A Review of:
Knapp, P. B. (1966). The Monteith College library experiment. New York, NY: Scarecrow Press.
Objective — To create a college-level, four-year plan of library instruction in which assignments directly relate to students' course work. To develop tools to assess the plan's effectiveness in improving students' library skills and contributing to their overall academic success.
Design — Exploratory longitudinal cohort study employing pilot library assignments, interviews, and questionnaires.
Setting — Monteith College, one of eleven colleges at Wayne State University. Monteith was a small liberal arts college established in 1959 which stressed innovative teaching methods such as team-teaching, small-group discussion, and independent study (Worrell, 2002).
Subjects — Teaching faculty from all three college divisions–social sciences, natural sciences, and humanities–and students at Monteith College. Over the course of the study the college employed between 15 and 30 faculty members and enrolled 300 to700 students.
Methods — The project team consisted of project director Patricia Knapp, a project librarian, and a project research analyst. The team worked with the teaching faculty to develop course-related library assignments. Students completed a series of assignments over several semesters as part of their course requirements. The assignment series changed over the course of the project. Students who entered in the fall of 1959 or the spring of 1960 completed Sequence A consisting of six assignments. Students who entered in the fall of 1960 completed Sequence B, six assignments that were a mixture of original and revised assignments. Students who entered in the spring or fall of 1961 completed two revised library assignments.
In the summer of 1961, the investigators conducted the first of two small studies. They interviewed a random sample of 21 Monteith students about their experiences with the library and the required library assignments. The students also completed library performance tests such as choosing a subject heading to match a topic or deciphering an entry in a periodical index. This allowed the investigators to compare different measures of library competence and get feedback on the library assignments. In the summer of 1962, the investigators conducted a second small study of 40 Monteith students. The investigators evaluated the tests and other tools used in the first study.
The investigators then analyzed student and faculty data collected from Sequences A, B, and C, and from the two sample studies. Data included faculty interviews and feedback from student participants in the sample studies. The investigators also analyzed questionnaire data and the completed student assignments. They analyzed data using nonparametric, small sample statistics.
Main Results — Knapp's results helped shape the final plan of instruction and assessment presented in her book-length published report The Monteith College Library Experiment. It should be stated again that the project objective was not to implement a plan of instruction and assessment but simply to develop one.
One of the most important findings was that small sample studies can effectively test the reliability of library assignments. The sample studies allowed the team to "...define and measure library competence and to identify factors associated with its achievement" (Knapp, 1966, p. 17).
On a different level, the project offered insight into the faculty-librarian relationship. The investigators found that faculty resisted librarian input into their courses. They also discovered that the most effective group size for developing library assignments was a small group of two to four people, but this sized group was conducive to informal meetings in which key players, often the librarian, were left out. When faculty did not share in decision-making, project morale was low. The project team reorganized and reassigned roles, and the project ran more smoothly.
Knapp also learned about the faculty-student relationship. Knapp felt that some faculty simply passed on their knowledge to students rather than teaching students how to acquire it for themselves (Worrell, 2002). She found that student enthusiasm mirrored faculty enthusiasm about library assignments. Early in the project, faculty members presented library assignments to their students. The investigators discerned that both students and faculty were more amenable to the assignments when a librarian presented them and explained their purpose. Knapp (2000) agreed with Bruner who stated in The Process of Education that context is important when teaching any skill; students need to be able to relate the skills they are learning to the importance of why they are learning them (1960).
Finally, Knapp learned that students need more than to understand library organization (such as cataloging and classification systems). Students also need to understand "the organization of scholarly communication" to foster true library competence (Knapp, 1966, p. 81). Whereas library organization concerns itself with subject and form, the organization of scholarship "reflect[s] discipline, 'school,' concept, and method" (Knapp, 2000, p. 10).
Conclusion — The Monteith College Library Experiment ended in 1962 with a thoughtfully planned and tested program of library instruction. The final proposed program included 10 library assignments that were: of increasing complexity and aligned with the curriculum; intellectual with a focus on problem-solving; and feasible within the library's parameters. Students would complete one or more of the assignments each semester for four years as part of specific course requirements. Knapp noted the program could be adapted to any college curriculum. It would require six years for implementation and assessment. This includes an initial year for planning in which teaching faculty and librarians would collaboratively develop course-related library assignments, four years for student completion of assignments, and a sixth year for assessment.
Knapp outlined three levels of assessment. Investigators would assess the appropriateness of individual assignments through interviews and questionnaires collected from faculty and students, as well as completed student assignments. Knapp outlined two ways to assess library competence. First, Monteith faculty members would assess literature reviews in their subject specialties written by second semester seniors. Next, faculty from other Wayne State colleges would review papers from both Monteith and non-Monteith students to comparatively assess the students' use of sources. Knapp proposed that faculty judgment would be the most valuable measure of the relationship between library competence and overall academic success.
Knapp was prepared to implement her plan of instruction using all of her findings, but her proposal to move into phase two of the project was rejected by both the Office of Education, whose members cited economic reasons, and the Council on Library Resources, whose members were not satisfied that faculty were invested in the idea of curriculum-integrated library instruction (Worrell, 2002).

Annie Campbell Higgins was born and raised in the Chicago area. After receiving a BA in geography from Northwestern University, she entered the University of Chicago's Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations (NELC) in 1988 and graduated with a PhD in Islamic thought in 2001, having been awarded the prestigious Stuart Tave Award in the Humanities. During this period, she taught Arabic language and several Middle Eastern subjects at the University of Chicago, Loyola University, the University of Illinois in Chicago, the College of William and Mary, and the University of Florida. After graduation she held tenure-track positions in Arabic literature and language at Wayne State University and then at the College of Charleston. The key to Annie's academic career was her love of and commitment to the study of Arabic language and culture. Even before entering NELC, she had spent a year in Egypt (1985–86) studying Arabic and making a point of mixing with Egyptians, learning about their culture and speaking their dialect with enthusiasm.

The Orthopedic Surgery Interest Group Clinical Research Showcase took place on December 3, 2019 on the campus of Wayne State University School of Medicine as the first such student-run event of its kind since the school was established in 1868 as Detroit Medical College. The Clinical Research Showcase was developed by the student leadership of the Orthopedic Surgery Interest Group (Arif Musa, Emily Lau, Martin Weaver, and Collin Bennet) with the support of the Office of Medical Student Research Programs, which was established in 2017. Medical students were encouraged to submit abstracts for poster and podium presentation with the latter taking place in the Margherio Conference Center (Figure 1). The goals of the showcase were to promote student engagement in research, develop skills such as abstract writing and poster design, receive valuable feedback from judges, and foster inter-disciplinary collaboration. These goals were based on previous articles that have documented the impact of peer-led symposia as a valuable learning experience and means promote student involvement in research endeavors [1-3.] It was explicitly stated in the call for abstracts that medical student were welcome to submit abstracts of completed, ongoing, and planned research in any medical discipline. The research showcase was supported by the generous Office of Medical Student Research whom provided dinner and funding for several students’ posters to be printed.

Full textAbstract:
Marianne R. Sanua offers a balanced examination of a largely unexplored topic, the Jewish Greek subsystem that developed on American college campuses in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and thrived until the closure, merger, or reorientation of many of these organizations in the 1960s and early 1970s. One of the first studies to take the Greek system seriously and recognize it for the social and cultural force it was during its heyday in the early part of the twentieth century, Sanua's book provides readers with rare access to the aspirations, concerns, and ideals of a large segment—estimated between one fourth and one third—of the American Jewish college-going population of this time period.

In early 1981, the 73rd General Assembly of the State of Arkansas in regular session passed Senate Bill 482 without debate. Governor Frank White, immediately signed the bill, admitting that he hadn't read it, and it became state law as Act 590, the “Balanced Treatment for Creation-Science and Evolution-Science Act.” A suit on behalf of 23 plaintiffs was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) on May 27, 1981, and a trial before Federal Judge William Overton was scheduled for October and then postponed until December, 1981. The trial began on December 7, 1981, and it received national attention. The ACLU called well-known expert witnesses in both religion (Bruce Vawter, George Marsden, and Langdon Gilkey) and science (Francisco Ayala, G. Brent Dalrymple, Stephen Jay Gould, and Carl Sagan). The state's witnesses were creationists associated with the Geoscience Research Institute, Loma Linda University, California (Harold Coffin, Ariel Roth), and the Creation Research Society, Ann Arbor, Michigan (Wayne Friar, Margaret Helder, Donald Chittick, Robert Gentry). Its “star” witness, at least in the eyes of the press, was Chandra Wickramasinghe, University College of Wales. The trial did not involve any of the high profile creationists, such as Henry Morris or Duane Gish, from the Institute for Creation Research (ICR) in San Diego, even though it was disclosed that Wendall R. Bird, an attorney associated with (ICR), had written the act. Both sides called local educators. Judge Overton issued his ruling and an injunction permanently prohibiting enforcement of Act 590 on January 5, 1982. The state did not appeal his ruling.

