistance was tested by agar dilution method and defined based on the CLSI criteria for each species. Infections were determined by NHSN protocols. Results In total, 156 patients (30 Enterobacterales, 119 NFGNB, 7 Aeromonas spp.) were included (11 Enterobacter spp., 11 Klebsiella spp., 86 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 29 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, 7 Aeromonas spp.). Acinetobacter sp. was not detected. Isolation sites were sputum (n = 12) and urine (n = 7) in Enterobacterales, sputum (n = 62) and blood (n = 18) in NFGNB, and blood (n = 6) in Aeromonas spp. The median age and male ratio of the patients were 68 years [IQR: 53-74] and 19 (63.3%) in Enterobacterales, 72 years [IQR: 60-79] and 70 (58.8%) in NFGNB and 78 years [IQR: 54-83] and 2 (28.6%) in Aeromonas spp. Ten (33.3%) patients with Enterobacterales, 55 (46.2%) patients with NFGNB, and 6 (85.7%) patients with Aeromonas spp. were infected cases. The others were considered as colonized. There were no patients with ICU stay or intubation in Enterobacterales, while 5 (4.2%) and 4 (3.4%) patients were in ICU and intubated in NFGNB, and 2 patients were in ICU and intubated in Aeromonas spp., respectively. All-cause 30-day mortality rates were 10% in Enterobacterales, 16.8 % in NFGNB and 28.6% in Aeromonas spp. In the infected patients, 3 patients (30%) with Enterobacterales, 12 patients (21.8%) with NFGNB and 1 patient (16.7%) with Aeromonas spp. died within 30 days after isolation. Flow diagram outlining the characteristics of the patients and species in this study. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of patients with carbapenem resistant Enterobacterales Kaplan-Meier survival curves of patients with carbapenem resistant nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli Conclusion Mortality rates were high in infected cases of CR Enterobacterales, CR NFGNB and CR Aeromonas spp. Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. was not detected, which differed from the CR epidemiology in Europe, the United States, and other Asian countries.

Abstract Background Gram-negative bacterial resistance is a global health problem. Limited treatment options exist, especially for carbapenem resistant (CR) pathogens containing metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) and multidrug resistant non-lactose fermenting bacteria. Cefiderocol (CFDC) retains activity against resistant strains. We describe the objectives, design, and early results of PROVE, a real world retrospective study of CFDC use. Methods PROVE is a multi-center, chart review study of CFDC use for resistant Gram-negative infections (GNI). Cases were eligible if they received ≥ 72 hrs of CFDC. Demographics, comorbidity, pathogen, infection site, and treatment course were assessed. Outcomes included all-cause 14-day and inpatient mortality and length of stay (LOS). Clinical resolution was defined by documentation that clinical signs and/or symptoms had resolved or improved without relapse. Results 24 patients who were treated with CFDC at 2 sites were included to date. Median age was 48 years (Range: 19 - 69 years); 33% were female. The most common comorbidity was diabetes (n=7, 29%). Median total ICU LOS was 36 days. Targeted treatment of documented GNI without preceding failure of prior therapy accounted for 71% of CFDC use. Empirical and salvage treatments accounted for 4% and 25% respectively (Table 1). Median time from admission to 1st CFDC dose was 21 days. Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa accounted for > 75% of isolates (Fig.1). 92% of patients had CR isolates; > 50% were respiratory. Sensitivity to CFDC was tested in 58% of which 71% were sensitive. All-cause 14-day post-CFDC mortality was 13% (95% CI: 2, 27) and overall hospital mortality 25% (95% CI: 6, 44). Clinical resolution was reached in 54% (95% CI: 33, 76). Median post-CFDC LOS was 40 days. Outcomes were stratified by key covariates (Table 2). Conclusion We present initial data for real world use of CFDC for resistant GNI. Patients were complex with multiple comorbidities, some hospitalized for long periods before their index GNI. Outcomes largely reflect this patient population. Additional data are needed to determine the optimal role of CFDC. PROVE offers an opportunity to see how CFDC is being utilized in various settings as well as a first look at key, real world outcomes.

Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC), a novel siderophore cephalosporin, has demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria including carbapenem-resistant strains. We aimed to evaluate relationships between drug exposure and outcomes in critically ill patients. Methods Sparse pharmacokinetic (PK) samples at steady state from critically ill patients with pneumonia, bloodstream infection/sepsis, or complicated urinary tract infection receiving CFDC in two Phase 3 studies were analyzed. Percent time of dosing interval of free drug concentration exceeding the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in plasma and epithelial lining fluid (ELF) (%fT>MIC and %fT>MIC,ELF, respectively) were determined for 60 (CREDIBLE-CR; NCT02714595) and 97 patients (APEKS-NP; NCT03032380), using a 3-compartment population PK model. The %fT>MIC,ELF was calculated for 125 pneumonia patients based on an intrapulmonary PK model. Relationships between %fT>MIC, %fT>MIC,ELF and clinical and microbiological outcomes at test of cure (TOC), or mortality at Day 28 were assessed. Results The median (90th percentile) MICs of Gram-negative pathogens in the PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) analyses were 0.25 (4) µg/mL (CREDIBLE-CR) and 0.25 (2) µg/mL (APEKS-NP), respectively. Individual plasma %fT>MIC was 100% in ≥95% of patients in each study, and estimated %fT>MIC,ELF was 100% in 89.3% (25/28 pneumonia patients; CREDIBLE-CR) and 97.9% (95/97 pneumonia patients; APEKS-NP). Clinical cure rates and survival rates in patients with 100% fT>MIC or %fT>MIC,ELF were similar between the two studies (Table). No PK/PD relationships between %fT>MIC, %fT>MIC,ELF and clinical cure, microbiological eradication, or survival were identified in either study because high %fT>MIC or %fT>MIC,ELF was achieved in all patients. Table. Clinical cure and survival rates in patients with 100% fT>MIC or %fT>MIC,ELF in CREDIBLE-CR and APEKS-NP studies Conclusion PK/PD relationship was not identified between CFDC plasma or ELF exposure and clinical or microbiological outcomes, or mortality as high %fT>MIC and %fT>MIC,ELF were achieved, suggesting the recommended dosing regimen of 2 g q8h or renally adjusted dosage (including augmented renal clearance), infused over 3 hours, provides sufficient exposure to CFDC in critically ill patients.

Abstract Background Ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) is a novel cephalosporin/beta-lactamase inhibitor combination developed for use against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative infections, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA). C/T is approved for complicated urinary tract and intraabdominal infections as well as hospital-acquired/ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonias. However, comprehensive clinical characterization of patients treated with C/T in non-FDA-approved indications is limited. Methods Patients ≥18 years who received C/T for ≥48 hours while hospitalized in 9 acute care centers in Houston, TX from January 2016 through September 2018 were included. Demographic, microbiologic, treatment and clinical outcome data were retrospectively collected by chart review. In patients who received multiple inpatient courses of C/T, only the first course with C/T was assessed. Results 210 patients met inclusion criteria: 58% were non-white, 35% were female and 13% were immunocompromised. Median age was 61 years (IQR, 48 to 69). Median Charlson comorbidity index was 5 (IQR, 2 to 6). At the onset of the index episode, a significant proportion of patients required intensive care unit admission (44%), mechanical ventilation (37%) and pressor support (22%). Respiratory sources were the most common (50%) followed by urine (15%). Positive cultures were documented in 93% of the cases and PA was found in 86%. Majority (95%) of PA which were MDR. C/T use was guided by susceptibility testing of the index isolate in ca. 52%. In 5.7% of cases, C/T was used to escalate therapy without any documented C/T-susceptible organism. Half (51%) of the cohort received initial dosing appropriate for renal function while 36% receiving a lower than recommended dose. Clinical success (i.e., recovery from infection-related signs and symptoms) occured in 77%. The in-hospital mortality rate in our cohort was 15% with 26 of 31 deaths deemed infection-related. Conclusion We report a large multicenter observational cohort that received C/T. A 77% clinical success with the use of C/T was documented. These data support the use of C/T in critically ill patients infected with MDR PA. Disclosures William R.

