BackgroundTo ascertain which demographic, clinical, and microbiological factors might affect clinical outcomes of patients with diabetic foot infections, excluding known osteomyelitis, by analysing Clinical Assessment Program and Teflaro (R) Utilization Registry study data of patients treated with ceftaroline fosamil. MethodsAt participating study centres, we collected data by randomized selection and chart review, including patient demographics, co-morbidities, infecting pathogens, antibiotic use, surgical interventions, and clinical response. Evaluable patients were those with data sufficient to determine clinical outcome. Clinical success was defined as clinical cure with no use of other antibiotics or clinical improvement with a switch to oral antibiotic therapy at the end of intravenous ceftaroline fosamil treatment. ResultsAmong 201 patients (mean age 61.7years, mean body mass index 33.2 and 57% male patients), 40% had peripheral vascular disease. Prior antibiotic therapy had been given to 161 (80%) of the patients, most commonly with vancomycin and/or piperacillin-tazobactam. Patients received ceftaroline fosamil for mean duration of 6.1days (range 1-30), as monotherapy in 130 (65%) patients and concurrently with other antibiotics in 71 (35%). Bacterial pathogens were identified in 114 (57%) of the patients; methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus were isolated from 56 (49%) and 28 (25%) of culture-positive patients respectively. Clinical success was noted in 81% of patients and was not significantly associated with co-morbidities, pathogen type, or need for surgical intervention. ConclusionsCeftaroline fosamil treatment of diabetic foot infections was associated with high clinical success, including inpatients with obesity, co-morbidities, or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or mixed infections or requiring surgical intervention.