E-mail: klar@fca.unesp.br* Scientific Researchist of CNPq. 1 ABSTRACT Broccoli (Brassica oleracea F, var. Italica) plants were transplanted to four lysimeters (116 cm x 116 cm and 150 cm depth), two of them maintained at 40 cm and two at 50 cm water table. Other two lysimeters, one for each level, received grass (Paspalum notatum, F.) to measure Reference Evapotranspiration (EToLY). Surrounded area received 2,500 m2 of broccoli plants with soil water potentials ( s) maintained higher than –30 kPa. The results allowed to conclude: - there were no statistical differences between the plant parameters from 40cm lysimeters and the surrounded area; - the Class A Pan, Radiation-FAO, Penman-FAO and Penman-Monteith Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) methods, in this order, had significant correlations to the data obtained from 40 cm water table level lysimeter; - the Kc (crop coefficient) broccoli values ranged from 0.88 to 1.42 for KcLY (Lysimeters), 1.24 to 2.14 for KcA (Class A Pan), 1.19 to 1.71 for KcPM (Penman-Monteith), 0.95 to1.42 for KcPF (Penman-FAO) and 0.82 to 1.49 for KcR (Radiation-FAO) from stages II to V; - the plant water using ranged from 4.09 to 6.25 mm/day for 40 cm water level, and 2.68 to 5.25 mm/day for 50 cm water level for the same stages, respectively. The lysimeters at 50 cm water level yielded 64,3% less inflorescences and 8.1% lower water using efficiency than the plants from 40 cm water level lysimeters.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: To review the comparative efficacy of metformin, sulfonylureas, and insulin in the treatment of patients with type II diabetes. DATA SOURCES: Articles were identified by a MEDLINE search of articles from 1966 to 1994, using the terms metformin, sulfonylurea, chlorpropamide, glipizide, glyburide, tolazamide, tolbutamide, and insulin, published in English, French, or German. Articles also were identified from bibliographies of pertinent articles. STUDY SELECTION: With the exception of articles dealing with the pharmacology of metformin, only randomized, active, controlled studies were selected for review. DATA EXTRACTION: Effects of metformin therapy on metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors were abstracted: weight, blood pressure, total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting and postprandial glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin. DATA SYNTHESIS: Metformin is an antihyperglycemic agent with a mean bioavailability of 50–60%. It is eliminated primarily by renal filtration and secretion and has a half-life of approximately 6 hours in patients with type II diabetes. Although the half-life of metformin is prolonged in patients with renal impairment, no specific dosage adjustments have been recommended. This agent has no effect in the absence of insulin. Metformin is as effective as the sulfonylureas in treating patients with type II diabetes and has a more prominent postprandial effect than the sulfonylureas or insulin. When combined with a sulfonylurea, metformin has been shown to exert antihyperglycemic effects in addition to the sulfonylurea with which it is combined. Metformin decreases absorption of vitamin B12 and folic acid, although reported cases of megaloblastic anemia are rare. Cimetidine decreases the elimination of metformin; therefore, the manufacturer reccommends a reduced metformin dosage when these agents are combined. The most frequently reported adverse effects of metformin are gastrointestinal in nature (diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and metallic taste, in decreasing order). Metformin has been used in Canada, Great Britain, and the rest of Europe for more than 30 years and was approved for use in the US in December 1994. CONCLUSIONS: Three trials comprise the Food and Drug Administration approval database (one foreign). Metformin will be most useful in managing patients with poorly controlled postprandial hyperglycemia, as its postprandial effect is much greater than that of the sulfonylureas. In contrast, sulfonylureas or insulin are more effective for managing patients with poorly controlled fasting hyperglycemia. Metformin should be considered a first-line agent, particularly in obese or hyperlipidemic patients.

Abstract Objectives: Previous studies have shown that endothelial function is abnormal in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). We sought to evaluate endothelial function (EF) by the non-invasive, operator-independent technique of peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) in patients with SCD. Study design: Thirty two subjects diagnosed with sickle cell disease were enrolled in the study. All underwent baseline evaluation of EF using the post-ischemia reactive hyperemia technique (Endo-PAT; Itamar, Israel). Endothelial function was quantitatively determined as the ratio between the arterial pulse wave amplitude following a 5 min arterial occlusion in the forearm to the pre-occlusion value. Results: Peripheral arterial tonometry assessment was well tolerated in our SCD population. The mean age was 29 years, range 15–50 years (M:F ratio: 13:19). Twenty eight (28) subjects had evaluable baseline PAT scores. The PAT score was abnormal (≤1.67) in 19/28 (68%) patients. The mean PAT scores were 1.33 ± 0.34 and 2.09 ± 0.34 (p=<0.001) in patients with abnormal vs normal PAT score respectively. More SS patients (12/16; 75%) had abnormal PAT scores at baseline compared to SC patients (7/12; 58%). The mean PAT scores were 1.52 ± 0.45 in the SS group versus 1.65 ± 0.38 in the SC group (P= 0.54). Hemoglobin (Hb) (8.5 ± 1.2 vs 11.8 ± 1.1 g/dL; p = <0.001); Lactate dehydrogenase (LD) (512 ± 215 vs 239 ± 100 Units/L; (p= < 0.001); absolute reticulocyte count (Retics) (364 ± 111 vs 187 ± 82 ×109/L; (p = <0.001); and sVCAM (1482 ± 588 vs 1052 ± 511 ng/mL (p= < 0.05); were statistically significant in the SS vs SC groups. Markers of hemolysis (Hb, LD and Retics) and endothelial inflammation (sVCAM) were not significantly different among patients with normal or abnormal PAT scores Conclusions: Abnormal EF is common in patients with sickle cell disease. EF is easily and reliably assessed by PAT in patients with sickle cell disease. In our SCD population, markers of hemolysis and inflammation were significantly different when analyzed by genotype but not by the recommended dichotomous PAT score of ≤1.67 (abnormal PAT) and > 1.67 (normal PAT). Given the substantial endothelial dysfunction observed in SCD patients, a treatment study using 6R-BH4, the eNOS cofactor for NO production, has begun to assess the potential for restoration of endothelial function.

Background: Time management skills increase satisfaction and balance between work and life. Additionally, managing time effectively reduces anxiety while also making achieving goals easier. Aim: The objectives of the study were to figure out the time management skills of medical students and their relationship with socio-demographic characteristics. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a medical college of Faisalabad.Study duration was 4 months (October 2021 to January 2022). A total of 250 students were enrolled in a study. The inclusion criteria included medical undergraduate students.A total of 50 students were enrolled from each class of MBBS through non-probability convenient sampling technique.A questionnaire titled “Time Management Assessment Questionnaire” containing 25 items developed by Wayne State University was used. A participant who had a score <29 was deemed to have poor time management abilities. A participant had average time management abilities if their overall score ranged from 30 to 44, and they had exceptional time management skills if their overall score ranged from 45 to 50. The IBM SPSS Statistics Version 25 was used for data analysis. Results: Most of the students were found to have inadequate time management skills. Class 2nd and 1st year MBBS students were found to have more inadequate time management skills followed by 4th, 3rd and final year students. Fairly well time management skills were shown by 1/3rd of participants and excellent time management skills were shown by less than 10% of participants. Conclusion: Over half percentage of medical students have poor time management abilities. Based on their socio-demographic characteristics, there are no differences in time management abilities among participants. Reading books and other publications on the subject, as well as attending related workshops and seminars, can help students improve their time management abilities.

The β-Lactamase Inhibitor QPX7728 Restores the Activity of β-Lactam Agents against Contemporary Extended-Spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-Producing and Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) Isolates, Including Isolates Producing Metallo-β-lactamases."

Abstract Background The β-lactam (BL)/ β-lactamase inhibitor (BLI) combinations approved in the last 10 years are active against most ESBL-producing Enterobacterales (ENT) and CRE isolates, but have limited activity against metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing ENT. We evaluated the activity of QPX7728 (QPX), a novel BLI with intravenous (IV) and oral availability, in combination with BL agents. We tested ENT isolates carrying the most common BL genes such as blaCTX-M, transferable AmpCs, oxacillinases, MBLs, and serine carbapenemases. Methods A total of 1,027 ENT isolates were susceptibility (S) tested by reference broth microdilution against aztreonam (ATM), cefepime (FEP), cefdinir (CDR), ceftibuten (CTB), ceftolozane (CT) and piperacillin (PT) with fixed 4 mg/L of tazobactam, biapenem (BPM), meropenem (MER), and tebipenem (TEB) combined with QPX at fixed 4 and 8 mg/L. All isolates were genetically characterized using whole genome sequencing and included 520 ESBL-producers and 507 CRE with 168 producing MBLs. Results BL agents tested alone had limited activity against this challenge set of isolates (MIC90, ≥32 mg/L); however, MIC90 values decreased ≥32-fold with the addition of QPX at the highest concentration tested (Table). Oral agents, CTB,CDR and TEB were tested with QPX at a fixed 4 mg/L and showed a 32- to 128-fold increase in potency (MIC90, 0.5-4 mg/L). ATM and FEP were tested with QPX at a fixed 4 and 8 mg/L and displayed MIC90 values ranging from 0.12-0.5 mg/L. ATM and FEP, tested with 8 mg/L of QPX, inhibited 99.8% of isolates at the breakpoint for the BL agent alone. BLI inhibitor combinations PT and CT displayed MIC90 values of 2 and 4 mg/L with the addition of 8 mg/L QPX. MER with QPX at a fixed 4 mg/L and 8 mg/L inhibited 99.8% and 100% of isolates, respectively. Conclusion The activity of all BLs evaluated was restored when combined with QPX tested against this challenging collection of 1,027 ENT isolates displaying various resistance mechanisms, including difficult to treat CRE isolates and MBL producers. Further development of QPX with various orally- and IV-available BL agents appears warranted.

Activity of Cefiderocol and Comparators against Gram-negative Isolates from US Patients Hospitalized with Pneumonia."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel siderophore-conjugated cephalosporin with broad activity against Gram-negative (GN) bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant isolates, and non-fermentative organisms. CFDC is approved by the FDA for complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI), hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia, and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia. In this study, we analyzed the susceptibility of CFDC and comparators against aerobic nonfastidious GN isolates collected from US patients hospitalized with pneumonia (PHP) in 2020 as a part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program. Methods A total of 1,877 Gram-negative isolates were consecutively collected from PHP in 27 US hospitals during 2020. Susceptibility (S) testing was performed using the CLSI broth microdilution method. CFDC was tested in iron-depleted Mueller-Hinton broth. CLSI or FDA (2021) breakpoints were used. Both CLSI and FDA (2021) interpretations are shown in the table. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE, nonsusceptible to imipenem and/or meropenem) and extensively drug resistant (XDR, susceptible to ≤ 2 drug classes) phenotype isolates were analyzed. Results The most common GN organism isolated from PHP was Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PSA, n=570), followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (n=239). The %S and MIC50/90 values of CFDC for both CLSI and FDA breakpoints and comparators are shown in the table for all organisms and resistant subsets. For Enterobacterales, all tested drugs had >99%S. The 18 CRE isolates had 94.4%S to CFDC and ceftazidime-avibactam. CFDC was the most active antimicrobial tested against PSA (99.3/98.4%S, CLSI/FDA) and XDR PSA (94.6/93.2%). CFDC had the highest %S against Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus species complex (ABC, 97.0/93.1%S, CLSI/FDA), XDR ABC (94.6/93.2%), and against Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (SM; 100.0/97.1%S, CLSI 2020/2022). Conclusion CFDC was highly active against US GN isolates from PHP, including CRE, XDR PSA and ABC, as well as SM. These in vitro results suggest that CFDC may be an important option for the treatment of PHP caused by GN organisms, particularly for pathogens which have few treatment options.