Abstract Background Approximately 50% of people living with HIV (PLWH) in the United States are ≥50 years old. Efforts are ongoing to identify antiretrovirals associated with fewer drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and long-term side effects in this group. Clinical trials of B/F/TAF demonstrated favorable efficacy and safety in older adults, however, data from real-word settings are needed to validate these results. Methods This retrospective analysis evaluated records from PLWH aged ≥ 50 years at the Orlando Immunology Center who were switched to B/F/TAF between 2/7/2018 and 5/31/2019. Eligible patients had baseline HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/mL and were followed for 48 weeks post-switch. The primary endpoint was maintenance of HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/mL at week 48. The impact of switching to B/F/TAF on DDIs, adverse events (AEs) and safety parameters were analyzed throughout the study. Results 306 patients met inclusion criteria. 62 (20%) were female, 126 (41%) were non-white, median age was 58 years (range [r] 50-81), median duration of HIV infection was 19.5 years (r 2-40), median number of chronic co-morbid conditions was 5 (r 0-20), and median number of baseline concomitant medications was 4 (r 0-23). 159 (52%) patients were switched from regimens containing ritonavir or cobicistat. The most commonly documented reason for switch was simplification (Table 1). At Week 48, 287 (94%) patients maintained an HIV-1 RNA< 50 copies/ml and 19 (6%) had an HIV-1 RNA between 50-200 copies/mL (Figure 1). 1 patient discontinued due to lack of efficacy. A total of 123 potential DDIs were identified in 104 (34%) patients taking a boosting agent or rilpivirine at baseline (Table 2). At Week 48, there was a significant median decline in total cholesterol (15.5 mg/dL, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 9.5; 21.5), LDL cholesterol (9.5 mg/dL, 95% CI: 4; 15.5) and triglycerides (20 mg/dL, 95% CI: 9.5; 32.5), and median weight increased by 2.5 pounds (95% CI: 1.5; 3.5). Treatment-related AEs occurred in 33 (11%) patients (all Grade 1-2) and led to 7 (2%) discontinuations. Table 1-Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics Table 2-Avoidance of Drug-Drug Interactions (DDIs) following switch to B/F/TAF Figure 1-Subgroup analysis of virologic outcomes at Week 48 Conclusion In this real-world cohort, switching to B/F/TAF was associated with maintenance of virologic control, improvement in lipid parameters, and avoidance of DDIs in a large proportion of patients. These data support use of B/F/TAF as a treatment option in older PLWH. Disclosures Charlotte-Paige M.

Abstract Background The epidemiology of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) after Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT) in the era of preemptive therapy (PET) is defined. In contrast, less data exists on refractory and/or resistant (R/R) CMV. We report on 1) the incidence; 2) risk factors and outcomes of R/R CMV by 1-year post HCT. Methods Retrospective review of 167 CMV seropositive (R+) recipients of first marrow or peripheral blood HCT from 1/2014 - 12/2017 managed by PET. Refractory CMV was defined as failure to achieve >1 log10 decrease in CMV viral load (VL) and having VL >1,000 IU/mL after ≥14 day of PET. Resistant CMV required genotypic confirmation of resistance mutation(s) in UL54 and/or UL97 genes. End organ disease (EOD) was defined by standard criteria. Patients (pts) were followed through 1-year post HCT and were categorized in two mutually exclusive groups as R/R and no R/R. Demographics, clinical characteristics and outcomes were extracted from medical records and hospital databases. Univariable and multivariable logistic models were used to identify risk factors for R/R CMV. Results Of 167 PET recipients, 91 (54.5%) received ex vivo T cell depleted (TCD) HCT; 40 (24.0%) had mismatched donor; and 26 (15.6%) had multiple myeloma. 66/167 (39.5%) pts developed refractory CMV (6 pts also had resistant CMV). Time from HCT to CMV viremia was shorter in R/R group: median (IQR) 21.5 (17.2-27.8) days compared to no R/R group: 26 (19-32) days (p=0.031). Maximum VL was higher for R/R compared to no R/R: median (IQR) 9,118 (2,849-18,456) and 868 (474-1,908), respectively (p< 0.001). In multivariable model, risk factors for R/R included TCD HCT (p< 0.0001) and higher VL at PET initiation (p=0.0002). In contrast, CMV seropositive donor (p=0.035) was protective (Figure 1). CMV EOD developed in 28.2% of R/R and 16.2% of no R/R groups (p=0.085) (Figure 2). Overall survival at 1 year was 59.1% for R/R compared to 83.1% for no R/R group (p=0.00027) (Figure 3). Figure 1. Adjusted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) from multivariable model evaluating risk factors of refractory/resistant (R/R) CMV. Figure 2. Cumulative incidence curves of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) at 1-year post HCT Figure 3. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of overall survival (OS) at 1-year post HCT Conclusion 1) Refractory and/or resistant CMV occurred in 39,5% of PET recipients. 2) T-cell depletion and higher CMV VL at PET initiation were risk factors for R/R CMV in multivariable models. 3) R/R CMV was associated with more EOD and worse overall survival.

