Objective. To assess the in vitro activity of ceftazidime-avibactam against clinical Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in various regions of Russia based on results of local susceptibility testing by disk diffusion method. Materials and Methods. Overall, 160 laboratories located in 61 Russian cities participated in this surveillance during 2018-2020. All consecutive clinical isolates of Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in each participating laboratory were included in the study. Ceftazidime-avibactam susceptibility testing was done by disc-diffusion method in accordance with current EUCAST recommendations. Susceptibility data for carbapenems and III-IV generation cephalosporins, as well as results of carbapenemases detection, were also reported, if available. All the data were recorded in electronic case report form developed on the OpenClinica online platform (www.openclinica.com). Data analysis and reporting were done using AMRcloud online platform (https://amrcloud.net/). Results. In total, we received information on antimicrobial susceptibility of 22,121 isolates, including 17,456 (78.9%) Enterobacterales and 4,665 (21.1%) P. aeruginosa. Less than 9% of Enterobacterales isolates were resistant to ceftazidime-avibactam. At the same time rates of resistance to ceftazidime, cefotaxime, cefepime, ertapenem, imipenem, and meropenem were 54.1%, 58.9%, 59.4%, 41.4%, 23.9%, and 21.3%. Among Enterobacterales the highest level of resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam was detected in K. pneumoniae (16.5%), lowest – in E. coli (2.1%). Some increase of resistance to ceftazidimeavibactam was noted during the study – from 7.8% in 2018-2019 to 9.6% in 2020 (p = 0.0001). Rate of resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam in P. aeruginosa was 33.1%. At the same time rates of resistance to ceftazidime, cefepime, imipenem, and meropenem were 51.1%, 54.5%, 50%, and 47.3%. During the study there was statistically significant decrease in resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam in P. aeruginosa (p = 0.0001). Resistance rates for all beta-lactams for both Enterobacterales and P. aeruginosa were higher in nosocomial isolates than in community-acquired isolates. Conclusions. Ceftazidime-avibactam demonstrated significantly higher in vitro activity against Enterobacterales and P. aeruginosa Russian clinical isolates comparing with commonly used carbapenems and extended spectrum cephalosporins.

Abstract Objectives To investigate the in vitro activity of ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam against clinical isolates of MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Qatar, as well as the mechanisms of resistance. Methods MDR P. aeruginosa isolated between October 2014 and September 2015 from all public hospitals in Qatar were included. The BD PhoenixTM system was used for identification and initial antimicrobial susceptibility testing, while Liofilchem MIC Test Strips (Liofilchem, Roseto degli Abruzzi, Italy) were used for confirmation of ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam susceptibility. Ten ceftazidime/avibactam- and/or ceftolozane/tazobactam-resistant isolates were randomly selected for WGS. Results A total of 205 MDR P. aeruginosa isolates were included. Of these, 141 (68.8%) were susceptible to ceftazidime/avibactam, 129 (62.9%) were susceptible to ceftolozane/tazobactam, 121 (59.0%) were susceptible to both and 56 (27.3%) were susceptible to neither. Twenty (9.8%) isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime/avibactam but not to ceftolozane/tazobactam and only 8 (3.9%) were susceptible to ceftolozane/tazobactam but not to ceftazidime/avibactam. Less than 50% of XDR isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime/avibactam or ceftolozane/tazobactam. The 10 sequenced isolates belonged to six different STs and all produced AmpC and OXA enzymes; 5 (50%) produced ESBL and 4 (40%) produced VIM enzymes. Conclusions MDR P. aeruginosa susceptibility rates to ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam were higher than those to all existing antipseudomonal agents, except colistin, but were less than 50% in extremely resistant isolates. Non-susceptibility to ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam was largely due to the production of ESBL and VIM enzymes. Ceftazidime/avibactam and ceftolozane/tazobactam are possible options for some patients with MDR P. aeruginosa in Qatar.

Abstract Objectives To evaluate the in vitro activity of olorofim, a new broad-spectrum antifungal with a novel mechanism of action, against a collection of 123 Spanish clinical isolates belonging to five Scedosporium species and Lomentospora prolificans. Methods The activity of olorofim against Scedosporium apiospermum (n = 30), Scedosporium boydii (n = 30), Scedosporium ellipsoideum (n = 10), Scedosporium aurantiacum (n = 20), Scedosporium dehoogii (n = 3) and Lomentospora prolificans (n = 30) was compared with that of amphotericin B, voriconazole, isavuconazole and micafungin by performing EUCAST and CLSI reference methods for antifungal susceptibility testing. Results Amphotericin B and isavuconazole showed MICs ≥2 mg/L for all the species evaluated and voriconazole was moderately active (GM, MIC50 and MIC90 values ≤2 mg/L) against all of them except L. prolificans. Micafungin was effective against S. apiospermum complex strains, but exhibited elevated MECs for S. dehoogii and S. aurantiacum. Olorofim showed low MICs for all the Scedosporium strains tested (GM values were lower than 0.130 and 0.339 by the EUCAST method and the CLSI method, respectively, for all of the species), including those belonging to the MDR species L. prolificans, for which GM values were 0.115 and 0.225 mg/L by the EUCAST method and the CLSI method, respectively, while the GMs for the rest of the antifungals evaluated were higher than 3.732 mg/L using both methodologies. Conclusions Olorofim displayed promising in vitro activity against the Scedosporium and L. prolificans strains tested, some of which have reduced susceptibility to the antifungals that are currently in use.

