Intracellular activity and in vivo efficacy in a mouse model of septic arthritis of the novel pseudopeptide Pep16 against Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates. JAC Antimicrob Resist 2024; 6:dlae025. [PMID: 38410249 PMCID: PMC10895697 DOI: 10.1093/jacamr/dlae025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives Assessing the therapeutic potential of a novel antimicrobial pseudopeptide, Pep16, both in vitro and in vivo for the treatment of septic arthritis caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Methods Seven clinical isolates of S. aureus (two MRSA and five MSSA) were studied. MICs of Pep16 and comparators (vancomycin, teicoplanin, daptomycin and levofloxacin) were determined through the broth microdilution method. The intracellular activity of Pep16 and levofloxacin was assessed in two models of infection using non-professional (osteoblasts MG-63) or professional (macrophages THP-1) phagocytic cells. A mouse model of septic arthritis was used to evaluate the in vivo efficacy of Pep16 and vancomycin. A preliminary pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis was performed by measuring plasma concentrations using LC-MS/MS following a single subcutaneous injection of Pep16 (10 mg/kg). Results MICs of Pep16 were consistently at 8 mg/L for all clinical isolates of S. aureus (2- to 32-fold higher to those of comparators) while MBC/MIC ratios confirmed its bactericidal activity. Both Pep16 and levofloxacin (when used at 2 × MIC) significantly reduced the bacterial load of all tested isolates (two MSSA and two MRSA) within both osteoblasts and macrophages. In MSSA-infected mice, Pep16 demonstrated a significant (∼10-fold) reduction on bacterial loads in knee joints. PK analysis following a single subcutaneous administration of Pep16 revealed a gradual increase in plasma concentrations, reaching a peak of 5.6 mg/L at 12 h. Conclusions Pep16 is a promising option for the treatment of septic arthritis due to S. aureus, particularly owing to its robust intracellular activity.

In Vitro Activities of Oxazolidinone Antibiotics Alone and in Combination with C-TEMPO against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Biofilms. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:1706. [PMID: 38136740 PMCID: PMC10741017 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12121706] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are a global health concern. The propensity of MRSA to form biofilms is a significant contributor to its pathogenicity. Strategies to treat biofilms often involve small molecules that disperse the biofilm into planktonic cells. Linezolid and, by extension, theoxazolidinones have been developed to treat infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria such as MRSA. However, the clinical development of these antibiotics has mainly assessed the susceptibility of planktonic cells to the drug. Previous studies evaluating the anti-biofilm activity of theoxazolidinones have mainly focused on the biofilm inhibition of Enterococcus faecalis and methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus, with only a few studies investigating the activity of oxazolidinones for eradicating established biofilms for these species. Very little is known about the ability of oxazolidinones to eradicate MRSA biofilms. In this work, five oxazolidinones were assessed against MRSA biofilms using a minimum biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) assay. All oxazolidinones had inherent antibiofilm activity. However, only ranbezolid could completely eradicate MRSA biofilms at clinically relevant concentrations. The susceptibility of the MRSA biofilms to ranbezolid was synergistically enhanced by coadministration with the nitroxide biofilm dispersal agent C-TEMPO. We presume that ranbezolid acts as a dual warhead drug, which combines the mechanism of action of the oxazolidinones with a nitric oxide donor or cytotoxic drug.

Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic considerations for optimizing antimicrobial therapy used to treat bone and joint infections: an evidence-based algorithmic approach. Expert Opin Drug Metab Toxicol 2023; 19:511-535. [PMID: 37671793 DOI: 10.1080/17425255.2023.2255525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone and joint infections (BJIs) are a major health concern causing remarkable morbidity and mortality. However, which antimicrobial treatment could be the best according to specific clinical scenarios and/or to the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) features remains an unmet clinical need. This multidisciplinary opinion article aims to develop evidence-based algorithms for empirical and targeted antibiotic therapy of patients affected by BJIs. AREAS COVERED A multidisciplinary team of four experts had several rounds of assessment for developing algorithms devoted to empirical and targeted antimicrobial therapy of BJIs. A literature search was performed on PubMed-MEDLINE (until April 2023) to provide evidence for supporting therapeutic choices. Four different clinical scenarios were structured according to specific infection types (i.e. vertebral osteomyelitis, prosthetic joint infections, infected non-unions and other chronic osteomyelitis, and infectious arthritis), need or not of surgical intervention or revision, isolation or not of clinically relevant bacterial pathogens from blood and/or tissue cultures, and PK/PD features of antibiotics. EXPERT OPINION The proposed therapeutic algorithms were based on a multifaceted approach considering the peculiar features of each antibiotic (spectrum of activity, PK/PD properties, bone penetration rate, and anti-biofilm activity), and could be hopefully helpful in improving clinical outcome of BJIs.

