Activity of Oritavancin against Gram-Positive Pathogens Causing Bloodstream Infections in the United States over 10 Years: Focus on Drug-Resistant Enterococcal Subsets (2010–2019)

Oritavancin displayed potent and stable activity (MIC(90) range of 0.06 to 0.5 mg/L) over a 10-year period (2010 to 2019) against Gram-positive pathogens that cause bloodstream infections (BSI), including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and resistant subsets of Enterococcus spp. D...

Sumario:Oritavancin displayed potent and stable activity (MIC(90) range of 0.06 to 0.5 mg/L) over a 10-year period (2010 to 2019) against Gram-positive pathogens that cause bloodstream infections (BSI), including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and resistant subsets of Enterococcus spp. Daptomycin and linezolid were also active against methicillin-resistant S. aureus and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE). Only oritavancin and linezolid remained active against Enterococcus faecium isolates displaying an elevated daptomycin MIC (i.e., 2 to 4 mg/L). Proportions of methicillin-resistant S. aureus and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus within the respective S. aureus and enterococcal populations decreased over this period.
