Comparative Activities of Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Ceftolozane-Tazobactam against Enterobacteriaceae Isolates Producing Extended-Spectrum ?-Lactamases from U.S. Hospitals.

ABSTRACT: The activities of ceftazidime-avibactam, ceftolozane-tazobactam, and comparators were evaluated for 733 isolates displaying resistance to broad-spectrum cephalosporins and carrying extended-spectrum ?-lactamase (ESBL) genes detected by whole-genome sequencing analysis. Isolates were collected during 2017 in U.S. hospitals. The ESBL producers were 486 Escherichia coli, 190 Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 42 Enterobacter cloacae isolates and isolates from 3 other species. The most common groups of ESBL-encoding genes were bla CTX-M-15-like (n?=?491 isolates) and bla CTX-M-15 alone (n?=?168) or plus bla OXA-1 (n?=?260), followed by bla CTX-M-14-like (n?=?162), which included bla CTX-M-27 and bla CTX-M-14 (104 and 51 isolates, respectively), and bla SHV-12 and bla SHV-7 (48 and 22 isolates, respectively). ESBL producers carried other ?-lactamases, including 1 E. cloacae harboring bla KPC-3 All ESBL-producing isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime-avibactam, and 90.2/83.9% (CLSI/EUCAST breakpoints) were susceptible to ceftolozane-tazobactam. Tigecycline (98.1/95.8% susceptible) and colistin (99.2%) were comparators that displayed the greatest activity against these isolates. Ceftolozane-tazobactam inhibited 91.4/83.9% of isolates carrying bla CTX-M-15-like and 97.5/95.1% of isolates carrying bla CTX-M-14-like, and its activity was more limited against the 91 isolates carrying bla SHV (66.7/61.1% susceptible). Ceftolozane-tazobactam inhibited 95.5% of the E. coli isolates but only 83.0%, 64.3%, and 80.0% of K. pneumoniae, E. cloacae, and other species harboring ESBL-encoding genes (CLSI breakpoints), respectively. Outer membrane protein sequences for ceftolozane-tazobactam-nonsusceptible isolates did not exhibit significant differences compared to those in genetically related ceftolozane-tazobactam-susceptible isolates. Ceftazidime-avibactam was more active than other agents tested, including ceftolozane-tazobactam, and the activity of this combination was stable regardless of species or ESBL gene carried.

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates have been increasingly reported worldwide, and therapeutic options to treat infections caused by these organisms are limited. We evaluated the activity of ceftazidime-avibactam and comparators against 456 Enterobacteriaceae isolates carrying blaKPC collected from 79 U.S. hospitals during 2012 to 2015. Overall, ceftazidime-avibactam (MIC50/90, 0.5/2 μg/ml; 99.3% susceptible) and tigecycline (MIC50/90, 0.5/1 μg/ml; 98.9% susceptible at ≤2 μg/ml) were the most active agents. Only 80.5% and 59.0% of isolates were susceptible to colistin and amikacin, respectively. All three isolates (0.7%) displaying resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam (K. pneumoniae; MICs, ≥16 μg/ml) were evaluated using whole-genome sequencing analysis and relative quantification of expression levels of porins and efflux pump. Two isolates carried metallo-β-lactamase genes, blaNDM-1 or blaVIM-4, among other β-lactam resistance mechanisms, and one displayed a premature stop codon in ompK35 and decreased expression of ompK36 Ceftazidime-avibactam was active against 100.0 and 99.3% of isolates carrying blaKPC-3 (n = 221) and blaKPC-2 (n = 145), respectively. Isolates carrying blaKPC were more commonly recovered from pneumonia (n = 155), urinary tract (n = 93), and skin/soft tissue (n = 74) infections. Ceftazidime-avibactam (97.8 to 100.0% susceptible) was consistently active against isolates from all infection sites. K. pneumoniae (83.3% of the collection) susceptibility rates were 99.2% for ceftazidime-avibactam, 98.9% for tigecycline, and 80.1% for colistin. Ceftazidime-avibactam susceptibility did not vary substantially when comparing isolates from intensive care unit (ICU) patients to those from non-ICU patients. Ceftazidime-avibactam was active against this large collection of isolates carrying blaKPC and represents a valuable addition to the armamentarium currently available for the treatment of infections caused by KPC-producing Enterobacteriaceae.

