Abstract Background Cefiderocol (S-649266, CFDC) is a novel siderophore cephalosporin against Gram-negatives, including carbapenem (CR)-resistant strains. Its spectrum includes both the Enterobacteriaceae but also nonfermenters, including Stenotrophomonas maltophilia—an opportunistic pathogen with intrinsic resistance to carbapenem antibiotics. In this study, in vitro activity and in vivo efficacy of CFDC and comparators against S. maltophilia were determined. Methods MICs of CFDC and comparators (trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX), minocycline (MINO), tigecycline (TGC), ciprofloxacin (CPFX), cefepime (CFPM), meropenem (MEPM), and colistin (CL)) were determined by broth microdilution method as recommended by CLSI. The MIC against CFDC was determined using iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller–Hinton broth. In vivo efficacy of CFDC, CFPM, ceftazidime–avibactam (CAZ/AVI), MEPM, and CL was evaluated using neutropenic murine systemic infection model caused by strain SR21970. The 50% effective doses (ED50s) were calculated by the logit method using the survival number at each dose 7 days after infection. Results MIC90 of CFDC and comparators against the 216 clinical isolates from global countries collected in SIDERO-CR 2014/2016 study are shown in the table. CFDC, TMP/SMX, MINO, and TGC showed good activity with MIC90 of 0.5, 0.25/4.75, 1, and 2 µg/mL, respectively. CFDC, MINO, and TGC inhibited growth of all tested strains at ≤1, ≤4, and ≤8 µg/mL although two strains showed resistance to TMP/SMX. MICs of CFPM, CAZ/AVI, MEPM, and CL were ≥32 µg/mL. The ED50 of CFDC against S. maltophilia SR21970 with MIC of 0.125 mg/mL was 1.17 mg/kg/dose. Conversely, MICs of CFPM, CAZ/AVI, MEPM/CS, and CL against SR21970 were 32 μg/mL or higher, and ED50s were >100 mg/kg/dose, showing that CFDC had potent in vivo efficacy against S. maltophilia strain which was resistant to other antibiotics. Conclusion CFDC showed potent in vitro activity against S. maltophilia, including TMP/SMX-resistant isolates. CFDC also showed potent in vivo efficacy reflecting in vitro activity against S. maltophilia in murine systemic infection model. Disclosures A. Ito, Shionogi & Co., Ltd.: Employee, Salary. M.

ABSTRACT In vitro studies have demonstrated that anidulafungin has greater potency than caspofungin against Candida glabrata. However, data from in vivo studies demonstrating that it has superior efficacy are lacking. The objective of this study was to compare the activities of anidulafungin and caspofungin against C. glabrata in a murine model of disseminated candidiasis. Two clinical C. glabrata isolates were used, including one with reduced caspofungin susceptibility. MICs were determined by broth microdilution in the presence and absence of sera. For the animal studies, mice were immunosuppressed with 5-fluorouracil one day prior to intravenous inoculation. Treatment with anidulafungin and caspofungin (0, 0.5, 1, 5, and 10 mg/kg of body weight per day) was begun 24 h later and was continued through day 7 postinoculation. The CFU were enumerated from kidney tissue. According to the standard microdilution methodology, anidulafungin had superior in vitro activity. However, this enhanced potency was attenuated by the addition of mouse and human sera. Caspofungin reduced the kidney fungal burden at lower doses compared to that achieved with anidulafungin in mice infected with the isolate with the lower MIC. Against the strain with the elevated caspofungin MIC, both anidulafungin and caspofungin were effective in reducing the kidney fungal burden at the higher doses studied. Despite the greater in vitro activity of anidulafungin in the absence of sera, both echinocandins were similarly effective in reducing the fungal burden in kidney tissue. The superior in vitro activity of anidulafungin did not confer enhanced in vivo efficacy against C. glabrata.

