In Vitro Activity of Omadacycline and Five Comparators against Contemporary Ribotypes of Clostridioides difficile in Stockholm, Sweden

Clostridioides difficile infection represents a growing clinical challenge. The new compound omadacycline is a potential treatment alternative, as many antibiotics have limited activity or are rarely used due to costs and side effects. The activity of omadacycline and five comparators was assessed w...

description Clostridioides difficile infection represents a growing clinical challenge. The new compound omadacycline is a potential treatment alternative, as many antibiotics have limited activity or are rarely used due to costs and side effects. The activity of omadacycline and five comparators was assessed with agar dilution on a 2015-to-2018 collection of 65 C. difficile isolates from Sweden. Omadacycline demonstrated in vitro activity against the contemporary ribotypes of C. difficile, and further clinical investigation is needed. IMPORTANCE Evaluating the activity of novel antimicrobials like omadacycline is of great interest, as a reliable and efficient antimicrobial treatment for Clostridioides difficile infections is in demand.