Project description:Infections caused by ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam-resistant P. aeruginosa infections are an emerging concern. We aimed to analyze the underlying ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam resistance mechanisms in all multidrug-resistant or extensively drug-resistant (MDR/XDR) P. aeruginosa isolates recovered during 1 year (2020) from patients with a documented P. aeruginosa infection. Fifteen isolates showing ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam resistance were evaluated. Clinical conditions, previous positive cultures, and β-lactams received in the previous month were reviewed for each patient. MICs were determined by broth microdilution. Multilocus sequence types (MLSTs) and resistance mechanisms were determined using short- and long-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS). The impact of Pseudomonas-derived cephalosporinases (PDCs) on β-lactam resistance was demonstrated by cloning into an ampC-deficient PAO1 derivative (PAOΔC) and construction of 3D models. Genetic support of acquired β-lactamases was determined in silico from high-quality hybrid assemblies. In most cases, the isolates were recovered after treatment with ceftolozane-tazobactam or ceftazidime-avibactam. Seven isolates from different sequence types (STs) owed their β-lactam resistance to chromosomal mutations and all displayed specific substitutions in PDC: Phe121Leu and Gly222Ser, Pro154Leu, Ala201Thr, Gly214Arg, ΔGly203-Glu219, and Glu219Lys. In the other eight isolates, the ST175 clone was overrepresented (6 isolates) and associated with IMP-28 and IMP-13, whereas two ST1284 isolates produced VIM-2. The cloned PDCs conferred enhanced cephalosporin resistance. The 3D PDC models revealed rearrangements affecting residues involved in cephalosporin hydrolysis. Carbapenemases were chromosomal (VIM-2) or plasmid-borne (IMP-28, IMP-13) and associated with class-1 integrons located in Tn402-like transposition modules. Our findings highlighted that cephalosporin/β-lactamase inhibitors are potential selectors of MDR/XDR P. aeruginosa strains producing PDC variants or metallo-β-lactamases. Judicious use of these agents is encouraged.

Project description:Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa increasingly causes health care-associated infections. In this study, we determined the activity of ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, and cefiderocol against 223 MDR P. aeruginosa clinical isolates recovered from 2013 to 2017 at the University Hospital Frankfurt by using MIC test strips. Furthermore, we evaluated the presence of genes encoding major β-lactamases, such as VIM, IMP, NDM, GIM, SPM, and KPC; the extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-carbapenemase GES; and the virulence-associated traits ExoS and ExoU, as in particular ExoU is thought to be associated with poor clinical outcome. For MDR P. aeruginosa isolates, the MIC50/MIC90 values of ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, and cefiderocol were 8/>256 mg/L, 16/>256 mg/L, and 0.25/1 mg/L, respectively. Cefiderocol showed the highest susceptibility rate (97.3%) followed by ceftazidime-avibactam (48.4%) and ceftolozane-tazobactam (46.6%). In 81 (36.3%) isolates, carbapenemase gene blaVIM was detected, and in 5 (2.2%) isolates, blaGES was detected (with a positive association of exoU and blaVIM). More than half of the isolates belong to the so-called international P. aeruginosa "high-risk" clones, with sequence type 235 (ST235) (24.7%) being the most prevalent. This study underlines that ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, and cefiderocol are important options for the treatment of infections due to MDR P. aeruginosa, with cefiderocol currently being the most active available antipseudomonal β-lactam agent. According to our clinical experience, the outcome of cefiderocol therapy (8 patients) was favorable especially in cases of MDR P. aeruginosa-associated complicated urinary tract infections. IMPORTANCE After testing ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, and cefiderocol against a collection of 233 multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, we showed that cefiderocol is the most active antipseudomonal β-lactam agent (susceptibility rates were 46.6%, 48.4%, and 97.4%, respectively). The most prevalent one was sequence type 235 (ST235) (24.7%), followed by ST244, ST175, and ST233, with all belonging to the top 10 P. aeruginosa high-risk clones with worldwide distribution. Our data indicate that during surveillance studies special attention should be paid to the MDR and highly virulent VIM- and ExoU-producing variant of ST235. Furthermore, in the case of infections caused by carbapenemase-producing MDR P. aeruginosa, cefiderocol is the preferred treatment option, while outcomes of complicated urinary tract infections and hospital-acquired pneumonia with cefiderocol were favorable.