In Vitro Evaluation of Delafloxacin Activity Against Contemporary US Isolates from Community-Acquired Pneumonia and Community-Acquired Lower Respiratory Tract Infections: Results from the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program (2014-2020)."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Delafloxacin (DLX) is a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibacterial approved in the US for the treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). DLX is indicated to treat CABP caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPN), Haemophilus influenzae (HI), Haemophilus parainfluenzae (HP), methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), Escherichia coli (EC), Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PSA), Chlamydia pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and L. pneumophila. In this study, the in vitro susceptibilities of DLX and comparator quinolones were determined for clinical isolates from CAP and CA-lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs). Methods CAP and CA-LRTI isolates were consecutively collected at 67 US medical centers participating in the SENTRY Surveillance Program during 2014-2020. Sites submitted 1 isolate per patient per infection episode. Isolate identification was determined at each site and confirmed using standard biochemical or molecular methods at JMI Laboratories. Susceptibility testing was performed according to CLSI broth microdilution methodology. CLSI (2021) interpretive criteria were applied, FDA criteria were used for DLX. Results The susceptibility results for DLX, levofloxacin (LEV), moxifloxacin (MOX), and ciprofloxacin (CIP) for the indicated species are shown in the table. As MOX does not have CLSI breakpoints for EC, KPN, or PSA, CIP was tested for those species instead. DLX had the highest percent susceptibility against MSSA (91.8%). SPN and HI were >97% susceptible, and HP was >91% for all 3 drugs. KPN susceptibility ranged from 86.4% for LEV to 76.9% for DLX. Susceptibilities for EC and PSA were similar for the 3 drugs, EC varied from 59.8% for LEV to 57.0% for DLX, and PSA varied from 71.6% for CIP to 64.0% to LEV. Conclusion DLX had good activity against recent CAP and CA-LRTI isolates from US hospitals. DLX had the highest susceptibility of the quinolones tested against MSSA. Quinolone-resistant SPN and HI were uncommon. These in vitro results suggest that DLX may be a useful therapeutic option for CABP caused by Gram-positive, Gram-negative and fastidious pathogens.

Minocycline Activity Against Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus Species Complex, Burkholderia Cepacia Complex, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia from US Hospitals."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus species complex (ACB), Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (SM) are opportunistic non-fermentative organisms that can cause serious hospital-acquired infections in immunocompromised patients. These pathogens are inherently resistant to several common drug classes and often acquire other resistance mechanisms, making them difficult to treat. In this study, we analyzed the susceptibility of contemporary ACB, BCC, and SM isolates to minocycline (MIN), ceftazidime (TAZ), levofloxacin (LEV), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (T/S). Isolates were collected as a part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program from 2017-2020. Methods Isolates were collected from hospitalized patients in 33 US medical centers. Hospitals submitted 1 isolate per patient per infection episode that met local criteria for being the likely causative pathogen. Identification was performed by the submitting laboratory and confirmed by JMI Laboratories with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry or other standard methods as required. Isolates were tested for susceptibility (S) to MIN and comparators using the CLSI broth microdilution method. All infection types were included in the analysis. CLSI (2021) breakpoints were applied. Results The most common infection that ACB, BCC, and SM were isolated from was pneumonia in hospitalized patients (57.9%, 81.1%, and 73.9%, respectively) followed by skin and skin structure infections for ACB (21.5%) or bloodstream infections for BCC (13.5%) and SM (11.8%). The %S and MIC50/90 values of the 4 drugs tested against the organisms in this study are shown in the table. MIN had the highest %S for ACB (85.9%S) and SM (99.3%S). TAZ had the highest %S (87.8%S) for BCC, while MIN and T/S had similar %S at 82.4%S and 83.8%S, respectively. Conclusion MIN had >82% S for the pathogens in this study, which have limited therapeutic alternatives. Options are particularly limited for BCC and SM, which have only 7 drugs with CLSI breakpoints. These in vitro data suggest that MIN remains a useful treatment option for infections caused by ACB, BCC, or SM.

Abstract Background Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterobacterales isolates have increased and remain elevated in many US hospitals. Aminoglycoside (AMG) resistance often co-exist with resistance to other classes of antibiotics. A newer aminoglycoside, plazomicin, was evaluated against a large collection of MDR Enterobacterales clinical isolates from US hospitals. Methods A total of 456 MDR isolates (1/patient) were collected from 32 US medical centers located in 23 states in 2018-2020 and susceptibility tested by broth microdilution method at a central laboratory. MDR was defined as nonsusceptible (NS) to ≥3 antimicrobial classes and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) as susceptible (S) to ≤2 classes. Isolates resistant to aminoglycosides and/or broad-spectrum cephalosporins were screened for aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AME), 16S rRNA methyltransferases, and β-lactamases by whole genome sequencing. Results PLZ inhibited 93.0% of the MDR isolates (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L) and showed MIC values 8- to 16-fold lower than amikacin (AMK; MIC50/90, 4/16 mg/L; 93.2%S; Table). AMK S rates were 84.6% and 69.3% when EUCAST (≤8 mg/L) and USCAST (≤4 mg/L) breakpoints were applied, respectively. Among agents from other classes, S rates were 85.5% for meropenem, 88.4% for tigecycline, 49.3% for piperacillin-tazobactam, and 17.8% for cefepime; only the carbapenems and tigecycline were active against >50% of MDR isolates. PLZ retained activity against isolates NS to AMK (83.9%S), gentamicin (GEN; 89.3%S), and/or tobramycin (TOB; 92.4%S). PLZ showed markedly higher S rates than AMK against XDR (93.3% vs. 71.7%), AME producers (97.6% vs. 90.2%), and carbapenemase (CPE) producers (98.1% vs. 67.9%). PLZ was active against 99.0% of ESBL producers, while AMK S rates were 96.2%/87.0% as per the US FDA/EUCAST against these organisms. PLZ and AMK showed similar S rates when tested against GEN-NS isolates. GEN and TOB exhibited limited activity against MDR and all resistant subsets. Conclusion Despite co-resistance to aminoglycosides and other classes of antibiotics observed with MDR Enterobacterales isolates, PLZ remained highly active against these isolates including AME-, ESBL-, and/or CPE-producers that cause infections in US hospitals.

Comparative Activity of Ceftazidime-Avibactam, Imipenem-Relebactam and Meropenem-Vaborbactam Tested Against Carbapenem-Nonsusceptible Enterobacterales that Are Carbapenemase-Negative."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Most carbapenem-nonsusceptible Enterobacterales (CNSE) produce carbapenemases, but some isolates do not carry these enzymes. Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI), meropenem-vaborbactam (MBV), and imipenem-relebactam (IMR) have activity against CNSE isolates producing serine-carbapenemases, but these agents might have variable activity against isolates that do not produce these enzymes. We evaluated the activity of these agents against a collection of 170 carbapenemase-negative CNSE collected during 5 years in US hospitals. Methods Enterobacterales isolates (n=47,858) collected in US hospitals from 2016-2020 were susceptibility (S) tested by reference broth microdilution methods. Results were interpreted using CLSI 2020 breakpoints. CNSE displayed nonsusceptible (NS) MICs for imipenem or meropenem. CNSE isolates were screened for carbapenemase genes using whole genome sequencing. Results Among 685 (1.4% of the isolates) CNSE, 170 (24.8% of the CNSE) isolates did not produce carbapenemases. Most of these isolates were K. aerogenes (n=42), K. pneumoniae (32), and E. cloacae (32), but 13 other species also were carbapenemase negative. CAZ-AVI inhibited all carbapenemase-negative CNSE isolates (Figure). MBV and IMR inhibited 97.6% and 92.3% of the isolates. Amikacin (AMK) and tigecycline (TIG) inhibited 97.1% and 93.5%, while levofloxacin and meropenem (MEM) inhibited 63.5% and 64.7%. A total of 141 (82.9%) isolates were nonsusceptible (NS) to imipenem. When MEM NS isolates (n=60) were analysed separately, the S rates were lower for all agents except CAZ-AVI. CAZ-AVI inhibited all MEM NS carbapenemase-negative CNSE isolates. MBV and IMR inhibited 93.1% and 89.7% of these isolates, respectively. AMK and TIG inhibited 93.3% and 88.3%, respectively. Only 8.3% of the isolates were resistant to colistin. Conclusion CAZ-AVI displayed good activity against carbapenemase-negative CNSE isolates, including all MEM NS that displayed greater resistance rates against all comparator agents. High-risk patients with infections caused by CNSE have an increased mortality rate compared to isolates susceptible to these agents. Implementation of appropriate therapy for these isolates is critical.