Abstract Background In the United States, interpretive criteria for FOF are established only for EC, yet those criteria are often extrapolated to KP. Recent studies have highlighted both inferior clinical outcomes after FOF treatment and difficulties in interpretation of inner colony subpopulations, the presence of which may affect clinical efficacy. We sought to compare FOF activity against EC and KP and to determine the prevalence of inner colony subpopulations following disk diffusion (DD) testing of the two species. Methods A convenience collection of 73 KP and 42 EC isolates from 3 U.S. institutions were included. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing was performed in duplicate on separate days using agar dilution (AD) and DD as recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines, with application of EC susceptibility (≤ 64mg/L) breakpoints. The frequency and counts of inner colonies observed during DD testing was calculated, and colonies were subcultured for use in future studies. Results MIC50/90 values were 1/16 mg/L and 32/256 mg/L for EC and KP respectively. All EC isolates were considered susceptible and therefore categorical agreement was 100%. The majority of KP isolates were considered susceptible (83.6% with AD and 86.3% with DD) and categorical agreement between the methods was 84.9%. Inner colonies were observed during DD testing in 88.1% of EC isolates and 80.8% of KP isolates during at least one replicate, with 47.6% of EC isolates and 39.7% of KP isolates showing inner colony growth during both DD test replicates. More than 10 inner colonies were observed in 50% of EC isolates compared to 12.3% of KP isolates. Conclusion KP isolates demonstrated considerably higher FOF MIC values compared to EC, as evidenced by MIC50/90 values 4-5 dilutions higher than those for EC. The categorical agreement rate was higher among EC than KP, highlighting concerns regarding the practice of extrapolating FOF susceptibility breakpoints for EC to KP. The high frequency of inner colonies observed in DD for both species necessitates further studies to determine best practices for interpreting their relevance, fitness, and resistance in order to identify potential impacts to clinical efficacy of FOF.

Abstract Background HIV-1 proviruses persist in people on antiretroviral therapy (ART) but most are defective and do not constitute a replication-competent reservoir. The decay of infected cells carrying intact compared with defective HIV-1 proviruses has not been well-defined in people on ART. Methods We separately quantified intact and defective proviruses (using an intact proviral DNA assay), residual plasma viremia, and markers of inflammation and activation in people on long-term ART. Longitudinal measurements were done at three timepoints: timepoint 1 was a median of 7.1 years on ART; timepoint 2 was a median of 3.7 years later; timepoint 3 was a median of 5.5 years after timepoint 1 and a median 12 years after starting ART (Figure 1). Figure 1: Study timepoints Results Among 40 participants tested longitudinally from a median of 7.1 years to 12 years after ART initiation, intact provirus levels declined significantly over time (median half-life 7.1 years; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.9, 18), whereas defective provirus levels did not decrease. The median half-life of total HIV-1 DNA was 41.6 years (95% CI, 13.6, 75). When we evaluated the change in proviral DNA per year, intact proviral DNA declined significantly more (p< 0.001) than defective proviral DNA (the latter did not change) (Figure 2). The proportion of all proviruses that were intact diminished over time on ART, from about 10% at the first on-ART timepoint to about 5% at the last timepoint (Figure 3). At timepoint 1, intact provirus levels on ART correlated with total HIV-1 DNA and residual plasma viremia, but there was no evidence for associations between intact provirus levels and inflammation or immune activation. Figure 2: Percent change in HIV-1 proviral DNA per year Figure 3: Total HIV-1 proviruses (grey bars) and the percentage of intact proviruses (red lines, displaying median, Q1, Q3) by timepoint. Conclusion Cells containing intact, replication-competent proviruses are selectively lost during suppressive ART. Defining the mechanisms involved should inform strategies to accelerate HIV-1 reservoir depletion.

