Abstract Background Bacillus anthracis, the etiological agent of anthrax, is one of the agents most likely to be used in a biologic attack. Omadacycline previously has demonstrated potent in vitro and in vivo activity against B. anthracis. This project evaluated the in vitro activity of omadacycline against a larger set of B. anthracis strains across two laboratories. Methods Methods: Antibiotic susceptibility testing followed Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute methods against a collection of 53 B. anthracis strains at the University of Florida (UF) and 50 B. anthracis strains at MRIGlobal, representing human and animal isolates from North America, Africa, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for omadacycline and comparators at both sites (doxycycline, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin) were determined by broth microdilution. Results Results: In the UF study, omadacycline demonstrated an MIC50 of 0.015 mg/L and an MIC90 of 0.03 mg/L against B. anthracis. Omadacycline MIC values were equal to or lower than doxycycline. In the MRIGlobal study, omadacycline demonstrated an MIC50 of 0.06 mg/L and an MIC90 of 0.06 mg/L (Table 1). All comparator MIC values were within ranges previously observed against these strains. Against a ciprofloxacin-resistant strain (MIC = 2 mg/L), omadacycline had an MIC value of 0.015 mg/L; against a doxycycline-resistant strain (MIC = 4 mg/L), omadacycline had an MIC value of 0.06 mg/L. Reproducibility was observed between the 2 laboratories for omadacycline in vitro activity against B. anthracis (Table 2). Table 1. MIC Concentration Summary for Omadacycline and Comparators Against B. anthracis Strains Table 2. Reproducibility of Omadacycline in Vitro Activity Against B. anthracis Strains Conclusion Based on the in vitro activity in both studies, omadacycline has the potential to be effective in treating anthrax infection. Reproducibility of omadacycline in vitro activity against B. anthracis was observed at 2 independent study sites. Disclosures Alisa W. Serio, PhD, Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

ABSTRACT DW-224a showed the most potent in vitro activity among the quinolone compounds tested against clinical isolates of gram-positive bacteria. Against gram-negative bacteria, DW-224a was slightly less active than the other fluoroquinolones. The in vivo activities of DW-224a against gram-positive bacteria were more potent than those of other quinolones.

Abstract Background Cefiderocol (S-649266, CFDC) is a novel siderophore cephalosporin against Gram-negatives, including carbapenem (CR)-resistant strains. Its spectrum includes both the Enterobacteriaceae but also nonfermenters, including Stenotrophomonas maltophilia—an opportunistic pathogen with intrinsic resistance to carbapenem antibiotics. In this study, in vitro activity and in vivo efficacy of CFDC and comparators against S. maltophilia were determined. Methods MICs of CFDC and comparators (trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX), minocycline (MINO), tigecycline (TGC), ciprofloxacin (CPFX), cefepime (CFPM), meropenem (MEPM), and colistin (CL)) were determined by broth microdilution method as recommended by CLSI. The MIC against CFDC was determined using iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller–Hinton broth. In vivo efficacy of CFDC, CFPM, ceftazidime–avibactam (CAZ/AVI), MEPM, and CL was evaluated using neutropenic murine systemic infection model caused by strain SR21970. The 50% effective doses (ED50s) were calculated by the logit method using the survival number at each dose 7 days after infection. Results MIC90 of CFDC and comparators against the 216 clinical isolates from global countries collected in SIDERO-CR 2014/2016 study are shown in the table. CFDC, TMP/SMX, MINO, and TGC showed good activity with MIC90 of 0.5, 0.25/4.75, 1, and 2 µg/mL, respectively. CFDC, MINO, and TGC inhibited growth of all tested strains at ≤1, ≤4, and ≤8 µg/mL although two strains showed resistance to TMP/SMX. MICs of CFPM, CAZ/AVI, MEPM, and CL were ≥32 µg/mL. The ED50 of CFDC against S. maltophilia SR21970 with MIC of 0.125 mg/mL was 1.17 mg/kg/dose. Conversely, MICs of CFPM, CAZ/AVI, MEPM/CS, and CL against SR21970 were 32 μg/mL or higher, and ED50s were >100 mg/kg/dose, showing that CFDC had potent in vivo efficacy against S. maltophilia strain which was resistant to other antibiotics. Conclusion CFDC showed potent in vitro activity against S. maltophilia, including TMP/SMX-resistant isolates. CFDC also showed potent in vivo efficacy reflecting in vitro activity against S. maltophilia in murine systemic infection model. Disclosures A. Ito, Shionogi & Co., Ltd.: Employee, Salary. M.

ABSTRACT CbpA, an Escherichia coli DnaJ homolog, can function as a cochaperone for the DnaK/Hsp70 chaperone system, and its in vitro activity can be modulated by CbpM. We discovered that CbpM specifically inhibits the in vivo activity of CbpA, preventing it from functioning in cell growth and division. Furthermore, we have shown that CbpM interacts with CbpA in vivo during stationary phase, suggesting that the inhibition of activity is a result of the interaction. These results reveal that the activity of the E. coli DnaK system can be regulated in vivo by a specific inhibitor.

Like cysteine and some of its derivatives, tyrosine inhibits liver catalase not only « in vitro » but also « in vivo ». Among the analogues of tyrosine tested, dihydroxyphenylalanine and dihydroxyphenethylamine possess « in vitro » the same activity as tyrosine; the activity of p-hydroxyphenylethanolamine is lower; phenylalanine is inactive. The «in vitro» activity seems to be directly correlated with the auto-oxidability of the various compounds. None of the analogues of tyrosine tested was active «in vivo». The depressing activity of cysteine and of tyrosine on liver catalase apparently has no relationship with the similar action of tumors.