Clinical, Bacteriological, and Genetic Characterization of Bone and Joint Infections Involving Linezolid-Resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis: a Retrospective Multicenter Study in French Reference Centers. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0419022. [PMID: 37133395 PMCID: PMC10269892 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.04190-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The choice of the best probabilistic postoperative antibiotics in bone and joint infections (BJIs) is still challenging. Since the implementation of protocolized postoperative linezolid in six French referral centers, linezolid-resistant multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (LR-MDRSE) strains were isolated in patients with BJI. We aimed here to describe clinical, microbiological, and molecular patterns associated with these strains. All patients with at least one intraoperative specimen positive for LR-MDRSE between 2015 and 2020 were included in this retrospective multicenter study. Clinical presentation, management, and outcome were described. LR-MDRSE strains were investigated by MIC determination for linezolid and other anti-MRSA antibiotics, characterization of genetic determinants of resistance, and phylogenetic analysis. Forty-six patients (colonization n = 10, infection n = 36) were included in five centers, 45 had prior exposure to linezolid, 33 had foreign devices. Clinical success was achieved for 26/36 patients. Incidence of LR-MDRSE increased over the study period. One hundred percent of the strains were resistant to oxazolidinones, gentamicin, clindamycin, ofloxacin, rifampicin, ceftaroline, and ceftobiprole, and susceptible to cyclins, daptomycin, and dalbavancin. Susceptibility to delafloxacin was bimodal. Molecular analysis was performed for 44 strains, and the main mutation conferring linezolid resistance was the 23S rRNA G2576T mutation. All strains belonged to the sequence type ST2 or its clonal complex, and phylogenetic analysis showed emergence of five populations corresponding geographically to the centers. We showed the emergence of new clonal populations of highly linezolid-resistant S. epidermidis in BJIs. Identifying patients at risk for LR-MDRSE acquisition and proposing alternatives to systematic postoperative linezolid use are essential. IMPORTANCE The manuscript describes the emergence of clonal linezolid-resistant strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis (LR-MDRSE) isolated from patients presenting with bone and joint infections. Incidence of LR-MDRSE increased over the study period. All strains were highly resistant to oxazolidinones, gentamicin, clindamycin, ofloxacin, rifampicin, ceftaroline, and ceftobiprole, but were susceptible to cyclins, daptomycin, and dalbavancin. Susceptibility to delafloxacin was bimodal. The main mutation conferring linezolid resistance was the 23S rRNA G2576T mutation. All strains belonged to the sequence type ST2 or its clonal complex, and phylogenetic analysis showed emergence of five populations corresponding geographically to the centers. LR-MDRSE bone and joint infections seem to be accompanied by an overall poor prognosis related to comorbidities and therapeutic issues. Identifying patients at risk for LR-MDRSE acquisition and proposing alternatives to systematic postoperative linezolid use become essential, with a preference for parenteral drugs such as lipopeptids or lipoglycopeptids.

Int J Pharm 2023:123067. [PMID: 37257794 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.123067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
This study deals with the development of novel poly(lactic acid-co-polyethylene glycol) nanoparticles (PLA-PEG NPs) for the efficient and prolonged delivery of Linezolid (LNZ), a synthetic antibacterial agent used against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). A two-step synthetic strategy based on carbodiimide coupling and copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition was first exploited for the conjugation of PLA with PEG. The encapsulation of LNZ into medium-molecular-weight PLA-PEG NPs was carried out by different methods including nanoprecipitation and dialysis. The optimal PLA-PEG@LNZ nanoformulation resulted in 3.5% LNZ payload (15% encapsulation efficiency, with a 10:3 polymer to drug ratio) and sustained release kinetics with 65% of entrapped antibiotic released within 80 h. Moreover, the zeta potential values (from -31 to -39 mV) indicated a good stability without agglomeration even after freeze-drying and lyophilization. The PLA-PEG@LNZ NPs exerted antimicrobial activity against a panel of Gram-positive bacteria responsible for human infections, such as S. aureus, MRSA, S. epidermidis, S. lugdunensis and vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE). Moreover, PLA-PEG@LNZ NPs showed inhibitory activity on both planktonic growth and preformed biofilm of MRSA. The antibacterial activity of LNZ incorporated in polymeric NPs was well preserved and the nanosystem served as an antibiotic enhancer with a potential role in MRSA-associated infections management.

Abstract
These guidelines are an update of those made in 2007 at the request of the French Society of Infectious Diseases (SPILF, Société de Pathologie Infectieuse de Langue Française). They are intended for use by all healthcare professionals caring for patients with disco-vertebral infection (DVI) on spine, whether native or instrumented. They include evidence and opinion-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of patients with DVI. ESR, PCT and scintigraphy, antibiotic therapy without microorganism identification (except for emergency situations), therapy longer than 6 weeks if the DVI is not complicated, contraindication for spinal osteosynthesis in a septic context, and prolonged dorsal decubitus are no longer to be done in DVI management. MRI study must include exploration of the entire spine with at least 2 orthogonal planes for the affected level(s). Several disco-vertebral samples must be performed if blood cultures are negative. Short, adapted treatment and directly oral antibiotherapy or early switch from intravenous to oral antibiotherapy are recommended. Consultation of a spine specialist should be requested to evaluate spinal stability. Early lifting of patients is recommended.

Off-label use versus formal recommendations of conventional and novel antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2023; 61:106763. [PMID: 36804370 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2023.106763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2022] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023]
Abstract
The infections caused by multidrug- and extensively drug-resistant (MDR, XDR) bacteria, including Gram-positive cocci (GPC, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, MDR-Streptococcus pneumoniae and vancomycin-resistant enterococci) and Gram-negative bacilli (GNB, including carbapenem-resistant [CR] Enterobacterales, CR-Pseudomonas aeruginosa and XDR/CR-Acinetobacter baumannii complex) can be quite challenging for physicians with respect to treatment decisions. Apart from complicated urinary tract and intra-abdominal infections (cUTIs, cIAIs), bloodstream infections and pneumonia, these difficult-to-treat bacteria also cause infections at miscellaneous sites (bones, joints, native/prosthetic valves and skin structures, etc.). Antibiotics like dalbavancin, oritavancin, telavancin and daptomycin are currently approved for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structural infections (ABSSSIs) caused by GPC. Additionally, ceftaroline, linezolid and tigecycline have been formally approved for the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and ABSSSI. Cefiderocol and meropenem-vaborbactam are currently approved for the treatment of cUTIs caused by XDR-GNB. The spectra of ceftazidime-avibactam and imipenem/cilastatin-relebactam are broader than that of ceftolozane-tazobactam, but these three antibiotics are currently approved for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia, cIAIs and cUTIs caused by MDR-GNB. Clinical investigations of other novel antibiotics (including cefepime-zidebactam, aztreonam-avibactam and sulbactam-durlobactam) for the treatment of various infections are ongoing. Nevertheless, evidence for adequate antibiotic regimens against osteomyelitis, arthritis and infective endocarditis due to several GPC and MDR-GNB is still mostly lacking. A comprehensive review of PubMed publications was undertaken and the formal indications and off-label use of important conventional and novel antibiotics against MDR/XDR-GPC and GNB isolates cultured from miscellaneous sites are presented in this paper.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although an increasing number of antibiotics are being used to treat bone and joint infections, their specific efficacy remains controversial. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the efficacy and safety of antibiotic therapies for orthopedic infections. METHODS PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched from inception to April 2022. Two authors independently and rigorously conducted the screening, data extraction, and quality assessment of the relevant studies. All the extracted data were evaluated using traditional metaanalysis and network meta-analysis by STATA SE 16.0. RESULTS A total of eleven randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 1,063 patients were included for data analysis. The analysis results from the NMA indicated that in terms of the clinical effectiveness rate, linezolid (OR: 1.75, 95% CI: 1.01 to 3.02) showed significant efficacy compared to ampicillin/sulbactam. With regard to the microbiological eradication rate, linezolid showed significant efficacy compared to cephalosporins (OR: 8.13, 95% CI: 1.16 to 57.09) and quinolones (OR: 3.51, 95% CI: 1.18 to 10.49). Similar findings were obtained for subgroup populations with diabetic foot infections (DFI). However, linezolid was significantly related to higher adverse events than ampicillin/sulbactam (OR: 3.25, 95% CI: 1.68 to 6.30) and cephalosporins (OR: 18.29, 95% CI: 1.59 to 209.76). CONCLUSION Linezolid appeared to be the most promising treatment regimen for staphylococcal bone and joint infections. However, due to the overall limited evidence, the research results need further high-quality RCTs for confirmation.

