ABSTRACT Omadacycline is a novel aminomethylcycline antibiotic with potent activity against Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). We investigated the pharmacodynamic activity of omadacycline against 10 MSSA/MRSA strains in a neutropenic murine thigh model. The median 24-h area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)/MIC values associated with net stasis and 1-log kill were 21.9 and 57.7, respectively.

ABSTRACT Omadacycline is an effective therapy for community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). Given its potent activity against methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), we sought to determine the pharmacodynamic activity and target pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) exposures associated with a therapeutic effect in the neutropenic mouse pneumonia model against 10 MSSA/MRSA strains. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)/MIC associated with 1-log kill was noted at 24-h epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and plasma AUC/MIC exposures of ∼2 (ELF range, <0.93 to 19; plasma range, <1.06 to 17) and 2-log kill was noted at 24-h ELF and plasma AUC/MIC exposures of ∼12 (ELF range, 2.5 to 130; plasma range, 3.5 to 151).

ABSTRACT Telavancin displays potent in vitro and in vivo activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), including strains with reduced susceptibility to vancomycin. We compared the efficacies of telavancin and vancomycin against MRSA strains with vancomycin MICs of ≥1 μg/ml in a neutropenic murine lung infection model. Thirteen clinical MRSA isolates (7 vancomycin-susceptible, 2 vancomycin-heteroresistant [hVISA], and 4 vancomycin-intermediate [VISA] isolates) were tested after 24 h, and 7 isolates (1 hVISA and 4 VISA isolates) were tested after 48 h of exposure. Mice were administered subcutaneous doses of telavancin at 40 mg/kg of body weight every 12 h (q12h) or of vancomycin at 110 mg/kg q12h; doses were designed to simulate the area under the concentration-time curve for the free, unbound fraction of drug (fAUC) observed for humans given telavancin at 10 mg/kg q24h or vancomycin at 1 g q12h. Efficacy was expressed as the 24- or 48-h change in lung bacterial density from pretreatment counts. At dose initiation, the mean bacterial load was 6.16 ± 0.26 log10 CFU/ml, which increased by averages of 1.26 ± 0.55 and 1.74 ± 0.68 log in untreated mice after 24 and 48 h, respectively. At both time points, similar CFU reductions were noted for telavancin and vancomycin against MRSA, with vancomycin MICs of ≤2 μg/ml. Both drugs were similarly efficacious after 24 and 48 h of treatment against the hVISA strains tested. Against VISA isolates, telavancin reduced bacterial burdens significantly more than vancomycin for 1 of 4 isolates after 24 h and for 3 of 4 isolates after 48 h. These data support the potential utility of telavancin for the treatment of MRSA pneumonia caused by pathogens with reduced susceptibility to vancomycin.

ABSTRACTTorezolid phosphate (TR-701) is the phosphate monoester prodrug of the oxazolidinone TR-700 which demonstrates potentin vitroactivity against Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-susceptibleStaphylococcus aureus(MSSA) and methicillin-resistantS. aureus(MRSA). The pharmacodynamics of TR-701 or TR-700 (TR-701/700) againstS. aureusis incompletely defined. Single-dose pharmacokinetic studies were conducted in mice for TR-701/700. Forty-eight-hour dose range and 24-hour dose fractionation studies were conducted in a neutropenic mouse thigh model ofS. aureusinfection using MRSA ATCC 33591 to identify the dose and schedule of administration of TR-701/700 that was linked with optimized antimicrobial effect. Additional dose range studies compared the efficacies of TR-701/700 and linezolid for one MSSA strain and one community-associated MRSA strain. In dose range studies, TR-701/700 was equally bactericidal against MSSA and MRSA. Mean doses of 37.6 and 66.9 mg/kg of body weight/day of TR-701/700 resulted in stasis and 1 log CFU/g decreases in bacterial densities, respectively, at 24 h, and mean doses of 35.3, 46.6, and 71.1 mg/kg/day resulted in stasis and 1 and 2 log CFU/g reductions, respectively, at 48 h. Linezolid administered at doses as high as 150 mg/kg/day did not achieve stasis at either time point. Dose fractionation studies demonstrated that the area under the concentration-time curve over 24 h in the steady state divided by the MIC (AUC/MIC ratio) was the pharmacodynamic index for TR-701/700 that was linked with efficacy. TR-701/700 was highly active against MSSA and MRSA,in vivo, and was substantially more efficacious than linezolid, although linezolid's top exposure has half the human exposure. Dose fractionation studies showed that AUC/MIC was the pharmacodynamic index linked with efficacy, indicating that once-daily dosing in humans is feasible.

ABSTRACT We compared the efficacy of telavancin (TLV) and daptomycin (DAP) in an experimental rabbit endocarditis model caused by two clinically derived daptomycin-resistant (DAPr) methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. TLV treatment significantly reduced MRSA densities in all target tissues and increased the percentage of these organs rendered culture negative compared to those with the untreated control or DAP-treated animals. These results demonstrate that TLV has potent in vivo efficacy against DAPr MRSA isolates in this invasive endovascular infection model.