Abstract Background Ceftolozane-tazobactam (C/T) is a novel β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor combination with a broad spectrum of activity that includes Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro activity of C/T and relevant comparators vs. a large collection of antimicrobial non-susceptible (NS) P. aeruginosa clinical isolates obtained from patients across Canada (CANWARD, 2008–2016). Methods From January 2008 to December 2016, inclusive, 12 to 15 sentinel hospitals across Canada submitted clinical isolates from patients attending ERs, medical and surgical wards, hospital clinics, and ICUs (CANWARD). Each center was asked to annually submit clinical isolates (consecutive, one per patient/infection site) from blood, respiratory, urine, and wound infections. Susceptibility testing was performed using broth microdilution as described by CLSI. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa were defined as isolates that tested NS to at least one antimicrobial from ≥3 classes. Extensively drug-resistant (XDR) P. aeruginosa were defined as isolates that tested NS to at least one antimicrobial from ≥5 classes. Results 3229 P. aeruginosa isolates were obtained as a part of CANWARD. The in vitro activity of C/T and relevant comparators is presented below. Conclusion C/T demonstrated excellent in vitro activity vs. antimicrobial NS P. aeruginosa clinical isolates, including MDR, XDR, and meropenem NS subsets. It may prove useful in the treatment of infections caused by these organisms. Disclosures D.

Objective. To evaluate in vitro activity of biapenem and other clinically available carbapenems against Russian clinical isolates of Enterobacterales, Pseudomonas aeruginosa и Acinetobacter spp., including isolates with acquired fermentative mechanisms of resistance to β-lactams. Materials and Methods. A total of 3139 Enterobacterales isolates, 793 P. aeruginosa isolates and 634 Acinetobacter spp. isolates from hospitalized patients in 63 hospitals from 35 Russian cities were included in the study during 2018-2019. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for biapenem and other antimicrobials were determined in accordance with ISO 20776-1:2006. Carbapenemases genes were detected by commercially available real-time PCR kits AmpliSens® MDR KPC/OXA-48-FL and AmpliSens® MDR MBL-FL (Central Research Institute of Epidemiology, Russia). Data analysis and reporting was performed using AMRcloud online platform (www.amrcloud.net). Results. For all tested Escherichia coli isolates MIC50/90 were 0.06/0.125 mg/l for biapenem, 0.125⁄0.25 mg/l for imipenem, and 0.06/0.06 mg/l for meropenem. When MIC50/90 for ertapenem (0.015/0.125 mg/l for all isolates tested) were comparable to those of biapenem, a greater number of nosocomial E. coli isolates had MIC >4 mg/l for ertapenem (3.6%) than for biapenem (2.6%). MIC50/90 of Klebsiella pneumoniae for biapenem were 0.5⁄16 mg/l, for both imipenem and meropenem – 0.5⁄32 mg/l, for ertapenem – 2⁄32 mg/l. Resistance to oxyimino-β-lactams had no significant influence on activity of biapenem against Enterobacterales isolates. For 321 carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae isolates (ОХА-48 – 63.9%, NDM – 27.7%) biapenem has shown no advantages over imipenem and meropenem. МПК50/90 for nosocomial and community-acquired P. aeruginosa isolates were 8⁄64 mg/l and 0,5⁄16 mg/l for biapenem, 8⁄128 mg/l and 1⁄16 mg/l – for imipenem, 16⁄64 mg/l and 0,5⁄32 mg/l – for meropenem. All carbapenems, including biapenem, had very low in vitro activity against carbapenemaseproducing P. aeruginosa isolates. МПК50/90 of Acinetobacter spp. were 64⁄128 mg/l for biapenem, 64⁄128 mg/l – for imipenem, and 128⁄128 mg/l – for meropenem. Conclusions. According to the MIC distributions and MICs50/90 values independently of the presence of fermentative mechanisms of resistance to β-lactams, in vitro activity of biapenem against Russian clinical isolates of Enterobacterales, P. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. was comparable to those of imipenem and meropenem.

Abstract Background Meropenem/vaborbactam (MV) is a carbapenem and boronic acid–based β-lactamase inhibitor combination product with potent in vitro activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. As carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PSA) is primarily driven by porin mutations, efflux pumps, or infrequently by metallo-β-lactamases, vaborbactam is not expected to improve the in vitro activity of meropenem (MEM) against this pathogen. However, limited data currently exists assessing the comparative in vitro activity of MEM and MV. The purpose of this study was to compare the in vitro activity of MV and MEM against a large real-world sample of clinical isolates of PSA where both MV and MEM are routinely tested on all isolates. Methods All cultures from patient infections with PSA from May 2018 to February 2019 at Michigan Medicine were included. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined using TREK broth microdilution panels and isolates were considered susceptible to MV if the MIC was ≤4 mg/L and MEM if the MIC was ≤2 mg/L. Results A total of 2,967 isolates of PSA from clinical specimens were included. 80.5% of isolates were susceptible to MEM (MIC50 ≤1 mg/L and MIC90 8 mg/L, range ≤1 to >32 mg/L) at a breakpoint of ≤2 mg/L and 86.3% at a breakpoint of ≤4 mg/L; whereas 90.8% of isolates were susceptible to MV (MIC50 ≤1 mg/L and MIC90 4 mg/L, range ≤1 to >8 mg/L). Of those displaying MEM MIC >2 mg/L, 53% (n = 308) were susceptible to MV. Of those displaying MEM MIC >4 mg/L, 33.7% (n = 137) were susceptible to MV. Although the majority of MIC discordances in MEM-R/MV-S isolates were 1–2 doubling dilutions, 52 (38%) isolates had their meropenem MIC decreased ≥3 doubling dilutions by the addition of vaborbactam suggesting significant inhibitory activity (Table 1). Conclusion We found a surprising number of PSA isolates with discordant MV and MEM susceptibility at Michigan Medicine. Further exploration of mechanisms of meropenem resistance in these isolates is warranted. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.