Zelmer AR, Nelson R, Richter K, Atkins GJ. Can intracellular Staphylococcus aureus in osteomyelitis be treated using current antibiotics? A systematic review and narrative synthesis. Bone Res 2022; 10:53. [PMID: 35961964 PMCID: PMC9374758 DOI: 10.1038/s41413-022-00227-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 05/26/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Approximately 40% of treatments of chronic and recurrent osteomyelitis fail in part due to bacterial persistence. Staphylococcus aureus, the predominant pathogen in human osteomyelitis, is known to persist by phenotypic adaptation as small-colony variants (SCVs) and by formation of intracellular reservoirs, including those in major bone cell types, reducing susceptibility to antibiotics. Intracellular infections with S. aureus are difficult to treat; however, there are no evidence-based clinical guidelines addressing these infections in osteomyelitis. We conducted a systematic review of the literature to determine the demonstrated efficacy of all antibiotics against intracellular S. aureus relevant to osteomyelitis, including protein biosynthesis inhibitors (lincosamides, streptogramins, macrolides, oxazolidines, tetracyclines, fusidic acid, and aminoglycosides), enzyme inhibitors (fluoroquinolones and ansamycines), and cell wall inhibitors (beta-lactam inhibitors, glycopeptides, fosfomycin, and lipopeptides). The PubMed and Embase databases were screened for articles related to intracellular S. aureus infections that compared the effectiveness of multiple antibiotics or a single antibiotic together with another treatment, which resulted in 34 full-text articles fitting the inclusion criteria. The combined findings of these studies were largely inconclusive, most likely due to the plethora of methodologies utilized. Therefore, the reported findings in the context of the models employed and possible solutions for improved understanding are explored here. While rifampicin, oritavancin, linezolid, moxifloxacin and oxacillin were identified as the most effective potential intracellular treatments, the scientific evidence for these is still relatively weak. We advocate for more standardized research on determining the intracellular effectiveness of antibiotics in S. aureus osteomyelitis to improve treatments and patient outcomes.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the in vitro antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of lysozyme (LYS) and its combination with various drugs against Gram-positive bacteria (GPB, n = 9), thus to provide an exploration direction for drug development. Methods The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of linezolid (LZD), amikacin (AMK), ceftriaxone/sulbactam (CRO/SBT), cefotaxime/sulbactam (CTX/SBT), piperacillin/sulbactam (PIP/SBT), doxycycline (DOX), levofloxacin (LVX), amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium (7 : 1, AK71), imipenem (IPM), azithromycin (AZM), and their combinations with LYS were determined with tuber twice dilution. The antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of LYS, AZM, LVX, and their combinations with others were evaluated through MTT and crystal violet assay. Results High-dose LYS (30 μg/mL) combined with PIP/SBT and AK71, respectively, showed synergistic antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), while it showed no synergistic activities when combined with other drugs. LYS and AZM inhibited the biofilm formation of one MRSA strain, but they and LVX had no similar activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) or vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF). Particularly, LYS increased the permeability of biofilms of MRSA 33 and exhibited antibiofilm activities against MRSA 31 (inhibition rate = 38.1%) and MRSE 61 (inhibition rate = 46.6%). The combinations of PIP/SBT+LYS, AMK+LYS, and LZD+LYS showed stronger antibiofilm activities against MRSA 62, MRSE 62, MRSE 63, and VREF 11. Conclusion The antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of LYS against MRSA were better than AZM, while that of LYS against MRSE and VREF, respectively, was similar with AZM and LVX.

Preparation of epigallocatechin gallate decorated Au-Ag nano-heterostructures as NIR-sensitive nano-enzymes for the treatment of osteoarthritis through mitochondrial repair and cartilage protection. Acta Biomater 2022; 144:168-182. [PMID: 35358735 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.03.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Revised: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), a widespread degenerative disease characterized by cartilage destruction, has emerged as a public health challenge in the current aging society. In addition to applied steroids and surgery, near-infrared (NIR) sensitive nano-enzyme for the treatment of osteoarthritis through mitochondrial repair and cartilage protection is attractive and promising. In this study, a NIR sensitive multifunctional heterostructure (EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate) decorated Au-Ag nano-jars (E@Au-Ag)) was introduced as an enzyme-sensitive active nanoplatform for the treatment of osteoarthritis. Molecular biology results indicated that E@Au-Ag possesses intrinsic properties of anti-oxidative stress and was able to reduce the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes by 83.3%. The area of the intra-articular joint cavity injected with E@Au-Ag can be elevated to 46.6 °C under NIR to promote the release of EGCG further to induce cartilage regeneration. X-ray radiography and section staining showed that E@Au-Ag reduced cartilage damage and decreased OARSI scores by approximately 52% after 8 weeks of treatment in a surgically induced OA model. The results demonstrated that this multifunctional enzyme-like nanoplatform with a synergistic NIR sensitive property to facilitate cartilage migration and regeneration repair provides a promising OA treatment strategy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: 1. NIR-sensitive nano-enzyme is gaining much attention in the field of biomedical materials. 2. EGCG decorated Au-Ag nano-heterostructures were utilized as NIR-sensitive nano-enzymes for the treatment of osteoarthritis through mitochondrial repair and cartilage protection. 3. The obtained multifunctional Au-Ag nano-heterostructures are promising for osteoarthritis treatment.