ABSTRACTTedizolid, the active component of the prodrug tedizolid phosphate, is a novel oxazolidinone that is approximately 4 times more active by weight than linezolid againstStaphylococcus aureusin vitro. Thein vivoefficacy of tedizolid phosphate (15 mg/kg body weight intravenous [i.v.] twice a day [b.i.d.]) was compared to those of vancomycin (30 mg/kg i.v. b.i.d.) and daptomycin (18 mg/kg i.v. once a day [q.d.]) in a rabbit model of aortic valve endocarditis (AVE) caused by methicillin-resistantS. aureusstrain COL (infection inoculum of 107CFU). Median vegetation titers of daptomycin-treated rabbits were significantly lower than those of rabbits treated with tedizolid phosphate (15 mg/kg b.i.d.) (P= 0.016), whereas titers for vancomycin-treated compared to tedizolid-treated rabbits were not different (P= 0.984). The numbers of organisms in spleen and kidney tissues were similar for all treatment groups. A dose-ranging experiment was performed with tedizolid phosphate (2, 4, and 8 mg/kg b.i.d.) compared to vancomycin (30 mg/kg b.i.d.), using a higher infecting inoculum (108CFU) to determine the lowest efficacious dose of tedizolid phosphate. Tedizolid phosphate (2 mg/kg) (equivalent to 60% of the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC0–24) for the human 200-mg dose approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) was not efficacious. Tedizolid phosphate at 4 mg/kg (equivalent to 75% of the AUC0–24for the human 400-mg dose) and 8 mg/kg produced lower vegetation titers than the control, but neither was as efficacious as vancomycin.

ABSTRACT The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the efficacy of vancomycin at standard doses (VAN-SD) to that of VAN at adjusted doses (VAN-AD) in achieving a VAN area under the curve/MIC ratio (AUC/MIC) of ≥400 against three methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains with different microdilution VAN MICs in an experimental endocarditis model. The valve vegetation bacterial counts after 48 h of VAN therapy were compared, and no differences were observed between the two treatment groups for any of the three strains tested. Overall, for VAN-SD and VAN-AD, the rates of sterile vegetations were 15/45 (33.3%) and 21/49 (42.8%) (P = 0.343), while the medians (interquartile ranges [IQRs]) for log10 CFU/g of vegetation were 2 (0 to 6.9) and 2 (0 to 4.5) (P = 0.384), respectively. In conclusion, this VAN AUC/MIC pharmacodynamic target was not a good predictor of vancomycin efficacy in MRSA experimental endocarditis.

ABSTRACTCationic antimicrobial peptides (CAPs) play important roles in host immune defenses. Plectasin is a defensin-like CAP isolated from the saprophytic fungusPseudoplectania nigrella. NZ2114 is a novel variant of plectasin with potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. In this study, we investigated (i) thein vivopharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) characteristics of NZ2114 and (ii) thein vivoefficacy of NZ2114 in comparison with those of two conventional antibiotics, vancomycin or daptomycin, in an experimental rabbit infective endocarditis (IE) model due to a methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA) strain (ATCC 33591). All NZ2114 regimens (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg of body weight, intravenously [i.v.], twice daily for 3 days) significantly decreased MRSA densities in cardiac vegetations, kidneys, and spleen versus those in untreated controls, except in one scenario (5 mg/kg, splenic MRSA counts). The efficacy of NZ2114 was clearly dose dependent in all target tissues. At 20 mg/kg, NZ2114 showed a significantly greater efficacy than vancomycin (P< 0.001) and an efficacy similar to that of daptomycin. Of importance, only NZ2114 (in 10- and 20-mg/kg regimens) prevented posttherapy relapse in cardiac vegetations, kidneys, and spleen, while bacterial counts in these target tissues continued to increase in vancomycin- and daptomycin-treated animals. Thesein vivoefficacies were equivalent and significantly correlated with three PK indices investigated:fCmax/MIC (the maximum concentration of the free, unbound fraction of a drug in serum divided by the MIC),fAUC/MIC (where AUC is the area under the concentration-time curve), andf%T>MIC(%T>MICis the cumulative percentage of a 24-h period that the drug concentration exceeds the MIC under steady-state pharmacokinetic conditions), as analyzed by a sigmoid maximum-effect (Emax) model (R2> 0.69). The superior efficacy of NZ2114 in this MRSA IE model suggests the potential for further development of this compound for treating serious MRSA infections.