Abstract Background Plazomicin (PLZ) is novel aminoglycoside (AMG) that was approved by the US FDA in June 2018 to treat complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI), including pyelonephritis. This agent is active against most isolates resistant to other AMGs. We evaluated PLZ activity against clinical isolates of Enterobacterales (ENT) from US hospitals. Methods 10,008 ENT isolates (1/patient) were collected from 35 US medical centers in 2016-2020 and susceptibility tested by the broth microdilution method at a central laboratory. PLZ breakpoints of ≤2/≥8 mg/L for susceptible [S]/resistant [R] (USFDA) were applied, and breakpoints established by the USFDA/CLSI, EUCAST and USCAST were applied to other AMGs for comparison. Isolates were mainly from cUTI (37.7%), bloodstream infection (24.9%), and pneumonia (20.3%). Results PLZ exhibited potent activity against ENT (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L), with S rates varying from 97.8% in 2016 to 95.8% in 2020 (96.8% overall). Against carbapenem-R ENT (CRE), S rates for PZL increased from 96.3% in 2016 to 100.0% in 2020 (Figure; 97.3% overall) and were markedly higher than amikacin (AMK; 75.2% overall), gentamicin (GEN; 48.7%), and tobramycin (TOB; 23.0%). The discrepancies between S rates for PLZ and other AMGs were greater when applying breakpoints generated using the same stringent contemporary methods applied to determine PLZ breakpoints. CRE S rates for AMK were 62.8% as per EUCAST and 52.2% as per USCAST. PLZ retained activity against GEN-non-S (NS; n=875; 90.6%S), TOB-NS (n=944; 92.7%S), and AMK-NS (n=60; 83.3%S) isolates. Among isolates from cUTI (n=3,774), 96.9% were PLZ-S, varying from 97.8% in 2017 to 95.8% in 2020. The ENT species most S to PLZ (lowest MIC values) were C. koseri (100.0%S), K. aerogenes (100.0%S), K. pneumoniae (99.8%S), and E. cloacae (99.7%S), which had MIC50/90 values of 0.25/0.5 mg/L, followed by K. oxytoca (MIC50/90, 0.5/0.5 mg/L; 99.9%S), E. coli (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L; 99.6%S), and C. freundii (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L; 100.0%S). Conclusion PLZ demonstrated potent activity against a large collection of contemporary ENT isolates from US hospitals with 4-fold lower MIC values than AMK. PLZ was markedly more active than AMK, GEN, or TOB against CRE and retained good activity against isolates NS to these AMGs. Disclosures Helio S.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Tebipenem (TBP) is an oral carbapenem in clinical development for treating complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), including pyelonephritis. This study investigates the epidemiology of E. coli (EC) causing UTI in U.S. patients and the activity of TBP and comparators against various subsets. Methods A total of 2,395 EC recovered from urine samples during the 2018-2020 STEWARD Surveillance Program were included. Isolates were collected from medical centers in all 9 US Census Regions and centrally tested by reference broth microdilution method. MIC interpretation was based on CLSI criteria. Isolates that met MIC criteria were subjected to genome sequencing, followed by screening of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes and epidemiology typing (MLST). Results A total of 16.1%, 15.4% and 14.6% of EC met the ESBL screening criteria in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. 269/360 (74.7%) carried blaCTX-M and 2/360 (0.6%) had blaSHV-12. blaCMY (33/360; 9.2%) was the most common cephalosporinase, followed by blaDHA (7/360; 1.9%). A CRE phenotype was noted in 1 isolate from New York, which carried blaKPC-2. Acquired genes were not detected in 56 strains. 50 ST types were noted in isolates that met the ESBL criteria screening, with the majority of isolates being ST131 (56.2%). 21 (6.7%) and 19 (6.0%) isolates belonged to ST38 and ST1193, respectively, followed by STs represented by 8 or less isolates. Among ST131, 56.5% carried blaCTX-M from group 1 and 35.6% had genes associated with group 9. Overall, TBP showed consistent MIC50 values throughout the subsets. ERT had activity (≥97.0% susceptible) against the various subsets; however, lower susceptibility rates (85.7-90.6%) were noted against isolates carrying plasmid AmpC. Other agents (ceftriaxone and cefazolin) had activity only against non-ESBL producers. Conclusion bla CTX-M comprised the majority of acquired genes detected among ESBL strains, which belonged mostly to ST131, emphasizing the expansion of this clone. TBP showed consistent activity against all subsets, regardless of resistance genotype or lineage. These data support the clinical development of TBP as a convenient oral treatment option for UTI caused by EC. Disclosures Rodrigo E.

In Vitro Analysis of AmpC β-lactamase Induction by Tebipenem in Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Tebipenem (TBP) is an orally bioavailable carbapenem in clinical development in the US for treating complicated urinary tract infections and acute pyelonephritis. TBP possesses broad-spectrum activity against isolates producing penicillinases, narrow- and extended-spectrum β-lactamases, and AmpC β-lactamases. Exposure to β-lactams has been shown to increase AmpC production and impact susceptibility to β-lactams. This study assessed the induction properties of TBP over AmpC production in Gram-negative organisms. Methods Eight Enterobacterales species and 1 P. aeruginosa isolate were selected for AmpC induction experiments for TBP, imipenem, ertapenem (ETP), and ceftazidime. Induction experiments were performed at 0.25, 1, 4, and 16x MIC. AmpC induction was detected by measuring the intensity of nitrocefin hydrolysis compared to baseline. Isolates where a ≥4x induction of AmpC was detected were tested for susceptibility by the CLSI reference broth microdilution method. A second set of 36 Enterobacterales and 32 P. aeruginosa isolates with proven overexpression of AmpC by qRT-PCR were tested for susceptibility as well. Results In general, TBP and imipenem increased production of AmpC against all Enterobacterales, except for C. koseri and S. marcescens (Table). In contrast, ETP and ceftazidime did not seem to affect production of AmpC among the Enterobacterales species tested. All agents but ETP increased the production of AmpC in P. aeruginosa. Overall, an MIC increase (i.e., >4-fold) to various β-lactam agents was not observed when tested against isolates that showed an increased production of AmpC after drug exposure. When tested against the second set of Enterobacterales that over-produced AmpC, TBP (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.25 mg/L) inhibited all isolates at ≤1 mg/L. TBP showed MIC50 and MIC90 results of 4 and 4 mg/L, respectively, against P. aeruginosa isolates that over-produced AmpC. Conclusion Among Enterobacterales, exposure to either TBP or imipenem, but not ETP or ceftazidime, often resulted in increased measurement of AmpC production. However, increased production of AmpC did not translate into increased MIC values. Finally, TBP showed potent activity against Enterobacterales with confirmed overproduction of AmpC.

Comparative Activity of Meropenem-Vaborbactam and Ceftazidime-Avibactam Against Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacter cloacae from Hospitals in Europe and United States."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Enterobacter spp. are part of the ESKAPE pathogens that have been recognized as a threat to human health. Among this genus, E. cloacae species complex (ECL) is the most common species that causes human infections. ECL can develop resistance to ß-lactams and other antimicrobial classes due to alterations in gene regulatory pathways. We evaluated the activity of meropenem-vaborbactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, and comparator agents against 235 multidrug resistant (MDR) ECL isolates collected in Europe and the US during 2017-2019. Methods A total of 2,459 ECL clinical isolates were collected in 40 European and 33 US hospitals. Isolates were susceptibility tested by reference broth microdilution methods and results were interpreted using CLSI, EUCAST, and US FDA breakpoints. MDR was defined as resistant to 3 or more drug classes when applying the CLSI breakpoints. Results MDR ECL were observed among 9.6% of the overall isolates. The MDR rate in Europe (12.0%; 155/1,295) was considerably higher than in the US (6.9%; 80/1,164). Meropenem-vaborbactam inhibited 94.5% and 97.4% of the MDR ECL isolates applying CLSI and EUCAST breakpoints, respectively (Table). Meropenem inhibited 77.9%/85.5% of the isolates (CLSI/EUCAST breakpoints). Cefepime inhibited only 26.0%/16.2% of the MDR ECL isolates while piperacillin-tazobactam inhibited only 13.2%/6.4%. Ceftazidime-avibactam inhibited 93.6% of the MDR ECL isolates. Amikacin and tigecycline were the most active non-beta-lactam comparators, inhibiting 91.9% and 80.0% of these isolates using CLSI/US FDA breakpoints. A total of 93.1% of the isolates were intermediate to colistin applying CLSI breakpoints or susceptible using the EUCAST criteria. Meropenem-vaborbactam inhibited 73.5% and 87.8% of the MDR ECL isolates nonsusceptible to meropenem and cefepime, the main therapeutic option against ECL isolates. Ceftazidime-avibactam inhibited 73.5% of these isolates. Conclusion In a global surveillance, ECL is the second most common Enterobacterales species/species complex displaying MDR and carbapenem-resistance phenotypes, behind only Klebsiella pneumoniae. Meropenem-vaborbactam and ceftazidime-avibactam can be important options to treat infections caused by MDR ECL.

Occurrence of β-Lactamases among Enterobacterales Isolated from United States Hospitals: Results of the INFORM Surveillance Program for Ceftazidime-Avibactam."

Abstract Background Carbapenems are broadly used for the treatment of ESBL-producing Enterobacterales isolates. The use of these agents led to an increase of carbapenem resistance among Enterobacterales. Monitoring isolates that carry β-lactamases is important to understand their prevalence and susceptibility to clinically available antimicrobial agents. We evaluated the prevalence of β-lactamases and the activity of antimicrobial agents against 1,209 isolates collected in 69 US hospitals. Methods A total of 9,686 Enterobacterales isolates collected during 2019 were susceptibility (S) tested by reference broth microdilution methods. Isolates submitted to whole genome sequencing were: (1) Escherichia coli (EC) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN; n=817) displaying MIC values ≥2 mg/L for at least 2 of the following β-lactams: ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, aztreonam, or cefepime; (2) Enterobacter cloacae (ECL) and Citrobacter spp. (CIT; n=351) displaying MIC values ≥16 mg/L for ceftazidime and/or ≥2 mg/L for cefepime; and (3) Enterobacterales (n=118) displaying elevated carbapenem (meropenem and/or imipenem) MIC results at >1 mg/L. Results A total of 723 isolates harbored ESBL genes but did not carry carbapenemases. The most common ESBL gene was blaCTX-M-15 (n=516), followed by blaCTX-M-14 (n=153). Most of these isolates were EC (278/147 for blaCTX-M-15/blaCTX-M-14), but 220 KPN harbored blaCTX-M-15. A total of 302 EC and KPN isolates carried blaOXA-1. Among ECL and CIT, blaCTX-M-15 and SHV genes encoding ESBLs were noted among 18 and 18 isolates. Carbapenemase genes were noted among 77 isolates, including 65 blaKPC, 3 blaSME, 6 blaOXA-48-like, and 3 blaNDM. Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) was the only agent active against all ESBL-producers that did not carry carbapenemases (Table). CAZ-AVI was active against 90.9% of the isolates producing carbapenemases. Isolates resistant to this combination included 3 NDM-producers and 1 isolate harboring blaKPC-31. Conclusion Enterobacterales isolates carrying ESBLs, mainly blaCTX-M-15, were very prevalent in this collection of US isolates. CAZ-AVI was very active against isolates tested, including isolates producing carbapenemases that displayed resistance to many comparator agents.

