ABSTRACTProgressively enhanced activity of a humanized tigecycline (TGC) regimen was noted over 3 days against an extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producingEscherichia coliisolate and an ESBL-producingKlebsiella pneumoniaeisolate. Bacterial density reduction approximated 3 log10approaching bactericidal activity at 72 h. This level of activity has not been previously noted for compounds such as tetracyclines, normally considered bacteriostatic antimicrobials. Extended regimen studiesin vivomay aid in better delineation of antimicrobial effects, producing improved correlation with clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the in vivo efficacies of meropenem and ertapenem against extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolates with a wide range of MICs. Human-simulated dosing regimens in mice were designed to approximate the free drug percent time above the MIC (fT>MIC) observed for humans following meropenem at 1 g every 8 h and ertapenem at 1 g every 24 h. An in vivo neutropenic mouse thigh infection model was used to examine the bactericidal effects against 31 clinical ESBL Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates and 2 non-ESBL isolates included for comparison at a standard 105 inoculum. Three isolates were examined at a high 107 inoculum as well. Meropenem displayed greater in vitro potency, with a median MIC (range) (μg/ml) of 0.125 (0.03 to 32), than did ertapenem, with 0.5 (0.012 to 128). Seven of the 31 ESBL isolates were removed from the efficacy analysis due to their inability to establish infection in the mouse model. When MICs were ≤1.5 μg/ml for ertapenem (≤0.5 μg/ml for meropenem), similar reductions in CFU (≈ 2-log kill) were observed for both ertapenem (fT>MIC ≥ 23%) and meropenem (fT>MIC ≥ 75%). Ertapenem showed bacterial regrowth for seven of eight isolates, with MICs of ≥2 μg/ml (fT>MIC ≤ 20%), while meropenem displayed antibacterial potency that varied from a static effect to a 1-log bacterial reduction in these isolates (fT>MIC = 30 to 65%). At a 107 inoculum, both agents eradicated bacteria due to adequate exposures (fT>MIC = 20 to 45%). Due to low MICs, no difference in bacterial kill was noted for the majority of ESBL isolates tested. However, for isolates with raised ertapenem MICs of ≥2 μg/ml, meropenem displayed sustained efficacy due to its greater in vitro potency and higher resultant fT>MIC.

ABSTRACT NOSO-502 is a novel odilorhabdin antibiotic with potent activity against Enterobacteriaceae. The goal of these studies was to determine which pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) indices and magnitude best correlated with efficacy in the murine thigh infection model. Six Escherichia coli and 6 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates were utilized. MICs were determined using CLSI methods and ranged from 1 to 4 mg/liter. A neutropenic murine thigh infection model was utilized for all treatment studies. Single-dose plasma pharmacokinetics were determined in mice after subcutaneous administration of 7.81, 31.25, 125, and 500 mg/kg of body weight. Pharmacokinetic studies exhibited peak concentration (Cmax) values of 1.49 to 84.6 mg/liter, area under the concentration-time curve from 0 h to infinity (AUC0–∞) values of 1.94 to 352 mg · h/liter, and beta elimination half-lives of 0.41 to 1.1 h. Dose fractionation studies were performed using total drug doses of 7.81 mg/kg to 2,000 mg/kg fractionated into regimens of every 3 h (q3h), q6h, q12h, or q24h. Nonlinear regression analysis demonstrated that AUC/MIC was the PK/PD parameter that best correlated with efficacy (R2, 0.86). In subsequent studies, we used the neutropenic murine thigh infection model to determine the magnitude of NOSO-502 AUC/MIC needed for the efficacy against a diverse group of Enterobacteriaceae. Mice were treated with 4-fold-increasing doses (range, 3.91 to 1,000 mg/kg) of NOSO-502 every 6 h. The mean 24-h free-drug AUC/MIC (fAUC)/MIC) magnitudes associated with net stasis and 1-log kill endpoint for K. pneumoniae were 4.22 and 17.7, respectively. The mean fAUC/MIC magnitude associated with net stasis endpoint for E. coli was 10.4. NOSO-502 represents a promising novel, first-in-class odilorhabdin antibiotic with in vivo potency against Enterobacteriaceae.

