Omic insights into various ceftazidime-avibactam-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from two southern Italian regions

Dafne Bongiorno et al.

Summary: This study reports the emergence of ceftazidime-avibactam resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing bacteria in Italy. Genomic analysis revealed the presence of multiple resistance genes and different KPC enzyme variants. Mutations in membrane permeability genes were identified as a potential mechanism underlying carbapenem resistance. Accurate detection methods for KPC enzymes are urgently needed.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate ceftazidime-avibactam resistant and susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated from a patient with SARS-CoV2. The patient's condition, antimicrobial therapies, and microbiological data were collected. The study found the presence of highly conserved ST2502 strains producing KPC-31 and KPC-3, selected by CZA and carbapenem treatments, respectively, in the patient.

Activity of ceftolozane-tazobactam, ceftazidime-avibactam, meropenem-vaborbactam, cefiderocol and comparators against Gram-negative organisms causing bloodstream infections in Northern Italy (2019-2021): emergence of complex resistance phenotypes

Gabriele Bianco et al.

Summary: This study found that the majority of Gram-negative bacteria showed high susceptibility to ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA), amikacin, and meropenem. ESBL-producing Enterobacterales also exhibited high susceptibility to CZA, carbapenems, and ceftolozane-tazobactam. Meropenem-vaborbactam displayed the highest activity against KPC-producing Enterobacterales.

The Genomic Characterization of KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae from the ICU of a Teaching Hospital in Shanghai, China

Yingying Du et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the genome characteristics of blaKPC-2 in multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae collected from a teaching hospital in Shanghai, China. The results showed that blaKPC-2 gene is relatively conservative in evolution, and there are significant differences in the plasmid-encoded region. The coexistence of blaKPC-2 with fosA6 or blaCTX-M variants is associated with increased resistance.

Giusy Tiseo et al.

Summary: The management of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms is challenging and requires a multidisciplinary approach. This paper provides recommendations for the diagnosis and optimal management of these infections, with a focus on targeted antibiotic therapy. However, the available evidence is limited, and some recommendations are based on low certainty. These recommendations should be regularly updated.

Meropenem/Vaborbactam and Cefiderocol as Combination or Monotherapy to Treat Multi-Drug Resistant Gram-Negative Infections: A Regional Cross-Sectional Survey from Piedmont Infectious Disease Unit Network (PIDUN)

Tommaso Lupia et al.

Summary: Meropenem/vaborbactam and cefiderocol are promising antibacterials against multi-drug resistant gram-negative bacilli. A survey was conducted among infectious disease and intensive care unit physicians of Italian hospitals to gather data on their habits and prescriptions of these drugs. The results showed that both cefiderocol and meropenem/vaborbactam were mostly used as targeted therapy after treatment failure and specialist consultation. The most common multi-drug resistant pathogen in hospitals was Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing bacteria.

Ceftazidime/avibactam in the era of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae: experience from a national registry study

I Karaiskos et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that ceftazidime/avibactam is effective in treating infections caused by KPC-Kp, significantly reducing mortality rates. Additionally, ultimately fatal disease, rapidly fatal disease, and Charlson comorbidity index ≥ 2 were identified as independent predictors of death, while treatment with ceftazidime/avibactam-containing regimens was the only independent predictor of survival.

Ceftazidime-Avibactam Use for Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase-Producing K. pneumoniae Infections: A Retrospective Observational Multicenter Study

Mario Tumbarello et al.

Summary: The study found that there was no significant difference in 30-day mortality rates between patients treated with ceftazidime-avibactam alone and those treated with combination regimens for managing infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. Factors such as septic shock and neutropenia at infection onset were positively associated with mortality, while prolonged infusion of CAZ-AVI was negatively associated with mortality. Further research is needed to explore the potential survival benefits of prolonging CAZ-AVI infusions in certain types of infections.

Summary: The study analyzed ceftazidime-avibactam-resistant KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains collected from 31 patients in six hospitals in Rome, revealing mutations in KPC variants within the bla(KPC-3) gene and the presence of high-risk clones (ST512, 101, and 307). The findings highlight concerns over the potential selection of a multidrug-resistant phenotype in strains showing resistance to both ceftazidime-avibactam and carbapenems.

Summary: The global spread of antimicrobial resistance poses a major threat to global health and development, with infections by MDRO often leading to unfavorable outcomes. The emergence of new antimicrobial agents with potent activity against MDROs requires careful and strategic utilization to improve patient outcomes, especially in environments with high prevalence of MDROs and among critically ill populations.

Summary: A study conducted in a university hospital in Rome, Italy identified multiple CZA-resistant KPC-3 protein variants, including novel variants that had not been reported before. These variants showed different sensitivities and activities to antibiotics, possibly due to mutations caused by amino acid substitutions, insertions, and deletions.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of KPC variants on CZA resistance, finding increased susceptibility to cephalosporins and carbapenems but increased resistance to ceftazidime and piperacillin-tazobactam. The KPC variants exhibited increased affinity towards ceftazidime and slightly decreased sensitivity to avibactam, impacting CZA resistance while concurrently negatively impacting carbapenemase activities.

Summary: This challenging case highlights the possibility of CZA underexposure on the infected thrombus and the risk of in vivo emergence of CZA resistance in the setting of persistent bacteremia and sub-optimal anticoagulation. Pharmacokinetic analyses showed that both MVB and FOS were in the therapeutic range, with in vitro studies demonstrating a high level of MVB + FOS synergism allowing definitive resolution of the endovascular infection.