Role of Extracellular DNA in Dalbavancin Activity against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Biofilms in Patients with Skin and Soft Tissue Infections. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0035122. [PMID: 35416701 PMCID: PMC9045124 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00351-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become the leading cause of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs). Biofilm production further complicates patient treatment, contributing to increased bacterial persistence and antibiotic tolerance. The study aimed to explore the efficacy of different antibiotics on biofilm-producing MRSA isolated from patients with SSTI. A total of 32 MRSA strains were collected from patients with SSTI. The MIC and minimal biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) were measured in planktonic and biofilm growth. The study showed that dalbavancin, linezolid, and vancomycin all inhibited MRSA growth at their EUCAST susceptible breakpoint. Of the MRSA strains, 87.5% (n = 28) were strong biofilm producers (SBPs), while only 12.5% (n = 4) were weak biofilm producers (WBPs). The MBEC90 values for dalbavancin were significantly lower than those of linezolid and vancomycin in all tested strains. We also found that extracellular DNA (eDNA) contributes to the initial microbial attachment and biofilm formation. The amount of eDNA differed among MRSA strains and was significantly higher in those isolates with high dalbavancin and vancomycin tolerance. Exogenously added DNA increased the MBEC90 and protection of biofilm cells from dalbavancin activity. Of note, the relative abundance of eDNA was higher in MRSA biofilms exposed to MBEC90 dalbavancin than in untreated MRSA biofilms and those exposed to sub-MIC90. Overall, dalbavancin was the most active antibiotic against MRSA biofilms at concentrations achievable in the human serum. Moreover, the evidence of a drug-related increase of eDNA and its contribution to antimicrobial drug tolerance reveals novel potential targets for antibiofilm strategies against MRSA. IMPORTANCE Staphylococcus aureus is the most common cause of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) worldwide. In addition, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is increasingly frequent in postoperative infections and responsible for a large number of hospital readmissions and deaths. Biofilm formation by S. aureus is a primary risk factor in SSTIs, due to a higher antibiotic tolerance. Our study showed that the biofilm-forming capacity varied among MRSA strains, although strong biofilm producers were significantly more abundant than weak biofilm producer strains. Notably, dalbavancin demonstrated a potent antibiofilm activity at concentrations achievable in human serum. Nevertheless, dalbavancin activity was affected by an increased concentration of extracellular DNA in the biofilm matrix. This study provides novel insight for designing more targeted therapeutic strategies against MRSA and to prevent or eradicate harmful biofilms.

Abstract
Biofilms are part of the natural lifecycle of bacteria and are known to cause chronic infections that are difficult to treat. Most antibiotics are developed and tested against bacteria in the planktonic state and are ineffective against bacterial biofilms. The oxazolidinones, including the last resort drug linezolid, are one of the main classes of synthetic antibiotics progressed to clinical use in the last 50 years. They have a unique mechanism of action and only develop low levels of resistance in the clinical setting. With the aim of providing insight into strategies to design more potent antibiotic compounds with activity against bacterial biofilms, we review the biofilm activity of clinically approved oxazolidinones and report on structural modifications to oxazolidinones and their delivery systems which lead to enhanced anti‐biofilm activity.

Abstract
Infections associated with orthopaedic implants represent a major health concern characterized by a remarkable incidence of morbidity and mortality. The wide variety of clinical scenarios encountered in the heterogeneous world of infections associated with orthopaedic implants makes the implementation of an optimal and standardized antimicrobial treatment challenging. Antibiotic bone penetration, anti-biofilm activity, long-term safety, and drug choice/dosage regimens favouring outpatient management (i.e., long-acting or oral agents) play a major role in regards to the chronic evolution of these infections. The aim of this multidisciplinary opinion article is to summarize evidence supporting the use of the different anti-staphylococcal agents in terms of microbiological and pharmacological optimization according to bone penetration, anti-biofilm activity, long-term safety, and feasibility for outpatient regimens, and to provide a useful guide for clinicians in the management of patients affected by staphylococcal infections associated with orthopaedic implants Novel long-acting lipoglycopeptides, and particularly dalbavancin, alone or in combination with rifampicin, could represent the best antibiotic choice according to real-world evidence and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties. The implementation of a multidisciplinary taskforce and close cooperation between microbiologists and clinicians is crucial for providing the best care in this scenario.

Abstract
In situ forming implants (IFIs) are non-surgical approach using biodegradable polymers to treat bone fractures. The study aimed at preparing dual-drug-loaded IFIs to deliver pitavastatin (osteogenic drug) and tedizolid (antibiotic) using zein as the implant matrix via solvent-induced phase inversion method. At first, several investigations were done on pitavastatin-loaded zein IFIs, where three concentrations of zein were used (10, 20, and 30% w/v). IFIs were evaluated for their solidification time, rheological properties, injectability, and in vitro release. IFIs containing bioactive glass nanoparticles were prepared by the addition of non-doped bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGT0; 1, 3, 5, and 10% w/v) or titanium-doped bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGT5; 1% w/v) to the selected concentration of zein (30% w/v) and then evaluated. The optimized dual-medicated implant (D-ZIFI 1) containing pitavastatin, tedizolid, sodium hyaluronate (3% w/v), and BGT5 (1% w/v) was prepared and compared to IFI lacking both sodium hyaluronate and BGT5 (D-ZIFI 2). D-ZIFI 1 and 2 sustained the release profiles of both drugs for 28 days. SEM images proved the interconnected porous structure of D-ZIFI 1 due to sodium hyaluronate. In vivo studies on surgically induced bone defects in Sprague–Dawley rats signified the proper accelerated bone healing ability of D-ZIFI 1 over D-ZIFI 2. Results presented D-ZIFI 1 as a promising, effective, non-surgical approach for bone healing.