Update on the In Vitro Activity of Ceftaroline against Staphylococcus aureus from United States (US) Medical Centers Stratified by Infection Type (2018-2020)." Open Forum Infectious Diseases 8, Supplement_1 (November 1, 2021): S707—S708. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofab466.1428.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Ceftaroline was initially approved by the US FDA in 2010 to treat skin and skin structure infection (SSSI) and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). FDA approval was extended in 2015 to treat patients with SSSI and CABP who developed bacteremia. Moreover, ceftaroline has also been used off-label to treat other infection types. We evaluated the in vitro activity of ceftaroline against S. aureus isolated in US medical centers in 2018-2020. Methods A total of 9,268 S. aureus isolates were consecutively collected from 33 US medical centers in 2018-2020 and susceptibility tested by broth microdilution method against ceftaroline and comparators. Results were stratified by infection type and resistance profile. Results Ceftaroline (MIC50/90, 0.25/1 mg/L) susceptibility (S) ranged from 98.5% (SSSI) to 95.4% (pneumonia; 97.2% overall [Table]). Ceftaroline retained potent activity and broad spectrum against methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA; 41.9% of isolates), with S rates varying from 96.3% (SSSI) to 89.2% (pneumonia; 93.4% overall). Overall S rate to erythromycin (ERY), levofloxacin (LEV), tetracycline (TET), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) were 44.0%, 67.9%, 94.1%, and 97.5%, respectively. Ceftaroline retained good activity against S. aureus resistant to ERY (94.8%S), LEV (91.4%S), TET (92.3%S), and/or TMP-SMX (98.7%S). Among the resistant subsets, ceftaroline S rates were generally highest among isolates from SSSI (93.1-100.0%), followed by other infections (81.8-100.0%), bloodstream infections (BSI; 89.4-96.2%), and pneumonia (86.6-98.1%); overall susceptibility was highest among TMP-SMX-R isolates (98.7%), followed by ERY-R (94.8%), MRSA (93.4%), TET-R (92.3%), and LEV-R (91.4%) isolates. Dalbavancin (MIC90, 0.03 mg/L), teicoplanin (MIC90, 0.5 mg/L), and vancomycin (MIC90, 1 mg/L) exhibited complete activity (100.0%S), whereas daptomycin (MIC90, 0.5 mg/L) and linezolid (MIC90, 2 mg/L) were active against >99.9% of isolates. Conclusion Ceftaroline remained very active against contemporary (2018-2020) S. aureus from US medical centers, independent of infection type. Ceftaroline retained good activity against MRSA and isolates resistant to ERY, LEV, TET, and/or TMP-SMX. Disclosures Helio S.

Tebipenem In vitro Activity Against a Collection of Pathogens Responsible for Urinary Tract Infections in the US."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Enterobacterales (ENT)—especially Escherichia coli (EC), Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN), and Proteus mirabilis (PM)—are widely implicated in urinary tract infections (UTIs). Many oral agents are used to manage UTIs, but their usefulness has been compromised by the increased prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) and presence of co-resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) and quinolones. Tebipenem (TBP) is an oral carbapenem in clinical development for treating complicated UTIs and acute pyelonephritis. This study assessed the in vitro activity of TBP and comparator agents against ENT responsible for UTIs in the US during 2019-2020. Methods A total of 3,576 ENT recovered from urine samples during the 2019-2020 STEWARD Surveillance Program were included in the study. Isolates were collected from medical centers in all 9 US Census Regions and were centrally tested for susceptibility by reference broth microdilution method. MIC interpretation was performed based on CLSI criteria. Results EC comprised 65.6% of all ENT pathogens, followed by KPN (14.3%), PM (6.6%), and other species (13.7%). TBP (MIC90, 0.015-0.06 mg/L) and ertapenem (ERT; MIC90, 0.03 mg/L) showed similar MIC90 results against ENT, EC, and KPN (Table). Ceftazidime (CAZ; MIC90, 8-16 mg/L) had elevated MIC90 values and suboptimal susceptibility results (86.1-89.3%) against ENT, EC, and KPN. The oral agents, cefuroxime, amoxicillin-clavulanate, TMP-SMX, and levofloxacin showed susceptibility rates ranging from 63.1% to 87.1% against ENT, EC, and KPN. TBP (MIC50/90, 0.12/0.12 mg/L) inhibited all PM at ≤0.25 mg/L. PM isolates were susceptible to ERT (100.0%), CAZ (98.7%), cefuroxime (94.4%), and amoxicillin/clavulanate (96.6%), whereas susceptibility rates of 71.8-76.8% were noted for TMP-SMX and levofloxacin. Conclusion TBP displayed potent activity against ENT UTI pathogens recovered from patients in the US. TBP demonstrated in vitro activity against these UTI pathogens similar to that of ERT. In addition, these data showed compromised activity of intravenous and oral agents used for treating UTI. This data supports the development of tebipenem as an oral option for management of UTI in the US. Disclosures Rodrigo E.

Abstract Background Meropenem-vaborbactam (MVB) is an important addition to the armamentarium to treat infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CREs). Carbapenemase-negative (CN) CRE isolates have been reported, but the activity of newer agents against these isolates is still not well understood. We evaluated the activity of MVB against CN-CRE collected during 6 years of surveillance in US hospitals. Methods A total of 27,968 Enterobacterales isolates collected in US hospitals from 2014-2019 were susceptibility tested by reference broth microdilution methods. Results were interpreted using CLSI 2020 breakpoints. CRE isolates were submitted to PCR/sequencing (2014-2015) or whole genome sequencing (WGS; 2016-2019) for characterization of carbapenemase genes. Isolates from 2016-2019 were evaluated for other beta-lactam resistance mechanisms. Results Among 357 (1.3% of all isolates) CRE isolates identified during 6 years of surveillance, 48 (13.4% of the CRE) isolates did not produce known carbapenemases. The CN-CRE collection included 7 bacterial, species, or species complex. The top four most common species in the collection were K. pneumoniae (16 isolates) followed by E. cloacae (9), E. coli (8), and K. aerogenes (8). MVB was the most active agent tested against these isolates, inhibiting 47/48 (97.9%) of the isolates tested. The only isolate displaying a resistant MIC for MVB was a P. mirabilis (MIC, 16 mg/L) collected in 2015. Meropenem alone inhibited only 2.1% of the isolates. Other beta-lactams inhibited 4.2 to 14.6% of the isolates. Among non-beta-lactam comparator agents, tigecycline and amikacin inhibited 93.8 and 91.7% of the isolates, respectively, when applying CLSI or US FDA breakpoints. A total of 89.6% of the isolates had intermediate colistin MIC values. Among the 27 isolates collected from 2016-2019 that were submitted to WGS, 15 harbored CTX-M encoding genes. K. aerogenes and E. cloacae isolates (3 each) overexpressed AmpC. OmpC/K36 was disrupted in 20 isolates and OmpF/K35 was disrupted in 8 isolates. Conclusion MVB displayed good activity against CN-CRE isolates from US hospitals. This combination agent could be a good option to treat infections caused by these isolates.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Rezafungin (RZF) is a new echinocandin (ECH) with a long half-life and front-loaded drug exposure that allow for once-weekly intravenous administration. RZF is under Phase 3 development for the treatment of candidemia and invasive candidiasis and the prevention of invasive fungal disease caused by Candida, Aspergillus, and Pneumocystis spp. in blood and marrow transplant recipients. We evaluated the activity of RZF and comparators against invasive fungal isolates from the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program. Methods A total of 1,427 Candida spp., 38 Cryptococcus neoformans (CNEO), 186 Aspergillus fumigatus (AFM), and 28 Aspergillus section Flavi (AFL) collected from 24 countries in 2019-2020 were tested. CLSI antifungal broth microdilution assays were performed according to standard method (M27, M38) with the exception that panels were made by dispensing 10 µL of a 20x drug stock solution into panels that contained 90 µL of RPMI and mixing. CLSI criteria were applied (M59, M60, M61). Results RZF demonstrated potent activity against C. albicans (CA; MIC50/90, 0.03/0.06 mg/L), C. tropicalis (CT; MIC50/90, 0.03/0.06 mg/L), C. glabrata (CG; MIC50/90, 0.06/0.06 mg/L), C. krusei (CK; MIC50/90, 0.03/0.03 mg/L), and C. dubliniensis (MIC50/90, 0.06/0.12 mg/L). RZF inhibited 99.6% of C. parapsilosis (CP; MIC50/90,1/2 mg/L) at ≤2 mg/L. RZF activity was similar to the other ECH against these 6 Candida spp. All CA, CT, and CK isolates as well as the majority of CG (96.2-97.9%) and CP (86.2-100%) isolates were susceptible (S) to comparator ECHs. Fluconazole resistance was detected among 0.5%, 4.5%, 10.5%, and 1.2% of CA, CG, CP, and CT, respectively. The azoles were active against CNEO, but all ECHs displayed limited activity against CNEO. ECHs were active against AFM (MEC90 range, 0.015-0.06 mg/L) and AFL (MEC90 range, 0.015-0.03 mg/L). RZF activity was similar to that of the other ECHs. All but 16 (8.6%) AFM isolates were S to voriconazole, and 100% of AFL were wild-type to mould-active azoles. Conclusion RZF and other ECHs displayed similar activity against Candida and Aspergillus spp. isolates from invasive fungal infections. These in vitro results support the development of RZF for the treatment and prevention of invasive fungal disease. Disclosures Cecilia G.