Abstract Background Differences in clinical presentation and viral loads according to age in young children with RSV, and their correlation with disease severity are poorly defined. The aim of this study was to define age-dependent the differences in demographic, clinical factors and viral loads between children < 2 years of age with mild RSV infection evaluated as outpatients versus those hospitalized with severe RSV infection. Figure 1. Sign and Symptoms according to disease severity and age in infants with RSV infection. Most relevant signs and symptoms were stratified in outpatients (orange) vs inpatients (blue) by age in (A) < 3 months, (B) between 3 and 6 months, and (C) > 6 to 24 months of age. The Y axis represents the signs and symptoms in the two disease severity groups and the X axis the frequency of that specific symptom (%). Numbers next to bars represent the exact number of patients with that specific sign/symptom. Comparisons by Fisher exact test. Symbol (*) indicate significant 2-sided p values Figure 2. Viral load differences according to age in infants with RSV infection. The Y axis represents RSV loads in log10 copies/mL and the X axis differences in viral loads in outpatients (orange) and inpatients (blue) in the three age groups. Comparisons by Mann Whitney test. Methods Previously healthy children < 2 years old with mild (outpatients) and severe (inpatients) RSV infection were enrolled and nasopharyngeal swabs were obtained for RSV typing and quantitation by real-time PCR. Patients were stratified by age (0-< 3, 3-6, and >6-24 months) and multivariable analyses were performed to identify clinical and viral factors associated with severe disease. Results From 2014-2018 we enrolled 534 children with RSV infection: 130 outpatients and 404 inpatients. Median duration of illness was 4 days for both groups, yet viral loads were higher in outpatients than inpatient in the three age groups (Fig 1). Wheezing was more frequent in outpatients of older age (>3 months) than in inpatients (p< 0.01), while fever was more common in inpatients that outpatients (p< 0.01) and increased with age (Fig 2). Adjusted analyses confirmed that increased work of breathing and fever were consistently associated with hospitalization irrespective of age, while wheezing in infants >3 months, and higher RSV loads in children >6-24 months were independently associated with reduced disease severity. Conclusion Age had a significant impact defining the interactions among viral loads, specific clinical manifestations and disease severity in children with RSV infection. These observations highlight the importance of patient stratification when evaluating interventions against RSV.

Abstract Background C-itra is the drug of choice for treatment of most non-CNS, non-life-threatening forms of endemic mycoses (EM), including histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, sporotrichosis and talaromycosis. SUBA represents a new formulation of itraconazole that utilizes nanotechnology to improve bioavailability when administered orally. SUBA is formulated as nanoparticles allowing for absorption in the small bowel while not relying on gastric acidity for optimal absorption. MSG-15 is an open-label, comparative clinical trial comparing SUBA to c-itra for the treatment of EM. Herein we report the final PK and AE profiles of these two compounds. Methods Subjects with proven and probable EM were eligible this open-label comparative study. The protocol allowed up to 14 d of prior therapy with any antifungal for this episode of EM. Subjects were randomized to receive either SUBA 130 mg po bid or c-itra 200 mg po bid for up to 6 months. Follow up occurred at 7, 14, 28, 42, 84 and 180 d post-enrollment. PK samples were obtained at 7, 14, and 42 d. Clinical assessment, including symptom assessment, AEs, overall drug tolerance, and quality of life were assessed at each visit. We used descriptive statistics for this analysis. Results 89 subjects with EM entered the trial, including 43 on SUBA and 46 on c-itra. We measured PK serum levels of itra and hydroxyl-itra at days 7, 14, and 42 and these data are depicted in Figures 1-3. There were no significant differences in these levels, including combined itra/hydroxyl-itra levels, among the two study arms. AUC for itra and hydroxyl-itra were similar for both arms. AEs as assessed at each study evaluation were also quite similar among the two study arms. Overall, any AE occurred in 74% vs 85% of SUBA and c-itra recipients, respectively (NS). Drug-related AEs occurred in 35% vs 41% of SUBA and itra recipients, respectively (NS). Most common drug-related AEs included cardiovascular (edema and hypertension), nausea and loss of appetite. Combined Itraconazole and Hydroxy-itraconazole Concentration Over Time Conclusion Compared to c-itra, SUBA demonstrates almost identical serum levels despite being dosed at roughly 60% standard dosing for c-itra (130 mg po bid vs 200 mg po bid). SUBA is slightly better tolerated than c-itra, although the specific AEs are similar. Disclosures Peter G.
