Area under the concentration–time curve (AUC)-guided vancomycin treatment is associated with decreased nephrotoxicity. It is preferable to obtain two samples to estimate the AUC. This study examined the usefulness of AUC estimation via trough concentration (Cmin)-only sampling of 260 adults infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) who received vancomycin. The exact Cmin sampling time was used for Bayesian estimation. A significantly higher early treatment response was observed in patients with a day 2 AUC ≥ 400 µg·h/mL than those with <400 µg·h/mL, and a significantly higher early nephrotoxicity rate was observed in patients with a day 2 AUC ≥ 600 µg·h/mL than those with <600 µg·h/mL. These AUC cutoff values constituted independent factors for each outcome. In sub-analysis, the discrimination ability for early clinical outcomes using these AUC cutoffs was confirmed only in patients with q12 vancomycin administration. A significant difference in early treatment response using the 400 µg·h/mL cutoff was obtained only in patients with low-risk infections. The usefulness of the vancomycin AUC target to decrease nephrotoxicity while assuring clinical efficacy was even confirmed with a single Cmin measurement. However, assessment with two samples might be required in patients with q24 administration or high/moderate-risk MRSA infections.

Carbapenem Antibiotic

Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined for imipenem-cilastatin and a carbapenem antibiotic, L-695,256, active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in rhesus monkeys and a chimpanzee. L-695,256 had larger areas under the concentration-time curve than imipenem-cilastatin (30 +/- 5 versus 24 +/- 1 micrograms.h/ml in the rhesus monkeys and 77 versus 60 micrograms.h/ml in the chimpanzee) and a longer half-life at beta phase (1.2 +/- 0.1 versus 0.6 +/- 0.1 h in the rhesus monkeys and 1.0 versus 0.8 h in the chimpanzee). Resistance to hydrolysis by the renal dehydropeptidase-I allowed L-695,256 to be administered as a single agent.

ABSTRACT The efficacy of telavancin, a bactericidal lipoglycopeptide, was compared to that of vancomycin and linezolid against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a murine pneumonia model. Telavancin produced greater reductions in lung bacterial titer and mortality than did vancomycin and linezolid at human doses equivalent to those described by the area under the concentration-time curve. These results suggest the potential utility of telavancin for treatment of MRSA pneumonia.

Abstract Background Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia is associated with poor outcomes and increased mortality. Daptomycin (DAP) and ceftaroline (CPT) in combination has been explored as a potential treatment option and showed improved outcomes compared to vancomycin/standard therapy. CPT monotherapy has been evaluated as salvage therapy for MRSA bacteremia but, to our knowledge, not as a comparator to DAP-CPT combination therapy. The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of DAP and CPT combination therapy to CPT monotherapy in the setting of MRSA bacteremia. Methods A retrospective chart review of adult patients (≥ 18 years of age) admitted to University Health from January 2017 to December 2020 with a diagnosis of MRSA bacteremia was performed. Patients received either CPT monotherapy or DAP-CPT combination therapy for a minimum of 48 hours during their course of therapy. Results Thirty-two patients met inclusion criteria and were evaluated. Primary source of infection was pulmonary in the CPT monotherapy group (n=7/24; 29.2%) and osteomyelitis in the DAP-CPT combination group (n= 4/8; 50.0%). Median duration of bacteremia was 8 days and 9 days in the CPT monotherapy and DAP-CPT combination group, respectively. Microbiological cure was achieved in 95.8% (n=23/24) of patients in the CPT monotherapy and 100% (n=8/8) of patients in the DAP-CPT combination group. Bacteremia relapse (30 day, p=0.62; 60 day, p=0.63), readmission rates (30 day, p=0.62; 60 day, p=0.63), and mortality rates (30 day, p=0.70; 90 day, p=0.85) were similar in both groups. There was no statistically significant difference in safety parameters, including incidence of acute kidney injury (p=1.00) and creatine kinase elevations (p=1.00). Bone marrow suppression after at least 72 hours of therapy, including anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia, was also not statistically significant between groups. Conclusion This study was unable to find a statistically significant difference in clinical outcomes between patients receiving CPT monotherapy or DAP-CPT combination therapy. A large prospective, randomized controlled trial to assess CPT monotherapy and DAP-CPT combination therapy for the treatment of persistent MRSA bacteremia is warranted.