Abstract
Although biofilm-specific antibiotic susceptibility assays are available, they are time-consuming and resource-intensive, and hence they are not usually performed in clinical settings. Herein, we introduce a machine learning-based predictive modeling approach that uses routinely available and easily accessible data to qualitatively predict in vitro antibiofilm activity of antibiotics with relatively high accuracy. Three optimized models based on logistic regression, decision tree, and random forest algorithms were successfully developed in this study using data manually collected from published literature. In these models, independent variables that serve as significant predictors of antibiofilm activity are minimum inhibitory concentration, bacterial Gram type, biofilm formation method, in addition to antibiotic's mechanism of action, molecular weight, and pKa. The cross-validation method showed that the optimized models exhibit prediction accuracy of 67% ± 6.1% for the logistic regression model, 73% ± 5.8% for the decision tree model, and 74% ± 5% for the random forest model. However, the one-way ANOVA test revealed that the difference in prediction accuracy between the 3 models is not statistically significant, and hence they can be considered to have comparable performance. The presented modeling approach can serve as an alternative to the resource-intensive biofilm assays to rapidly and properly manage biofilm-associated infections, especially in resource-limited clinical settings.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus – a major aetiological agent of bone and joint infection (BJI) – is associated with a high risk of relapse and chronicity, in part due to its ability to invade and persist in non-professional phagocytic bone cells such as osteoblasts. This intracellular reservoir protects S. aureus from the action of the immune system and most antibiotics. To date, the choice of antimicrobial strategies for BJI treatment mostly relies on standard susceptibility testing, bone penetration of antibiotics and their ‘antibiofilm’ activity. Despite the role of intracellular persistent S. aureus in the development of chronic infection, the ability of antibiotics to target the S. aureus intraosteoblastic reservoir is not considered in therapeutic choices but might represent a key determinant of treatment outcome. This review provides an overview of the intracellular pharmacokinetics of antistaphylococcal drugs used in the treatment of BJI and of their ability to target intraosteoblastic S. aureus. Thirteen studies focusing on the intraosteoblastic activity of antibiotics against S. aureus were reviewed, all relying on in vitro models of osteoblast infection. Despite varying incubation times, multiplicities of infection, bacterial strains, and the types of infected cell lines, rifamycins and fluoroquinolones remain the two most potent antimicrobial classes for intraosteoblastic S. aureus eradication, consistent with clinical data showing a superiority of this combination therapy in S. aureus orthopaedic device-related infections.

Chauvelot P, Dupieux-Chabert C, Abad L, Souche A, Ferry T, Josse J, Laurent F, Valour F. Evaluation of intraosteoblastic activity of dalbavancin against Staphylococcus aureus in an ex vivo model of bone cell infection. J Antimicrob Chemother 2021; 76:2863-2866. [PMID: 34423360 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkab299] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Long-acting lipoglycopeptides are promising therapeutic options in Staphylococcus aureus bone and joint infections (BJIs). This study evaluated the ability of dalbavancin to eradicate the intraosteoblastic reservoir of S. aureus, associated with BJI chronicity. METHODS Osteoblastic cells were infected with a standardized inoculum of the S. aureus reference strain HG001 and incubated for 24 h with dalbavancin, vancomycin or rifampicin using the MIC, 10×MIC, 100×MIC and/or the intraosseous concentrations reached using standard therapeutic doses (i.e. vancomycin, 10 mg/L; rifampicin, 2 mg/L; and dalbavancin, 6 mg/L). The remaining intracellular bacteria were quantified by plating cell lysates. RESULTS MICs of dalbavancin, vancomycin and rifampicin were 0.125, 1 and 0.004 mg/L, respectively. Dalbavancin significantly reduced the intracellular inoculum of S. aureus starting at a concentration equal to the MIC, with a significant dose effect, ranging from a reduction of 31.4% (95% CI = 17.6%-45.2%) at MIC to 51.6% (95% CI = 39.8%-63.4%) at 100×MIC compared with untreated cells. Of note, dalbavancin was the only molecule to significantly reduce the intraosteoblastic inoculum at low concentration (MIC). At intraosseous concentrations, dalbavancin reduced the intracellular inoculum by 49.6% (95% CI = 45.1%-54.1%) compared with untreated cells (P < 0.001), with no significant difference compared with vancomycin (38.1%; 95% CI = 19.2%-57.0%; P = 0.646), and was less efficient than rifampicin (69.0%; 95% CI = 63.2-74.8; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Dalbavancin was able to decrease the intraosteoblastic S. aureus inoculum by 50% at intraosseous concentrations reached during standard human therapeutic dosing, with no difference compared with vancomycin, and remained less efficient than rifampicin. However, it was the only molecule significantly active at low concentration.

New Adapted In Vitro Technology to Evaluate Biofilm Formation and Antibiotic Activity Using Live Imaging under Flow Conditions. Diagnostics (Basel) 2021; 11:diagnostics11101746. [PMID: 34679444 PMCID: PMC8535051 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics11101746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2021] [Revised: 09/11/2021] [Accepted: 09/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The polymicrobial nature of biofilms and bacterial interactions inside chronic wounds are keys for the understanding of bacterial cooperation. The aim of this present study was to develop a technique to study and visualize biofilm in live imaging under flow conditions (Bioflux™ 200, Fluxion Biosciences). The BiofluxTM system was adapted using an in vitro chronic wound-like medium (CWM) that mimics the environment encountered in ulcers. Two reference strains of Staphylococcus aureus (Newman) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1) were injected in the BiofluxTM during 24 h to 72 h in mono and coculture (ratio 1:1, bacteria added simultaneously) in the CWM vs. a control medium (BHI). The quantification of biofilm formation at each time was evaluated by inverted microscopy. After 72 h, different antibiotics (ceftazidime, imipenem, linezolid, oxacillin and vancomycin) at 1x MIC, 10x MIC and 100x MIC were administrated to the system after an automatic increase of the flow that mimicked a debridement of the wound surface. Biofilm studies highlighted that the two species, alone or associated, constituted a faster and thicker biofilm in the CWM compared to the BHI medium. The effect of antibiotics on mature or “debrided” biofilm indicated that some of the most clinically used antibiotic such as vancomycin or imipenem were not able to disrupt and reduce the biofilm biomass. The use of a life cell imaging with an in vitro CWM represents a promising tool to study bacterial biofilm and investigate microbial cooperation in a chronic wound context.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:550853.