In vitro Activity of Exebacase (CF-301) against Staphylococcus aureus Causing Bacteremia in the United States, Including Multidrug-resistant Subsets." Open Forum Infectious Diseases 8, Supplement_1 (November 1, 2021): S621—S622. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofab466.1253.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Exebacase (CF-301) is a lysin (peptidoglycan hydrolase enzyme) with anti-staphylococcal activity. CF-301 is in Phase 3 of clinical development for the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) bacteremia (SAB), including right-sided infective endocarditis (IE), used in addition to standard-of-care antibiotics. CF-301 in vitro activity was determined against SA isolates reflecting the Phase 3 target patient SAB population, including IE. Methods 666 SA recovered from blood (3% from known IE) of patients hospitalized in 29 centers located in 9 Census regions were included as part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program for 2020. Identification was confirmed by MALDI-TOF. Susceptibility to 12 comparators used reference broth microdilution (BMD), whereas CF-301 used a modified BMD method with cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth (CAMHB) supplemented with 25% horse serum and 0.5 mM DL-dithiothreitol according to CLSI. MIC interpretation for comparator agents used CLSI criteria, including determination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype (non-susceptible to ≥3 classes of antibiotics). Results Against all SA tested CF-301 had an MIC range of 0.06-1 mg/L, with MIC50, MIC90 and modal MIC values of 0.5 mg/L. CF-301 MIC results (MIC50/90, 0.5/0.5 mg/L) against methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) and -resistant (MRSA; 38.6% of all SA) SA were identical. Many comparators had activity against MSSA; among drugs indicated for treating SAB caused by MRSA, daptomycin and vancomycin were active (100% susceptible) against all isolates. A total of 62.3% of MRSA isolates were categorized as MDR, and CF-301 showed equal MIC50 and MIC90 results against MDR (MIC50/90, 0.5/0.5 mg/L) and non-MDR (MIC50/90, 0.5/0.5 mg/L) populations. Daptomycin and vancomycin were active (100% susceptible) against MDR MRSA isolates. Conclusion CF-301 was uniformly active against contemporary SA isolates responsible for bloodstream infections in the US in 2020. CF-301 activity was consistent, regardless of resistance phenotype (MSSA, MRSA, including MDR isolates). Surveillance data presented here further support the clinical development of CF-301 as a promising option for treatment of SAB, including those caused by MDR MRSA isolates. Disclosures Rodrigo E.

Antimicrobial Activity of Ceftibuten-Avibactam against Clinical Isolates of Enterobacterales Producing Clinically Relevant Beta-Lactamases."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Ceftibuten (CTB) is an oral cephalosporin active against Enterobacterales approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 1995. Avibactam (AVI) is a potent inhibitor of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), serine carbapenemases and AmpC that can be administered orally. We evaluated the in vitro activity of CTB-AVI against molecularly characterized Enterobacterales that produced the most common β-lactamases (BLs) and assessed the AVI concentration to be combined with CTB for susceptibility testing. Methods The organism collection (n=71) included Enterobacterales producing ESBLs (28; CTX-M, SHV, and TEM), KPCs (8), MBLs (7; NDM, VIM, and IMP), AmpC derepressed (3), plasmid AmpC (3), OXA-48-like (2), and SME (2) as well as isolates with porin alterations (5) and wild-type organisms (13). Resistance mechanisms were evaluated by whole genome sequencing. MIC values were determined by broth microdilution of CTB with fixed concentrations (2, 4, and 8 mg/L) and ratios (1:1 and 2:1) of AVI. Results The fixed AVI concentration of 4 mg/L best separated CTB-AVI-susceptible from CTB-AVI-resistant isolates. CTB-AVI (fixed 4 mg/L) was very active against Enterobacterales producing ESBL (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.12 mg/L), including CTX-M-15 (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.12 mg/L), KPC (MIC50, 0.06 mg/L), derepressed AmpC (MIC range, 1-2 mg/L), plasmidic AmpC (MIC range, 0.12-0.5 mg/L), SME (MIC range, 0.06-0.12 mg/L), and OXA-48-like (MIC range, 0.5-4 mg/L), but it showed limited activity against MBL-producers (MIC50, >128 mg/L) and isolates with porin alterations (MIC50, 32 mg/L; Table). CTB was very active against SME-producers (MIC, 0.12-0.25 mg/L) and showed some activity against KPC-producers (MIC50, 4 mg/L; MIC range, 2-16 mg/L) and ESBL-producers (MIC50/90, 4/64 mg/L), but it exhibited very limited activity against MBL, AmpC derepressed, plasmidic AmpC, and OXA-48-like producers (MIC50 values of 128 to >128 mg/L). Conclusion CTB-AVI showed potent in vitro activity against Enterobacterales producing most clinically relevant BLs, including ESBLs, KPCs, OXA-48-like, and AmpC, for which limited oral treatment options are available. These in vitro results support further clinical development of CTB-AVI. Disclosures Helio S.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Ceftaroline (CPT) is a broad-spectrum cephalosporin with activity against S. pneumoniae (SPN), including multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. CPT fosamil is approved for clinical use in the United States (US) to treat community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). We evaluated the activity of CPT against clinical isolates of ceftriaxone-non-susceptible (CRO-NS) SPN from US medical centers. Methods 21,750 SPN isolates were consecutively collected (1 per patient) from 201 medical centers in 2008-2020 and tested for susceptibility (S) to CPT and comparator agents using CLSI broth microdilution methods. Among these isolates, 1,419 (6.5%) were CRO-NS (CRO MIC ≥2 mg/L). Other resistant subgroups analyzed included MDR (NS to ≥3 classes of agents; n=4,454) and extensively drug resistant (XDR; NS to ≥5 classes; n=1,708) isolates. Results CRO susceptibility varied from 86.9% in 2009 to 98.8% in 2019 and increased from 89.0% in the 2008-2011 period to 98.1% in the 2018-2020 period. CPT was active against 99.9% of CRO-NS SPN (MIC50/90, 0.25/0.25 mg/L); only 1 isolate had a CPT MIC ≥0.5 mg/L. The CPT-NS isolate exhibited CPT and CRO MIC values of 1 and 8 mg/L, respectively, and had multiple substitutions in the penicillin binding proteins (PBP), mainly PBP2x, when compared with reference sequences. Also, it showed 31 amino acid alterations in MurM. The most active comparator agents against CRO-NS SPN were linezolid (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L; 100.0%S), levofloxacin (MIC50/90, 1/1 mg/L; 98.1%S), tigecycline (MIC50/90, ≤0.03/0.06 mg/L; 95.5%S), and vancomycin (MIC50/90, ≤1/≤1 mg/L; 100.0%S). Overall, 20.5% of isolates were MDR and 7.9% were XDR. MDR and XDR rates decreased from 24.4% and 13.5% in 2008-2011 to 16.8% and 2.4% in 2018-2020, respectively. CPT retained potent activity against MDR (MIC50/90, 0.12/0.25 mg/L; 99.9%S) and XDR (MIC50/90, 0.25/0.25 mg/L; 100.0%S) isolates; whereas CRO exhibited limited activity against both MDR (MIC50/90, 1/2 mg/L; 68.9%S) and XDR (MIC50/90, 2/2 mg/L; 26.7%S) isolate subsets. Among CRO-NS isolates, 97.7% were MDR and 88.2% were XDR. Conclusion CPT demonstrated potent and consistent activity over time (2008-2020) against a large collection of SPN from US medical centers, including CRO-NS, MDR, and XDR isolates.

In Vitro Activity of Cefiderocol and Comparator Agents against Molecularly characterized Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales Clinical Isolates Causing Infection in United States Hospitals (2020)."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) represents a new addition to the antimicrobial armamentarium with broad activity against Gram-negative bacteria (GNB). CFDC remains stable to hydrolysis in the presence of serine β-lactamases (ESBLs, KPC and OXA-type carbapenemases) and metallo-β-lactamases. The CFDC and comparator activities were analyzed against Enterobacterales (ENT), including molecularly characterized carbapenem-resistant isolates (CRE), as a part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program in the USA. Methods 4,053 ENT were collected from 31 sites in 2020. Susceptibility testing was performed by broth microdilution and CFDC testing used iron-depleted media. CLSI/FDA breakpoints were used. Isolates displaying MIC values ≥4 µg/mL for imipenem (excluded for P. mirabilis, P. penneri and indole-positive Proteus) or meropenem (MER) were subjected to genome sequencing and screening of β-lactamase genes. Results A total of 36 (0.9%) CRE were detected, and represented mostly by isolates carrying blaKPC (75.0%; 27/36; Table). A small number of ENT (11.1%; 4/36) carried other carbapenemase genes (1 each of blaNDM-1, blaNDM-5, blaOXA-232, and blaSME-2), whereas 13.9% (5/36) of isolates did not carry any known carbapenemases. CFDC (99.8% susceptible [S]), imipenem-relebactam (IMR; 99.7-99.9%S), meropenem-vaborbactam (MEV; 99.9-100%S), ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA; 99.9-100%S), and MER (99.1-99.9%S) were active against all ENT and the non-CRE subset. CFDC (MIC50/90, 0.5/4 µg/mL; 97.2%S) and CZA (MIC50/90, 1/8 µg/mL; 94.4%S) were the most active agents against CRE, whereas CFDC, IMR, MEV and CZA were active (100%S) against the KPC subset. Finally, CFDC (MIC, 0.5-4 µg/mL; 100%S) was the most active agent against ENT carrying genes other than blaKPC, whereas CZA (1-8 µg/mL; 100%S) was most active against CRE with no known carbapenemases, followed by CFDC (0.5-8 µg/mL; 80.0%S). Conclusion The CFDC activity was consistent, regardless of phenotypes or genotypes, including against isolates carrying genes other than blaKPC, where approved β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations showed limited activity. These data confirm CFDC as an important option for the treatment of infections caused by ENT and resistant subsets. Table Disclosures Rodrigo E.

