Sumario:The clinical relevance of bacteriuria following antibiotic treatment of complicated urinary tract infections in clinical trials remains controversial. We evaluated the impact of urine pharmacokinetics on the timing of recurrent bacteriuria in a recently completed trial that compared oral tebipenem pivoxil hydrobromide to intravenous ertapenem. The urinary clearance and urine dwell time of ertapenem were prolonged relative to tebipenem and were associated with a temporal difference in the repopulation of bladder urine with bacteria following treatment, potentially confounding the assessment of efficacy.