Abstract
Exebacase, a recombinantly produced lysin has recently (i) reported proof-of-concept data from a phase II study in S. aureus bacteremia and (ii) demonstrated antibiofilm activity in vitro against S. epidermidis. In patients with relapsing multidrug-resistant (MDR) S. epidermidis prosthetic knee infection (PKI), the only surgical option is prosthesis exchange. In elderly patients who have undergone several revisions, prosthesis explantation could be associated with definitive loss of function and mortality. In our BJI reference regional center, arthroscopic debridement and implant retention with local administration of exebacase (LysinDAIR) followed by suppressive tedizolid as salvage therapy is proposed for elderly patients with recurrent MDR S. epidermidis PKI with no therapeutic option or therapeutic dead end (for whom revision or transfemoral amputation is not feasible and no other oral option is available). Each use was decided in agreement with the French health authority and in accordance with the local ethics committee. A written consent was obtained for each patient. Exebacase (75 mg/mL; 30 mL) was administered directly into the joint during arthroscopy. Four patients (79-89 years old) were treated with the LysinDAIR procedure. All had several previous prosthetic knee revisions without prosthesis loosening. Three had relapsing PKI despite suppressive antibiotics following open DAIR. Two had clinical signs of septic arthritis; the two others had sinus tract. After the LysinDAIR procedure, no adverse events occurred during arthroscopy; all patients received daptomycin 8 mg/kg and linezolid 600 mg bid (4-6 weeks) as primary therapy, followed by tedizolid 200 mg/day as suppressive therapy. At 6 months, recurrence of the sinus tract occurred in the two patients with sinus tract at baseline. After >1 year follow up, the clinical outcome was favorable in the last two patients with total disappearance of clinical signs of septic arthritis even if microbiological persistence was detected in one of them. Exebacase has the potential to be used in patients with staphylococci PKI during arthroscopic DAIR as salvage therapy to improve the efficacy of suppressive antibiotics and to prevent major loss of function.

Abstract
Infective endocarditis, osteomyelitis, and osteosynthesis-associated infections are mostly caused by Gram-positive bacteria. They are often difficult to treat and are associated with a poor prognosis. In the past 20 years, nine antibiotic drugs with predominant activity against Gram-positive bacteria have been introduced and approved by the Food and Drug Administration or the European Medicines Agency: ceftaroline, daptomycin, telavancin, dalbavancin, oritavancin, linezolid, tedizolid, delafloxacin, and omadacycline. This narrative review aims to provide an overview on these antibiotics with a special focus on their use in infective endocarditis, osteomyelitis, and osteosynthesis-associated infections. Although some of these approved antibiotics are promising, they should not be used as first- or second-line therapy, awaiting more clinical data.

Staphylococcus aureus Internalization in Osteoblast Cells: Mechanisms, Interactions and Biochemical Processes. What Did We Learn from Experimental Models? Pathogens 2021; 10:pathogens10020239.

Abstract
Bacterial internalization is a strategy that non-intracellular microorganisms use to escape the host immune system and survive inside the human body. Among bacterial species, Staphylococcus aureus showed the ability to interact with and infect osteoblasts, causing osteomyelitis as well as bone and joint infection, while also becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotic therapy and a reservoir of bacteria that can make the infection difficult to cure. Despite being a serious issue in orthopedic surgery, little is known about the mechanisms that allow bacteria to enter and survive inside the osteoblasts, due to the lack of consistent experimental models. In this review, we describe the current knowledge about S. aureus internalization mechanisms and various aspects of the interaction between bacteria and osteoblasts (e.g., best experimental conditions, bacteria-induced damages and immune system response), focusing on studies performed using the MG-63 osteoblastic cell line, the best traditional (2D) model for the study of this phenomenon to date. At the same time, as it has been widely demonstrated that 2D culture systems are not completely indicative of the dynamic environment in vivo, and more recent 3D models—representative of bone infection—have also been investigated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Infection with a typical community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA), the USA300 clone, has become a worldwide epidemic. Biofilm formation at the site of infection is one of the reasons for the development of intractable infectious diseases resulting from this clone. Here we evaluated the in vitro antibiofilm effects of anti-MRSA agents to identify the most effective agent against the USA300 clone embedded in biofilms. METHODS Vancomycin, linezolid, teicoplanin, daptomycin, arbekacin and tigecycline were used as anti-MRSA agents. The biofilm permeability of the anti-MRSA agents was assessed using a biofilm-coated Transwell®. Morphological and compositional effects of anti-MRSA agents against biofilms were analysed based on the distribution of fluorescence intensity using confocal laser microscopy. Bactericidal activities of the anti-MRSA agents against biofilm-embedded S. aureus were compared. RESULTS The permeability rates of linezolid (93.1%), daptomycin (91.3%), arbekacin (87.1%) and tigecycline (99.7%) for biofilms formed by the USA300 clone were found to be significantly higher than those of vancomycin (64.9%) and teicoplanin (62.3%) (P < 0.01). Confocal microscopic analysis showed that daptomycin greatly altered the biofilm morphology (decreased thickness and increased roughness) and markedly reduced the area occupied by the biofilm. Furthermore, daptomycin effectively reduced the extracellular DNA of biofilms and showed the highest bactericidal activity against biofilm-embedded USA300 clone among the anti-MRSA agents. CONCLUSION The findings from this study demonstrate that, of the tested anti-MRSA agents, daptomycin is the most effective against biofilm-embedded USA300 clone in vitro.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis carries a high risk of recurrence even after extended, aggressive antibiotic therapy. One of the key challenges is to eradicate the reservoirs of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) inside the host bone cells and their biofilms. Our goal is to develop rifampicin loaded lipid-polymer hybrid nanocarriers (Rf-LPN) and evaluate if they can achieve enhanced rifampicin delivery to eradicate these intracellular and biofilm-residing MRSA. After optimization of the composition, Rf-LPN demonstrated size around 110 nm in diameter that remained stable in serum-supplemented medium, drug payload up to 11.7% and sustained rifampicin release for 2 weeks. When comparing Rf-LPN with free rifampicin, moderate but significant (p < 0.05) improvement of the activities against three osteomyelitis-causing bacteria (USA300-0114, CDC-587, RP-62A) in planktonic form were observed. In comparison, the enhancements in the activities against the biofilms and intracellular MRSA by Rf-LPN were even more substantial. The MBEC50 values against USA300-0114, CDC-587, and RP-62A were 42 vs 155, 70 vs 388, and 265 ng/ml vs over 400 ng/ml, respectively, and up to 18.5-fold reduction in the intracellular MRSA counts in osteoblasts was obtained. Confocal microscope images confirmed extensive accumulation of Rf-LPN inside the biofilm matrix and MRSA-infected osteoblasts. Overall, in this proof-of-concept study we have developed and validated the strategy to exploit the nanoparticle-cell and nanoparticle-biofilm interactions with a new rifampicin nanoformulation for prevention of osteomyelitis recurrence and chronicity caused by the elusive MRSA.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus infections associated with implanted medical devices are difficult to treat and require long-lasting antibiotic therapies, especially when device removal is not possible or easy such as in the case of joint prostheses. Biofilm formation is a major cause of treatment failure and infection recurrence. This study aimed to test, for the first time, the in vitro combination of tedizolid plus rifampicin on methicillin-sensitive (MSSA ATCC 6538) and methicillin-resistant (MRSA ATCC 43300) S. aureus mature biofilm. Here, we demonstrated that the combination of tedizolid with rifampicin significantly disaggregated pre-formed biofilm of both strains, reduced their metabolic activity and exerted bactericidal activity at clinically meaningful concentrations. Notably, tedizolid was able to completely prevent the emergence of resistance to rifampicin. Moreover these effects were similar to those obtained with daptomycin plus rifampicin, a well-known and widely used combination. Preliminary results on some MRSA clinical isolates confirmed the efficacy of this combination in reducing biofilm biomass and preventing rifampicin resistance onset. Further in vivo studies are needed to confirm the validity of this promising therapeutic option that can be useful against biofilm-associated S. aureus infections.