Abstract Background Aztreonam (ATM) is a monobactam stable to hydrolysis by metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). Avibactam (AVI) is a non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor that inhibits serine β-lactamases (BLs) such as ESBLs, KPCs, AmpC, and some OXAs. ATM-AVI is under clinical development for the treatment of serious infections caused by gram-negative bacteria (GNB), including MBL-producers. We evaluated ATM-AVI activity against GNB causing bloodstream (BSI) and complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI). Methods 10,103 GNB isolates (5,314 from BSI and 4,789 from cUTI) were consecutively collected (1/patient) from 66 medical centers located in Western Europe (W-EU; n=5,238; 25 centers in 10 countries), Eastern Europe (E-EU; n=1,729; 13 centers in 10 countries), the Asia-Pacific region (APAC; n=1,817; 17 centers in 9 countries), and Latin America (LATAM; n=1,319; 11 centers in 7 countries) in 2019 (n=5,030) and 2020 (n=5,073). Susceptibility (S) testing was performed by reference broth microdilution methods in a central laboratory. Results Overall, 99.9% of Enterobacterales (ENT; MIC50/90, ≤0.03/0.12 mg/L), including 99.7% of carbapenem-resistant ENT (CRE; MIC50/90, 0.25/0.5 mg/L), were inhibited at an ATM-AVI MIC of ≤8 mg/L (Table). CRE rates among BSI/cUTI isolates were 2.3%/0.6% in W-EU, 9.5%/6.1% in E-EU, 3.3%/2.8% in APAC, and 8.1%/5.2% in LATAM (4.2%/2.7% overall). ATM-AVI was very active against MDR (MIC50/90, 0.06/0.5 mg/L; 99.6% inhibited at ≤8 mg/L) and XDR (MIC50/90, 0.25/0.5 mg/L; highest MIC, 2 mg/L) ENT. Among P. aeruginosa, the percentage of isolates inhibited at ≤8 mg/L of ATM-AVI (78.3%) was similar to the S rates for piperacillin-tazobactam (78.8%), meropenem (79.1%), and ceftazidime (80.6%). Among S. maltophilia isolates, 100.0% were inhibited at ≤8mg/L of ATM-AVI and 95.4% were S to cotrimoxazole. ATM-AVI was highly active against Aeromonas spp. (highest MIC, 0.25 mg/L) and showed good activity against B. cepacia (MIC50/90, 4/16 mg/L). Conclusion ATM-AVI exhibited potent and consistent activity against ENT (including CRE, MDR, and XDR isolates) from W-EU, E-EU, APAC, and LATAM. Our results support clinical development of ATM-AVI to treat BSI and cUTI caused by ENT, P. aeruginosa, S. maltophilia, B. cepacia and Aeromonas spp. Table Disclosures Helio S.

Abstract Background The IDEA Program monitors the in vitro activity of dalbavancin and comparators against Gram-positive (GP) bacteria causing bloodstream infections (BSIs) and other infections in the United States (US) and Europe (EU). We evaluated the BSI results in 2018-2020. Methods 8,643 organisms were consecutively collected (1/patient) from 74 medical centers located in the US (n=4,544; 33 centers), western EU (W-EU; n=3,330; 28 centers from 10 nations: Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom), and eastern EU (E-EU; n=769; 13 centers from 10 nations: Belarus, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovenia, and Turkey). Organisms were susceptibility tested by reference broth microdilution methods in a central laboratory. Results Overall, the most common GP organisms were S. aureus (SA; 45.2%), E. faecalis (EF; 12.2%), S. epidermidis (SEP; 8.9%), β-hemolytic streptococci (BHS; 8.5%), and E. faecium (EFM; 7.6%), but rank order varied markedly by geographic region. The top 3 GP organisms were SA, EF, and BHS in the US; SA, EF, and EFM in W-EU; and SA, S. pneumoniae, and BHS in E-EU. Dalbavancin was highly active against methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) and -resistant (MRSA) SA, with an MIC90 of 0.03 mg/L in all 3 regions (Table). Among SA, MRSA rates were higher in the US (41.3%) than W-EU (21.5%) or E-EU (27.3%), and ceftaroline susceptibility ranged from 95.4% (W-EU) to 96.6% (US). Vancomycin (VAN) susceptibility varied from 97.3% (E-EU) to 98.3% (W-EU) among EF (97.5% in US), and dalbavancin was active against all VAN-S EF (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.06 mg/L; 100.0%S). Among SEP, all isolates were inhibited at ≤0.25 mg/L of dalbavancin (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.06 mg/L) and oxacillin resistance ranged from 66.9% in W-EU to 86.5% in E-EU (73.2% in US). BHS exhibited low dalbavancin MIC values (MIC50/90, 0.015/0.03 mg/L) and high S rates for its comparators. Among EFM, VAN-S rates varied from 36.6% in the US to 61.6% in E-EU and 76.1% in W-EU, and dalbavancin inhibited all VAN-S EFM at ≤0.25 mg/L (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.12 mg/L). Conclusion Dalbavancin exhibited potent activity and broad spectrum against a large collection of contemporary GP bacteria recovered from patients with BSI in US and EU. Disclosures Helio S.

Abstract Background E. cloacae species complex (ECL), S. marcescens (SM), C. freundii species complex (CF), and P. aeruginosa (PSA) are common pathogens in a variety of clinical infections. These organisms can overexpress the chromosomal AmpC that encodes resistance to several β-lactams. We evaluated the activity of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) and comparators against these organisms. Methods 17,650 isolates, including 4,400 ECL, 2,074 SM, 1,644 CF, and 9,532 PSA, were consecutively collected from 88 US medical centers in 2016-2020. Among these isolates, 3,127 were ceftazidime-nonsusceptible (CAZ-NS; MIC ≥8 mg/L for Enterobacterales [ENT] and ≥16 mg/L for PSA) and considered probable AmpC hyperproducers. Isolates were susceptibility tested by broth microdilution method. Results Susceptibility to CAZ ranged from 73.6% (ECL) to 97.5% (SM; Table). Overall, 99.8% of ENT (99.7-99.9%) and 97.1% of PSA were CAZ-AVI-S; whereas 84.3% (79.0-97.7%) of ENT and 97.4% of PSA were ceftolozane-tazobactam (C-T)-S, 83.0% (78.5-94.8%) of ENT and 80.0% of PSA were piperacillin-tazobactam (PIP-TAZ)-S, and 98.4% (98.3-98.7%) of ENT and 79.5% of PSA were meropenem (MEM)-S. CAZ-AVI retained potent activity and broad spectrum against CAZ-NS ENT (n=1,629; MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L; 99.0%S overall) and CAZ-AVI was more active than MEM (MIC50/90, 0.06/0.5 mg/L; 93.1%S) against these organisms. C-T (MIC50/90, 8/ >16 mg/L; 23.8%S) and PIP-TAZ (MIC50/90, 64/ >64 mg/L; 21.8%S) exhibited limited activity against CAZ-NS ENT. Among comparator agents, only amikacin (99.0%S), tigecycline (95.6%S), and imipenem (92.1%S) showed good activity against CAZ-NS ENT. Also, CAZ-AVI retained activity against 86.7% of ENT isolates that were NS to CAZ and MEM (n=113). CAZ-AVI (MIC50/90, 2/4 mg/L; 97.1%S) and C-T (MIC50/90, 0.5/2 mg/L; 97.4%S) were the most active compounds tested against PSA and both retained activity against CAZ-NS PSA. CAZ-AVI (MIC50/90, 4/16 mg/L; 81.8%S) and C-T (MIC50/90, 2/8 mg/L; 83.9%S) activity against CAZ-NS PSA was comparable to tobramycin (MIC50/90, 1/ >8 mg/L; 82.2%S). Conclusion CAZ-AVI demonstrated potent activity and broad spectrum against AmpC hyperproducer organisms, such as ECL, SM, CF, and PSA, from US hospitals and remained highly active against CAZ-NS isolates.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Gepotidacin (GEP) is a novel bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor in Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of gonorrhea and uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTI). This study characterized fluoroquinolone (FQ)-not susceptible (not S) E. coli causing UTI in U.S. patients and evaluated the in vitro activity of GEP and comparators against various drug resistance (R) subsets. Methods 1,035 E. coli collected from 38 U.S. sites were included as part of the GEP Global UTI Surveillance Program (2019). Isolates were tested for susceptibility by broth microdilution. E. coli with MICs ≥0.5 mg/L for ciprofloxacin (not S) and/or ≥1 mg/L for levofloxacin (not S) were selected for screening of FQ-R mechanisms, and subjected to genome sequencing, followed by screening of FQ-R genes and QRDR mutations in GyrA, GyrB, ParC and ParE. Results A total of 26.8% (277/1,035) E. coli met the screening criteria for FQ-not S (Table). Overall, GEP had MIC90 values of 2 mg/L and 4 mg/L against FQ-S and FQ-not S isolates, respectively. Nitrofurantoin had activity against the FQ-S and FQ-not S subsets (98.8% and 94.2%S, respectively), whereas amoxicillin-clavulanate (86.5% and 59.6%S) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (75.8% and 37.0%S) had limited activity. Most FQ-not S isolates (52.7%; 146/277) had double mutations in GyrA and ParC, followed by those isolates (20.6%; 57/277) with double mutations in GyrA and single mutations in ParC and ParE. The third most common genotype was represented by isolates (14.8%;41/277) with double mutations in GyrA and a single mutation in ParC. GEP had MIC50 values of 1 mg/L or 2 mg/L and MIC90 values of 2 mg/L or 4 mg/L when tested against isolates with various combinations of QRDR mutations. 4.3% (12/277) of FQ-not S E. coli carried qnrB (6) or qnrS (6), and GEP (MIC50/90, 8/16 mg/L) had MICs of 0.5–32 mg/L against this subset. Conclusion GEP demonstrated potent activity against FQ-S and FQ-not S E. coli causing UTI in the U.S. In addition, GEP MIC did not seem to be affected by any combinations of FQ-R genes and QRDR mutations tested, except against the rare presence of qnrB/S genes. These data support the clinical development of GEP as a treatment option for UTI caused by FQ-S and FQ-not S E. coli isolates. Table Disclosures Rodrigo E.