Abstract Background There is a concern that the vancomycin MIC of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) could be increased by concomitant colistin administered against multidrug-resistant gram-negative pathogen. Methods We confirmed the molecular genotypes of MRSA blood isolates collected in a tertiary hospital in Seoul, South Korea, and selected representative strains from the community-associated MRSA strains (CA-MRSA, ST72-SCCmec IV) and hospital-acquired MRSA strains (HA-MRSA, ST5-SCCmec II). USA CA-MRSA (USA300, ST8-SCCmec IV) and MRSA standard strain (ATCC 43300, ST39-SCCmec II) were also used for comparison with representative. We identified changes of the vancomycin MIC in MRSA by colistin exposure in a checkerboard assay and performed a time-kill assay to evaluate the combined effect of vancomycin and colistin on MRSA. In addition, we administered vancomycin, colistin, and combination of two antibiotics, respectively, to a neutropenic murine thigh infection model to evaluate the in vivo antagonistic effect of colistin on vancomycin treatment. Results In the checkerboard assay, all 4 MRSA strains showed a tendency for the vancomycin MIC to increase along with increasing concentrations of colistin. However, the time-kill assay showed the antagonism of vancomycin and colistin only against ST5-MRSA, when vancomycin concentration was 2 times the vancomycin MIC (Figure 1). No antagonism was observed in other strains. In the murine thigh infection model of ST5-MRSA, vancomycin monotherapy showed a significant log CFU reduction compared with a combination of vancomycin and colistin at 24 hours, demonstrating the antagonistic effect of vancomycin and colistin combination (Figure 2). Conclusion This study showed that exposure of colistin to certain MRSA strains may reduce the susceptibility to vancomycin. Combination therapy with vancomycin and colistin for MDR pathogens infections might result in treatment failure for concurrent MRSA infection. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

ABSTRACTCommunity-associated methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(CA-MRSA) can cause osteomyelitis with severe sepsis and/or local complications in which a Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) role is suspected.In vitrosub-MIC antibiotic effects on growth and PVL production by 11 PVL+MRSA strains, including the major CA-MRSA clones (USA300, including the LAC strain; USA400; and USA1000), and 11 PVL+methicillin-susceptibleS. aureus(MSSA) strains were tested in microplate culture. Time-kill analyses with ceftobiprole at its MIC were also run with LAC. Efficacies of ceftobiprole (40 mg/kg of body weight subcutaneously [s.c.] four times a day [q.i.d.]) or vancomycin (60 mg/kg intramuscularly [i.m.] twice a day [b.i.d.]) alone or combined with rifampin (10 mg/kg b.i.d.) against rabbit CA-MRSA osteomyelitis, induced by tibial injection of 3.4 × 107CFU of LAC, were compared. Treatment, started 14 days postinoculation, lasted 14 days.In vitro, 6/11 strains cultured with sub-MICs of ceftobiprole produced 1.6- to 4.8-fold more PVL than did the controls, with no link to specific clones. Rifampin decreased PVL production by all tested strains. In time-kill analyses at the LAC MIC (0.75 mg/liter), PVL production rose transiently at 6 and 8 h and then declined 2-fold at 16 h, concomitant with a 2-log10-CFU-count decrease.In vivo, the mean log10CFU/g of bone for ceftobiprole (1.44 ± 0.40) was significantly lower than that for vancomycin (2.37 ± 1.22) (P= 0.034), with 7/10 versus 5/11 bones sterilized, respectively. Combination with rifampin enhanced ceftobiprole (1.16 ± 0.04 CFU/g of bone [P= 0.056], 11/11 sterile bones) and vancomycin (1.23 ± 0.06 CFU/g [P= 0.011], 11/11 sterile bones) efficacies. Ceftobiprole bactericidal activity and the rifampin anti-PVL effect could play a role in these findings, which should be of interest for treating CA-MRSA osteomyelitis.

ABSTRACTTomopenem (formerly CS-023) is a novel carbapenem with improved activity against diverse hospital pathogens, includingPseudomonas aeruginosaand methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA), and has a half-life about twice longer than the half-lives of other carbapenems such as imipenem and meropenem. Our objective in this study was to estimate the efficacy of tomopenem in humans by human-simulated exposures in a neutropenic murine thigh infection model against 9 clinical isolates ofP. aeruginosawith MICs of 4 to 32 μg/ml and 9 clinical isolates of MRSA with MICs of 4 to 16 μg/ml. Human-simulated dosing regimens in neutropenic mice were designed to approximate the cumulative percentage of a 24-h period that the free drug concentration exceeds the MIC under steady-state pharmacokinetic conditions (f%TMIC) observed with tomopenem at 750 and 1,500 mg given as a 0.5-h infusion three times a day (TID) in humans. As reported previously, there was no difference between the target values ofP. aeruginosaand MRSA required for efficacy (K. Sugihara et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother.54:5298-5302, 2010). Tomopenem at 750 mg showed bactericidal or bacteriostatic effects against 10 of 11 strains ofP. aeruginosaand MRSA with MICs of ≤8 μg/ml (f%TMIC≥ 41), and tomopenem at 1,500 mg showed bactericidal effects against 16 of 17 strains ofP. aeruginosaand MRSA with MICs of ≤16 μg/ml (f%TMIC≥ 43). Meropenem at 1,000 mg TID was tested for comparison purposes and showed bactericidal or bacteriostatic effects against 3 of 4 strains ofP. aeruginosawith MICs of ≤4 μg/ml (f%TMIC≥ 33). From these results, tomopenem is expected to be effective with anf%TMICof over 40 againstP. aeruginosaand MRSA strains with MICs of ≤8 μg/ml at doses of 750 mg TID and strains with MICs of ≤16 μg/ml at doses of 1,500 mg TID.