Abstract
Tedizolid is a new oxazolidinone antibiotic with little real-life data on use outside of skin and soft tissue infections. There is a paucity of safety evidence in courses greater than 6 days. Our centre uses tedizolid predominantly when linezolid-associated adverse events have occurred. This service evaluation describes our experience to date. We performed a retrospective service evaluation by reviewing case notes, prescription charts, and laboratory system results for each patient prescribed tedizolid at our hospital and recording patient demographics, clinical details, and outcomes. Sixty patients received tedizolid between May 2016 and November 2018. Most were treated for bone or joint infections and had stopped linezolid prior to tedizolid prescription. Mean length of tedizolid therapy was 27 days. Haematological adverse effects were infrequent. Most patients (72%) finished the course and their clinical condition improved during treatment (72%). Adverse events were common, but often not thought to be tedizolid related. Tedizolid appears to be safe in prolonged courses within this context. It may be suitable for longer-term antibiotic therapy within a complex oral and parenteral outpatient antibiotic therapy (COPAT) service. Patients who do not tolerate linezolid can be safely switched to tedizolid if appropriate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) are among the most frequent infectious diseases. Recently, several new antibiotics with activity against MRSA have been approved. Tedizolid, a second-generation oxazolidinone approved for ABSSSI offers theoretical advantages over first-generation oxazolidinones. AREAS COVERED A comprehensive online search of Medline, ClinicalTrials.gov, and conference presentations was made, selecting articles between January 2000 and April 2020. In this review, the authors discuss the chemical and microbiological properties of tedizolid, summarize its efficacy, safety, and potential role in the treatment of ABSSSI as well as the potential for future indications. EXPERT OPINION Tedizolid has proven to be non-inferior compared to linezolid for the treatment of ABSSSI in two registrational phase III clinical trials, being well tolerated. Tedizolid exhibits antibacterial activity against the most important ABSSSI pathogens (including multidrug-resistant strains of MRSA), as well as mycobacteria and Nocardia. It appears to have a safe profile, including decreased myelotoxicity and no significant drug interactions. Preliminary studies with longer duration of therapy seem to confirm these potential benefits. Overall, tedizolid expands the newly acquired armamentarium to treat ABSSSI. The role of tedizolid for other indications is under investigation and has yet to be determined.

Antibiofilm and intraosteoblastic activities of rifamycins against Staphylococcus aureus: promising in vitro profile of rifabutin. J Antimicrob Chemother 2020; 75:1466-1473. [DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkaa061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2019] [Revised: 01/28/2020] [Accepted: 01/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Background
Targeting biofilm-embedded and intraosteoblastic Staphylococcus aureus, rifampicin gained a pivotal role in bone and joint infection (BJI) treatment. Two other rifamycins, rifabutin and rifapentine, may represent better-tolerated alternatives, but their activity against bacterial reservoirs associated with BJI chronicity has never been evaluated.
Objectives
To evaluate the activities of rifampicin, rifabutin and rifapentine in osteoblast infection models.
Methods
Using three S. aureus isolates, rifamycins were compared regarding: (i) their intracellular activity in ‘acute’ (24 h) and ‘chronic’ (7 days) osteoblast infection models at 0.1× MIC, 1× MIC, 10× MIC and 100× MIC, while impacting infection-induced cytotoxicity (MTT assay), intracellular phenol-soluble modulin (PSM) secretion (RT–PCR), resistance selection and small colony variant (SCV) emergence; and (ii) their minimal biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) and their MIC to prevent biofilm formation (bMIC).
Results
At 0.1× MIC, only rifabutin significantly reduced intracellular inoculum and PSM secretion. All rifamycins allowed a 50% reduction of intraosteoblastic inoculum at higher concentrations, with no difference between acute and chronic infection models, while reducing infection-induced cytotoxicity and PSM secretion. Dose-dependent emergence of intracellular SCVs was observed for all molecules. No intracellular emergence of resistance was detected. bMICs were equivalent for all molecules, but MBEC90s of rifapentine and rifabutin were 10- to 100-fold lower than those of rifampicin, respectively.
Conclusions
All rifamycins are efficient in reducing the S. aureus intraosteoblastic reservoir while limiting infection-induced cytotoxicity, with a higher activity of rifabutin at low concentrations. All molecules prevent biofilm formation, but only rifapentine and rifabutin consistently reduce formed biofilm-embedded bacteria for all isolates. The activity of rifabutin at lower doses highlights its therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Intermittent hemodialysis, continuous hemofiltration and prolonged daily dialysis are used for renal replacement therapy in the intensive care units. Independent of the replacement modality, antibiotic therapy must start with a high loading dose. Dose adjustment to the kidneys must follow 48 h later to prevent toxic accumulation. Dose recommendations on product labels are often underdosed. On continuous hemofiltration, meanwhile many intensivists administer a normal standard dose because the high filtration rate corresponds to a half-normal glomerular filtration rate. After intermittent hemodialysis, a dose similar to the loading dose will be needed. On day off dialysis, the maintenance dose must be adjusted to the failing kidney function. Immediately after prolonged daily dialysis, a loading dose should be given; with twice daily dosing the maintenance dose needs to be adjusted to kidney function. Therapeutic drug monitoring is recommended for gentamicin, vancomycin, piperacillin, meropenem and voriconazole. Due to pharmacodynamic reasons, the target concentration corresponds to the concentration producing the half-maximum effect. Accordingly, the target concentration is the normal peak for concentration-dependent action with bolus dosing. The target is the average steady-state concentration for antibiotics with time-dependent action and continuous infusion.