Abstract Background Achromobacter spp. is intrinsically resistant to multiple antibiotics, and the treatment options are limited. Cefiderocol (CFDC), a siderophore cephalosporin approved in US and EU, is active against a wide variety of aerobic Gram-negative bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant strains. In this study, in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity of CFDC against Achromobacter spp. was evaluated. Methods A total of 334 global isolates collected by IHMA from 39 countries in 2015-2019 were used. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of CFDC and comparators were determined by broth microdilution method using iron-depleted CAMHB or CAMHB, respectively, as recommended by CLSI guidelines. In vivo efficacy of CFDC was compared with meropenem (MEM), piperacillin-tazobactam (PIP/TAZ), ceftazidime (CAZ), and ciprofloxacin (CIP) in a neutropenic murine lung infection model (n=5), and compared with MEM in a immunocompetent rat lung infection model (n=3-7) caused by 2 A. xylosoxydans. In the murine model, treatment was given 2, 5, and 8 hours post-infection, and the numbers of viable cfu in lungs were determined 24 hours post-infection. In the rat model, the humanized PK in plasma resulting from CFDC 2 g every 8 h (3-h infusion) or meropenem 1 g every 8 h (0.5-h infusion) were recreated via continuous intravenous infusion for 4 days, following which cfu in lungs were determined. Results CFDC showed in vitro activity with MIC50/90 of 0.06/0.5 µg/mL against 334 Achromobacter spp. Only 7 isolates (2.1%) had MICs > 4 µg/mL. These were the lowest values among all compound tested (Table). In the murine model, CFDC caused > 1.5 log10 decrease of viable cfu in lungs at 100 mg/kg dose (%fT >MIC: < 50%) from baseline control against both of strains (CFDC MIC: 0.5 and 2 µg/mL) (P< 0.05). No decrease of cfu in lungs was observed for the comparators at 100 mg/kg (MEM, PIP/TAZ, CAZ, and CIP MICs were >16, >64, >32, and >8 µg/mL, respectively). In the rat model, humanized CFDC dosing reduced the viable cfu by >1 log10 CFU/lung compared with baseline controls (P< 0.05). MEM showed no significant activity. In vitro activity of CFDC and comparator agents against Achromobacter spp. 334 Achromobacter spp. isolates collected from 2015 and 2019. The majority of isolates tested were A. xylosoxidans (312/334; 93.4%), followed by A. insolitus (11/334; 3.3%), Achromobacter sp. (8/334; 2.4%), A. denitrificans (2/334; 0.6%), and A. piechaudii (1/334; 0.3%). Conclusion CFDC showed potent in vivo efficacy reflecting in vitro activity against A. xylosoxidans. The results suggested that CFDC has the potential to be an effective therapeutic option for Achromobacter spp. infections.

Abstract Objectives To evaluate the in vitro activity and in vivo efficacy of fexinidazole against the main species that cause visceral and cutaneous New World leishmaniasis. Methods The inhibitory concentrations of fexinidazole against Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi, Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis in amastigotes were determined by in vitro activity assays. For the in vivo evaluation, animals were infected with L. (L.) infantum chagasi, L. (L.) amazonensis, L. (V.) braziliensis or Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis and divided into groups: (i) control; and (ii) treated with oral fexinidazole, from 50 to 300 mg/kg/day. For cutaneous leishmaniasis, the size of the lesion was determined weekly after the beginning of the treatment. Upon completion, parasites were recovered from the spleen and liver, or skin lesion and spleen, and evaluated by a limiting dilution assay. Results All Leishmania isolates were susceptible to fexinidazole in the in vitro assays. The viable parasites in the liver and spleen were reduced with 100 and 300 mg/kg/day, respectively, for L. (L.) infantum chagasi. For the species causing cutaneous leishmaniasis, the viable parasites in lesions and the size of the lesions were reduced, starting from 200 mg/kg/day. The viable parasites in the spleen were also reduced with 200 and 300 mg/kg/day for L. (V.) braziliensis and L. (L.) amazonensis. Conclusions Considering the defined parameters, fexinidazole showed in vitro and in vivo activity against all tested species. This drug may represent an alternative treatment for the New World species.
