Identifying Spectra of Activity and Therapeutic Niches for Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Imipenem-Relebactam against Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae.

ABSTRACT: We determined imipenem, imipenem-relebactam, ceftazidime, and ceftazidime-avibactam MICs against 100 CRE isolates that underwent whole-genome sequencing. Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPCs) were the most common carbapenemases. Forty-six isolates carried extended-spectrum ?-lactamases (ESBLs). With the addition of relebactam, imipenem susceptibility increased from 8% to 88%. With the addition of avibactam, ceftazidime susceptibility increased from 0% to 85%. Neither imipenem-relebactam nor ceftazidime-avibactam was active against metallo-?-lactamase (MBL) producers. Ceftazidime-avibactam (but not imipenem-relebactam) was active against OXA-48-like producers, including a strain not harboring any ESBL. Major OmpK36 porin mutations were independently associated with higher imipenem-relebactam MICs (P < 0.0001) and showed a trend toward independent association with higher ceftazidime-avibactam MICs (P = 0.07). The presence of variant KPC-3 was associated with ceftazidime-avibactam resistance (P < 0.0001). In conclusion, imipenem-relebactam and ceftazidime-avibactam had overlapping spectra of activity and niches in which each was superior. Major OmpK36 mutations in KPC-K. pneumoniae may provide a foundation for stepwise emergence of imipenem-relebactam and ceftazidime-avibactam resistance.

Project description:Background:The efficacy of ceftazidime-avibactam-a cephalosporin-?-lactamase inhibitor combination with in vitro activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE)-compared with colistin remains unknown. Methods:Patients initially treated with either ceftazidime-avibactam or colistin for CRE infections were selected from the Consortium on Resistance Against Carbapenems in Klebsiella and other Enterobacteriaceae (CRACKLE), a prospective, multicenter, observational study. Efficacy, safety, and benefit-risk analyses were performed using intent-to-treat analyses with partial credit and the desirability of outcome ranking approaches. The ordinal efficacy outcome was based on disposition at day 30 after starting treatment (home vs not home but not observed to die in the hospital vs hospital death). All analyses were adjusted for confounding using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Results:Thirty-eight patients were treated first with ceftazidime-avibactam and 99 with colistin. Most patients received additional anti-CRE agents as part of their treatment. Bloodstream (n = 63; 46%) and respiratory (n = 30; 22%) infections were most common. In patients treated with ceftazidime-avibactam versus colistin, IPTW-adjusted all-cause hospital mortality 30 days after starting treatment was 9% versus 32%, respectively (difference, 23%; 95% bootstrap confidence interval, 9%-35%; P = .001). In an analysis of disposition at 30 days, patients treated with ceftazidime-avibactam, compared with those treated within colistin, had an IPTW-adjusted probability of a better outcome of 64% (95% confidence interval, 57%-71%). Partial credit analyses indicated uniform superiority of ceftazidime-avibactam to colistin. Conclusions:Ceftazidime-avibactam may be a reasonable alternative to colistin in the treatment of K. pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing CRE infections. These findings require confirmation in a randomized controlled trial.

Project description:The role of novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations in ceftazidime-nonsusceptible (CAZ-NS) and imipenem-nonsusceptible (IPM-NS) Pseudomonas aeruginosa has not been fully elucidated. This study evaluated the in vitro activity of novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations against Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates, determined how avibactam restored ceftazidime activity, and compared the activity of ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA) and imipenem-relebactam (IMR) against KPC-producing P. aeruginosa. Similar high susceptibility rates for CZA, IMR, and ceftolozane-tazobactam (88.9% to 89.8%) were found for 596 P. aeruginosa clinical isolates from 11 hospitals in China, and a higher susceptibility rate to ceftazidime than imipenem was observed (73.5% versus 63.1%). For CAZ-NS and IPM-NS isolates, susceptibility rates for CZA, ceftolozane-tazobactam, and IMR were 61.5% (75/122), 54.9% (67/122), and 51.6% (63/122), respectively. For CAZ-NS, IPM-NS but CZA-susceptible isolates, 34.7% (26/75) harbored acquired β-lactamases with KPC-2 predominant (n = 19), and 45.3% (34/75) presented overexpression of chromosomal β-lactamase ampC. Among 22 isolates carrying KPC-2 carbapenemase alone, susceptibility rates to CZA and IMR were 86.4% (19/22) and 9.1% (2/22), respectively. Notably, 95% (19/20) of IMR-nonsusceptible isolates had an inactivating mutation of oprD gene. In conclusion, CZA, ceftolozane-tazobactam, and IMR exhibit high activity against P. aeruginosa, and CZA is more active than IMR against CAZ-NS and IPM-NS isolates as well as KPC-producing P. aeruginosa. Avibactam overcomes ceftazidime resistance engendered by KPC-2 enzyme and overexpressed AmpC. IMPORTANCE The emergence of antimicrobial resistance poses a particular challenge globally, and the concept of P. aeruginosa with "difficult-to-treat" resistance (DTR-P. aeruginosa) was proposed. Here, P. aeruginosa clinical isolates were highly susceptible to three β-lactamase inhibitor combinations, CZA, IMR, and ceftolozane-tazobactam. The combination of KPC-2 enzyme and nonfunctional porin OprD contributed to IMR resistance in P. aeruginosa, and CZA was more active than IMR in fighting against KPC-2-producing P. aeruginosa. CZA also showed good activity against CAZ-NS and IPM-NS P. aeruginosa, primarily by inhibiting KPC-2 enzyme and overproduced AmpC, supporting the clinical use of CZA in the treatment of infections caused by DTR-P. aeruginosa.