Abstract
Background Linezolid belongs to a reserve group of antibiotics. In recent years, reports on linezolid resistance in gram-positive cocci have become more frequent. Overuse of linezolid is a relevant factor for resistance development. The objective of this study was to describe current prescription practices of linezolid in German hospitals and identify targets for antimicrobial stewardship interventions. Methods We analyzed all linezolid prescriptions from the datasets of the consecutive national point prevalence surveys performed in German hospitals in 2011 and 2016. In both surveys, data on healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial use were collected following the methodology of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. Results Overall, the percentage of linezolid among all documented antimicrobials increased significantly from 2011 to 2016 (p < 0.01). In 2011, 0.3% (119 of 41,539) patients received linezolid, in 2016 this proportion was significantly higher (0.4%; 255 of 64,412 patients; p < 0.01). In 2016, intensive care units (ICUs) were the wards most frequently prescribing linezolid. The largest proportion of patients receiving linezolid were non-ICU patients. Roughly 38% of linezolid prescriptions were for treatment of skin/soft tissue and respiratory tract infections. In 2016, linezolid was administered parenterally in 70% (n = 179) of cases. Multivariable analysis showed that the ward specialty ICU posed an independent risk factor, while Northern and Southwestern regions in Germany were independent protective factors for a high rate of linezolid prescriptions. Conclusions In conclusion, we detected potentials for improving linezolid prescription practices in German hospitals. Given the emergence of linezolid resistance, optimization of linezolid use must be a target of future antimicrobial stewardship activities.

Abstract
Introduction Tedizolid phosphate is an oxazolidinone approved for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections (ABSSSIs) and active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Aims The objective of this article was to review the evidence for the efficacy and safety of tedizolid phosphate for the treatment of ABSSSI. Evidence review Approval of tedizolid phosphate for the treatment of ABSSSI was based on the results of two phase III randomized controlled trials, ESTABLISH-1 (NCT01170221) and ESTABLISH-2 (NCT01421511), comparing 6-day once-daily tedizolid vs 10-day twice-daily linezolid. In ESTABLISH-1, noninferiority was met with early clinical response rates of 79.5% and 79.4% in tedizolid and linezolid groups, respectively (difference 0.1%, 95% CI –6.1% to 6.2%, with a 10% noninferiority margin). In ESTABLISH-2, noninferiority was met with 85% and 83% rates of early clinical response in tedizolid and linezolid groups, respectively (difference 2.6%, 95% CI –3.0% to 8.2%). Pooled data from ESTABLISH-1 and ESTABLISH-2 indicated a lower frequency of thrombocytopenia in tedizolid-treated than in linezolid-treated patients. Conclusion Tedizolid offers the option of an intravenous to oral switch, allows once-daily administration, and presents lower risk of myelotoxicity when a 6-day course is used for the treatment of ABSSSI. Greater economic cost associated with this antibiotic could be offset by its shorter treatment duration and possibility of oral administration in routine clinical practice, although either sponsored or nonsponsored postmarketing observational experience remains essential for ultimately confirming the effectiveness and tolerability of tedizolid outside clinical trials.

Activity of Antibiotics against Staphylococcus aureus in an In Vitro Model of Biofilms in the Context of Cystic Fibrosis: Influence of the Culture Medium. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2019; 63:AAC.00602-19.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is a highly prevalent pathogen in the respiratory tract of young patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and causes biofilm-related infections. Here, we set up an in vitro model of a biofilm grown in Trypticase soy broth supplemented with glucose and NaCl (TGN) or in artificial sputum medium (ASM) and used it to evaluate on a pharmacodynamic basis the activity of antibiotics used in CF patients and active on staphylococci (meropenem, vancomycin, azithromycin, linezolid, rifampin, ciprofloxacin, tobramycin). Rheological studies showed that ASM was more elastic than viscous, as was also observed for sputa from CF patients, with elastic and viscous moduli being, respectively, similar to and slightly lower than those of CF sputa. Biofilms formed by methicillin-sensitive S. aureus strain ATCC 25923 and methicillin-resistant S. aureus strain ATCC 33591 reached maturity after 24 h, with biomass (measured by crystal violet staining) and metabolic activity (assessed by following resazurin metabolization) being lower in ASM than in TGN and viability (assessed by bacterial counts) being similar in both media. Full concentration-response curves of antibiotics obtained after 24 h of incubation of biofilms showed that all antibiotics were drastically less potent and less efficient in ASM than in TGN toward viability, metabolic activity, and biomass. Tobramycin selected for small-colony variants, specifically in biofilms grown in ASM; the auxotrophism of these variants could not be established. These data highlight the major influence exerted by the culture medium on S. aureus responsiveness to antibiotics in biofilms. The use of ASM may help to determine effective drug concentrations or to evaluate new therapeutic options against biofilms in CF patients.
