This study compared the activity of 8 novel antibiotics against CRE isolates and investigated the susceptibility benefit of adding a second antibiotic. The results showed that aminoglycosides and polymyxins provided greater incremental coverage compared to fluoroquinolones. The study highlights the importance of understanding the molecular epidemiology of CRE in selecting appropriate antibiotics.
Objective: We compared the activity of 8 novel beta-lactam and tetracycline-derivative antibiotics against a cohort of clinical carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) isolates and investigated the incremental susceptibility benefit of the addition of an aminoglycoside, fluoroquinolone, or polymyxin to the beta-lactam agents to assist with empiric antibiotic decision making. Methods: A collection of consecutive CRE clinical isolates from unique patients at 3 US hospitals (2016-2021) was assembled. Broth microdilution was performed to obtain antimicrobial susceptibility testing results. Mechanisms of carbapenem resistance were investigated through short-read and long-read whole-genome sequencing. Results: Of the 603 CRE isolates, 276 (46%) were carbapenemase producing and 327 (54%) were non-carbapenemase producing, respectively. The organisms most frequently identified were Klebsiella pneumoniae (38%), Enterobacter cloacae complex (26%), and Escherichia coli (16%). We obtained the following percent susceptibility to novel beta-lactam agents: ceftazidime-avibactam (95%), meropenem-vaborbactam (92%), imipenem-relebactam (84%), and cefiderocol (92%). Aminoglycosides and the polymyxins provided greater incremental coverage as second agents, compared to fluoroquinolones. Amikacin and plazomicin exhibited the greatest additive value. Ceftazidime-avibactam, meropenem-vaborbactam, and cefiderocol were active against 94% of the 220 KPC-producing isolates. Cefiderocol was active against 83% of the 29 NDM-producing isolates. Ceftazidime-avibactam had 100% activity against the 9 OXA-48-like-producing isolates. Tigecycline had the highest activity compared to other tetracyclines against KPC, NDM, or OXA-48-like-producing isolates. Conclusion: Selection among novel agents requires a nuanced understanding of the molecular epidemiology of CRE. This work provides insights into the comparative activity of novel agents and the additive value of a second antibiotic for empiric antibiotic decision making.