Cefiderocol In Vitro Activity Against Molecularly Characterized Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus Complex and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Isolates Causing Infection in United States Hospitals (2020)."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel siderophore-conjugated cephalosporin with broad activity against aerobic, nonfastidious Gram-negative bacteria. CFDC and comparator activities were analyzed against molecularly characterized A. baumannii-calcoaceticus complex (ACB) and P. aeruginosa (PSA), as a part of the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program in the USA. Methods 248 ACB and 1,069 PSA were consecutively collected from 30 sites in 2020. Susceptibility was performed by broth microdilution and CFDC testing used iron-depleted media. FDA and CLSI breakpoints were used for CFDC. CLSI criteria were applied to comparators, except for imipenem-relebactam (IMR) that used FDA breakpoints. ACB and PSA with imipenem and/or meropenem (MER) MIC ≥4 μg/mL or ceftazidime (CAZ) and/or cefepime MIC ≥16 μg/mL were subjected to next-generation genome sequencing for screening for acquired extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase genes. Results 33.0% of PSA met the MIC screening criteria, and ESBL or carbapenemase genes were not detected among these isolates, except for 1 strain with blaIMP-1. CFDC (97.7-100% susceptible [S]) had similar MIC50 (0.12 μg/mL) and MIC90 (0.25-0.5 μg/mL) values against both PSA populations, as did IMR (91.8-100%S). An MIC of 1 μg/mL was noted for CFDC against the single blaIMP-1-carrying isolate, whereas other agents had MIC values >8 μg/mL (Table). CFDC (MIC50/90, 0.25/2 μg/mL) had the lowest MIC against ACB that met the MIC screening criteria, whereas CFDC, IMR, MER and CAZ were active (99.2-100%S) against MIC screen negative ACB. CFDC (MIC50/90, 0.25/2 μg/mL; 86.7-96.7%S) and IMR (MIC50/90, 0.25/1 μg/mL; 90.0%S) were the most active agents against ACB where only blaOXA-51 and variant genes were noted. CFDC was the only agent active (93.9-100%S; CLSI criteria) against ACB carrying blaOXA-23 (MIC50/90, 0.5/4 μg/mL), blaOXA-24 (MIC50/90, 0.25/1 μg/mL) or other genes (MIC50, 1 μg/mL). Conclusion Acquired ESBL and carbapenemase genes remained rare among multidrug-resistant PSA in USA hospitals, whereas acquired blaOXA carbapenemase were prevalent among ACB. CFDC showed potent activity against PSA subsets, as well as across molecularly characterized subsets of ACB, where treatment options were limited. Disclosures Rodrigo E.

Abstract Background Bone and joint infections (BJI) comprise a series of disorders, including septic arthritis, osteomyelitis, and prosthetic joint infections. Dalbavancin (DALBA) is a lipoglycopeptide with a very long half-life that allows the treatment of serious infections with once weekly or biweekly administration. We evaluated the activity of DALBA against pathogens isolated from BJI. Methods A total of 798 organisms were collected from 62 US and 28 European (EU) hospitals in 2016-2020, including 503 S. aureus, 140 β-haemolytic streptococci (BHS), 71 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), 57 Enterococcus spp. (ESP), 22 viridans group streptococci (VGS), and 5 S. pneumoniae. Bacteria were identified by standard algorithms and MALDI-TOF-MS. Susceptibility testing was performed by the reference broth microdilution method in a central laboratory. Results S. aureus (63.0%) was the most common pathogen associated with BJI, followed by BHS (17.5%), CoNS (8.9%), and ESP (7.1%). All S. aureus isolates were susceptible (S) to DALBA (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.03 mg/L), linezolid (LNZ; MIC50/90, 1/2 mg/L), teicoplanin (TEI; MIC50/90, ≤0.5/1 mg/L), vancomycin (VAN; MIC50/90, 1/1 mg/L), and daptomycin (DAPTO; MIC50/90, 0.25/0.0.5 mg/L. DALBA was 8- to 16-fold more potent than DAPTO and 32- to 64-fold more potent than LNZ, VAN, and TEI against S. aureus. Oxacillin resistance (OXA-R) rates among S. aureus (MRSA rates) were 35.5% and 15.4% in the US and EU, respectively. Ceftaroline (CPT) was active against 98.6% of S. aureus (MIC50/90, 0.25/1 mg/L) and 94.7% of MRSA (MIC50/90, 1/1 mg/L) isolates. Doxycycline and levofloxacin were active against 97.0% and 76.5% of S. aureus, respectively. Among CoNS, (54.9% OXA-R), DALBA (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.03 mg/L; highest MIC, 0.12 mg/L) was the most potent agent, followed by DAPTO (MIC50/90, 0.25/0.5 mg/L), CPT (MIC50/90, 0.25/0.5 mg/L) and LNZ (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 mg/L). The highest DALBA MIC value among BHS and VGS was 0.12 mg/L (MIC90, 0.03 mg/L for both groups). VAN was active against 82.4% of ESP and DALBA inhibited all VAN-S ESP at ≤0.06 mg/L. Conclusion DALBA demonstrated potent in vitro activity against common gram-positive organisms (GP) causing BJI and appears to be a valuable option to treat BJI/osteomyelitis caused by GP.

Epidemiology and Susceptibility Profiles of ST131-O25b Escherichia coli Detected Among Cephalosporin and/or Carbapenem-Resistant Isolates Collected in United States Hospitals."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background ST131 Escherichia coli possess virulence genes, adaptability for human colonization and are often associated to resistance genes. We evaluated the prevalence, O-antigen and susceptibility profiles of ST131 among β-lactam resistant E. coli isolates collected in US hospitals. Methods A total of 6,768 E. coli isolates collected during 2017 and 2018 were susceptibility tested using reference broth microdilution method. Among these, 1,154 displayed MIC values >1 mg/L against 2 of the following: ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefepime or aztreonam or resistance to imipenem or meropenem (CLSI breakpoints) and were submitted to whole genome sequencing (WGS) and data analysis (MLST and O antigen). The genes wzx, wzy, wzm, and wzt were used to identify the O-antigen. Reference guided assembly for gene cluster O-AGC was used to differentiate O25a and O25b. Results Among the WGS E. coli isolates, 627 (54.3%) belonged to ST131 or were single loci variants (SLVs; 1 allele difference). A total of 586 (93.5% of ST131 and 50.8% of sequenced isolates) belonged to the O25b serotype. The remaining 41 isolates belonged to serotypes O16 (40 isolates) or O153var1 (1). ST131 isolates and O25b isolates were considerably more resistant to fluoroquinolones (92.0%-93.3% and 94.7%-95.5%, respectively) when compared to the overall WGS isolate collection (75.6%-77.0%). ST131-O25b isolates were more resistant to 12 /16 antimicrobial agents analyzed, including all β-lactam agents (0.9%-12.7% more resistant), fluoroquinolones (34.5-41.0%), and aminoglycosides (1.2-37.3%). ST131 (49.0%) and ST131-O25b (51.5%) isolates had higher multi-drug resistant (MDR) rates compared to all E. coli isolates (7.3%), WGS isolates (41.4%), and isolates that did not carry these traits (32.4% for non-ST131 and 12.2% for non-O25b). Conclusion ST131 and ST131-O25b E. coli isolates were common among β-lactam resistant E. coli from US hospitals. These isolates were significantly more resistant than their counterparts, despite the elevated resistance rates of the overall WGS collection. ST131-O25b E. coli isolates have the potential to present a challenge for antimicrobial treatment. Specific therapies that are effective against these isolates should be investigated.

Optimization of a 96-well Plate Format Assay to Evaluate Concentration-Dependent Activity of a Monoclonal Antibody Against the O Antigen O25b from ST131-H30 Escherichia coli." Open Forum Infectious Diseases 8, Supplement_1 (November 1, 2021): S629—S631. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofab466.1272.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract Background Escherichia coli ST131 is a major challenge for global human health. Among ST131 isolates, the H30 type is prevalent and displays multiple drug resistance to classes. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for the O antigen, O25b, which is conserved in ST131-H30 clonal lineage, was developed for diagnostic and prophylactic therapy. We optimized a 96-well plate assay to test different concentrations of the mAb against E. coli clinical isolates. Methods Initial growth curves were performed against 69 ST131-O25b, 9 ST131-O25a, 32 ST131 non-O25, and 29 non-ST131 E. coli isolates in 40% active human serum (HS). Additional conditions evaluated for growth inhibition by the mAb included 3 media types, 3 HS sources, pH variations, addition of polysorbate 80 (P80), inoculum concentration, length of incubation, and varying calcium and magnesium concentrations. Once optimal parameters were established, the assay was miniaturized into a 96-well format and 12 ST131-O25b and 5 non-ST131 were tested. Fluorescence and visual reading using alamarBlue (AB), a cell metabolism indicator, were performed at 8 and 10h in addition to plating for viable colonies. Results After 10h incubation, only 36/69 (52.2%) ST131-O25b isolates exhibited visible growth in BHI plus 40% HS. A 2-part growth inhibition assay using BHI plus 50% HS and BHI with 25% HS without the addition of P80, calcium, or magnesium was considered the optimal growth condition for EC strains to test the effect of the mAb. By 10 hours, all ST131-O25b strains displayed a visual inhibition of growth between 0.3-5 mg/L of α-ST131 mAb and zero non-ST131 strains were inhibited (Figure). While reading AB on a fluorometer was more sensitive and less subjective than visual interpretation, both reading methods allow for endpoint determinations. Additionally, panels were able to go through one freeze-thaw cycle and still retain α-ST131:O25b mAb activity. Conclusion Concentration-dependent activity of a α-ST131:O25b mAb can be measured in vitro in a microtiter format; however, the growth inhibition by HS, while still providing enough complement for complement-mediated mAb killing, might be an obstacle. Additionally, assay reproducibility may be difficult without a consistent source of active HS.

Full textAbstract:
What is most notable about the life and the career of Professor Kathryn R. Heidt is not that it was tragically cut short by her death on May 24, 2005, but that she was able to achieve so much, both personally and professionally, in the too-brief time allotted to her. After receiving her bachelor’s degree from Penn State and her J.D. from Cleveland State College of Law, Professor Heidt clerked for two years for the Honorable John T. Patton of the Ohio Court of Appeals before becoming an associate with the Philadelphia law firm Duane Morris & Heckscher. Opting for a change in her path in the law, she obtained an LL.M. from Yale Law School and began her distinguished academic career. Before joining the faculty of the University of Pittsburgh as a Professor of Law in 1995, Professor Heidt had served on the law faculty at Wayne State University Law School, and had been a visiting faculty member of the University of Pennsylvania Law School, the University of North Carolina School of Law, New York Law School, and the Law Faculty of the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands.
