1264. In Vitro Activity of Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Comparator Agents Against Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Collected < 48 Hours and ≥48 Hours Post-Admission from Pediatric Patients, ATLAS Surveillance Program 2016-2019
BACKGROUND: Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a β-lactam/non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor combination with in vitro activity against Enterobacterales (Ent) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Psa) carrying Class A, C and some Class D β-lactamases. We examined the in vitro activity of CAZ-AVI and comparat...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a β-lactam/non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor combination with in vitro activity against Enterobacterales (Ent) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Psa) carrying Class A, C and some Class D β-lactamases. We examined the in vitro activity of CAZ-AVI and comparators against presumed community-acquired (CA; cultured < 48 h after hospital admission) and hospital-acquired (HA; cultured ≥48 h post-admission) isolates collected from pediatric patients as part of the ATLAS surveillance program. METHODS: 6654 non-duplicate isolates were collected in 52 countries in Europe (n=3423), Latin America (n=1323), Middle East/Africa (n=1177), and Asia/Pacific (excluding China; n=731) from patients (newborn to 17 y) with lower respiratory tract (LRTI; n=1687), urinary tract (UTI; n=1631), bloodstream (BSI; n=1149), skin and soft tissue (SSTI; n=1122), and intra-abdominal (IAI; n=981) infections. Susceptibility testing was performed by CLSI broth microdilution and values were interpreted using CLSI 2021 breakpoints. CAZ-AVI was tested at a fixed concentration of 4 µg/mL AVI. Isolates with CAZ or aztreonam MICs ≥2 µg/mL (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Proteus mirabilis) or meropenem MICs ≥2 µg/mL (all Ent species) or ≥4 µg/mL (Psa) were screened for β-lactamase genes. RESULTS: The in vitro activity of CAZ-AVI exceeded that of meropenem and other tested β-lactams against Ent (97.8% susceptible (S)) and Psa (92.1% S) collected globally from pediatric patients (Table). Percentages of susceptibility to CAZ-AVI ranged from 95.4-99.2% among CA Ent from different infection types and were reduced 0.6-1.3% among HA isolates from LRTI, UTI, SSTI, and IAI. Susceptibility to CAZ-AVI was also similar (92.6-95.8% S) among CA Psa from different infection types and was reduced 1.2-7.0% among HA isolates. Larger differences in susceptibility were typically seen for the tested comparator β-lactams. For Ent, the lowest percentages of susceptibility to the tested β-lactams were observed among isolates from BSI, while the pattern was less clear for Psa. Results Table [Image: see text] CONCLUSION: CAZ-AVI could provide a valuable therapeutic option for treatment of CA and HA infections caused by Ent and Psa in pediatric patients.
