We evaluated the efficacy of escalating doses of exebacase administered with subtherapeutic daptomycin exposures against 8 isolates in a neutropenic murine thigh infection model. Daptomycin alone resulted in mean growth of 0.39 ± 1.19 log CFU/thigh. When administered with daptomycin, exebacase resulted in a mean log CFU/thigh reduction of -1.03 ± 0.72 (range, -0.77 ± 0.98 to -1.20 ± 0.59) across evaluated doses (15 to 90 mg/kg), indicative of potential synergy.

Pharmacodynamics of NOSO-502 studied in vitro and in vivo: determination of the dominant pharmacodynamic index driver.

J Antimicrob Chemother

January 2025

Bristol Centre for Antimicrobial Research & Evaluation (BCARE), Infection Sciences, Southmead Hospital, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol, UK.

Background: NOSO-5O2 is the first clinical candidate of a new antimicrobial class-the odilorhabdins. The pharmacodynamics of NOSO-502 were studied in vitro and in vivo to establish the pharmacodynamic index (PDI) driver.

Methods: A dilutional pharmacokinetic system was used for in vitro experiments.

Introduction: Pralurbactam (FL058) is a novel β-lactamase inhibitor with good inhibitory activity on class A, C, and D β-lactamases. This study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship of pralurbactam/meropenem in a neutropenic murine thigh infection model.

Methods: After 2-h infection, neutropenic mice was treated with meropenem every 2 h alone or in combination with pralurbactam at different dosing frequencies for 24 h, and the colony count in the thighs was determined before and after treatment.

Therapeutic options for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CA-AB) are quite limited. Cefiderocol, a novel siderophore cephalosporin, has shown potent in vitro activity against CR-AB, and new tetracycline analogues such as eravacycline and omadacycline have been available in recent years. However, the synergism of cefiderocol with tetracycline analogues against CR-AB has not been well investigated.

Background: Sulbactam is an effective therapy for infections. Previous sulbactam pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) analyses established exposure efficacy targets in plasma against pneumonia. Herein, we established sulbactam efficacy targets in epithelial lining fluid (ELF).

Carbapenemase-producing (KPC) are globally emerging pathogens that cause life-threatening infections. Novel treatment alternatives are urgently needed. We therefore investigated the effectiveness of three novel bacteriophages (Spivey, Pharr, and Soft) in a neutropenic murine model of KPC gastrointestinal colonization, translocation, and disseminated infection.