ABSTRACTA retrospective study was conducted at two medical centers in Taiwan to evaluate the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and risk factors for mortality among patients treated with a carbapenem for bacteremia caused by extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing organisms. A total of 251 patients with bacteremia caused by ESBL-producingEscherichia coliandKlebsiella pneumoniaeisolates treated by a carbapenem were identified. Among these ESBL-producing isolates, rates of susceptibility to ertapenem (MICs ≤ 0.25 μg/ml) were 83.8% and 76.4%, respectively; those to meropenem were 100% and 99.3%, respectively; and those to imipenem were 100% and 97.9%, respectively. There were no significant differences in the critical illness rate (P= 0.1) or sepsis-related mortality rate (P= 0.2) for patients with bacteremia caused by ESBL-producingK. pneumoniae(140 isolates, 55.8%) andE. coli(111 isolates, 44.2%). Multivariate analysis of variables related to sepsis-related mortality revealed that the presence of severe sepsis (odds ratio [OR], 15.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.84 to 43.34;P< 0.001), hospital-onset bacteremia (OR, 4.65; 95% CI, 1.42 to 15.24;P= 0.01), and ertapenem-nonsusceptible isolates (OR, 5.12; 95% CI, 2.04 to 12.88;P= 0.001) were independent risk factors. The patients receiving inappropriate therapy had a higher sepsis-related mortality than those with appropriate therapy (P= 0.002), irrespective of ertapenem, imipenem, or meropenem therapy. Infections due to the ertapenem-susceptible isolates (MICs ≤ 0.25 μg/ml) were associated with a more favorable outcome than those due to ertapenem-nonsusceptible isolates (MICs > 0.25 μg/ml), if treated by a carbapenem. However, the mortality for patients with bacteremic episodes due to isolates with MICs of ≤0.5 μg/ml was similar to the mortality for those whose isolates had MICs of >0.5 μg/ml (P= 0.8). Such a finding supports the rationale of the current CLSI 2011 criteria for carbapenems forEnterobacteriaceae.

ABSTRACT The next-generation aminoglycoside plazomicin, in development for infections due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterobacteriaceae, was evaluated alongside comparators for bactericidal activity in minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and time-kill (TK) assays against MDR Enterobacteriaceae isolates with characterized aminoglycoside and β-lactam resistance mechanisms. Overall, plazomicin and colistin were the most potent, with plazomicin demonstrating an MBC50/90 of 0.5/4 μg/ml and sustained 3-log10 kill against MDR Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter spp.

ABSTRACTAlthough resistance to tigecycline has been reported in surveillance studies, very few reports have described the emergence of resistancein vivo. We report two cases of patients with infections due to SHV-12-producingKlebsiella pneumoniaeandK. pneumoniaecarbapenemase-3 (KPC-3)-producingEscherichia coli, which developed tigecycline resistancein vivoafter treatment. The reported limited experience underlines the risk of occurrence of a tigecycline MIC increase under treatment pressure.

ABSTRACTGram-negative bacteria are evolving to produce β-lactamases of increasing diversity that challenge antimicrobial chemotherapy. OP0595 is a new diazabicyclooctane serine β-lactamase inhibitor which acts also as an antibiotic and as a β-lactamase-independent β-lactam “enhancer” againstEnterobacteriaceae. Here we determined the optimal concentration of OP0595 in combination with piperacillin, cefepime, and meropenem, in addition to the antibacterial activity of OP0595 alone and in combination with cefepime, inin vitrotime-kill studies and anin vivoinfection model against five strains of CTX-M-15-positiveEscherichia coliand five strains of KPC-positiveKlebsiella pneumoniae. An OP0595 concentration of 4 μg/ml was found to be sufficient for an effective combination with all three β-lactam agents. In bothin vitrotime-kill studies and anin vivomodel of infection, cefepime-OP0595 showed stronger efficacy than cefepime alone against all β-lactamase-positive strains tested, whereas OP0595 alone showed weaker or no efficacy. Taken together, these data indicate that combinational use of OP0595 and a β-lactam agent is important to exert the antimicrobial functions of OP0595.

Peritonitis Model

ABSTRACTA lethal peritonitis model was induced in mice with aKlebsiella pneumoniaeisolate producing the carbapenemase OXA-48. Administration of a single dose (up to 100 mg/kg) of the antibiotic piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem-cilastatin, ertapenem, or cefotaxime had little or no impact on lethality. Ceftazidime had the highest efficacyin vivo, which mirrored itsin vitroactivity; this was not the case for carbapenems. Therefore, ceftazidime may be recommended for the treatment of infections due to OXA-48 producers if they do not coproduce an extended-spectrum β-lactamase or a plasmid-mediated AmpC cephalosporinase.
