Abstract
INTRODUCTION Community-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli have limited oral therapeutic options and pose significant clinical challenges. The goal of this study was to evaluate the in vitro synergy between CFM and AMC against ESBL E. coli with aims to identify an oral treatment option for UTIs. METHODS Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of CFM in the presence of AMC were determined for 46 clinical isolates by placing a CFM Etest on a plate with AMC impregnated in the agar. Isolates with CFM MIC ≤1 µg/ml in the presence of AMC were considered susceptible to the CFM and AMC combination. Five isolates were then selected for further testing using time-kill analysis in the presence of CFM, AMC, and CFM with AMC. Time-kill curves were plotted to determine synergy over 24 hours. RESULTS AMC improved the activity of CFM against ESBL E. coli isolates by 128-fold in the Etest analysis with 85% of tested isolates being susceptible to the combination. Four-fold or greater reduction in CFM MIC was exhibited in 44 of 46 (96%) isolates when in the presence of AMC. Synergy and bactericidal activity between CFM and AMC were exhibited in each of the five isolates tested by time-kill analysis. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION This study found that AMC improves the activity of CFM against ESBL E. coli and that this antibiotic combination has potential as an oral therapeutic option to treat ESBL E. coli UTIs.

Abstract
Infections due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales are an increasingly common problem. For many of these infections, no oral treatment options are available. The activity of amoxicillin-clavulanate combined with ceftibuten or cefpodoxime was evaluated against a group of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates possessing a variety of CTX-M- and SHV-type ESBLs; some possessed blaTEM1 as well. In time-kill studies, the combination of subinhibitory concentrations of amoxicillin-clavulanate with ceftibuten was bactericidal and synergistic for all strains with an amoxicillin-clavulanate MIC ≤32 μg/mL, regardless of the type of ESBL and the cephalosporin minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). The combination with cefpodoxime was also bactericidal and synergistic against all but one of these strains. These combinations were further tested against two strains of K. pneumoniae and one E. coli in a sepsis model using Galleria mellonella larvae. The combination of amoxicillin-clavulanate with ceftibuten demonstrated a synergistic survival benefit against all three strains. The combination with cefpodoxime also improved survival against the two K. pneumoniae strains, but not the E. coli strain. These findings support combining amoxicillin-clavulanate with ceftibuten, and possibly cefpodoxime, for the treatment of infections due to ESBL producers and suggest that having an amoxicillin-clavulanate MIC of 32 μg/mL or less may predict activity at clinically achievable concentrations. Clinical studies are warranted to further evaluate this therapeutic approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oral treatment of febrile urinary tract infections (FUTIs) can be impaired by MDR Enterobacterales often combining ESBL and inhibitor-resistant genes. We studied the impact of β-lactamases and Enterobacterales' genotypes on the cefixime, cefpodoxime and mecillinam ± amoxicillin/clavulanate MICs. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicentric study, we included 251 previously whole-genome-sequenced ESBL-producing Enterobacterales, isolated in French children with FUTIs. The MICs of cefixime, cefpodoxime, mecillinam alone and combined with amoxicillin/clavulanate were determined and analysed with respect to genomic data. We focused especially on the isolates' ST and their type of β-lactamases. Clinical outcomes of patients who received cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate were also analysed. RESULTS All isolates were cefixime and cefpodoxime resistant. Disparities depending on blaCTX-M variants were observed for cefixime. The addition of amoxicillin/clavulanate restored susceptibility for cefixime and cefpodoxime in 97.2% (MIC50/90 of 0.38/0.75 mg/L) and 55.4% (MIC50/90 of 1/2 mg/L) of isolates, respectively, whatever the ST, the blaCTX-M variants or the association with inhibitor-resistant β-lactamases (34.2%). All isolates were susceptible to mecillinam + amoxicillin/clavulanate with MIC50/90 of 0.19/0.25 mg/L, respectively. Neither therapeutic failure nor any subsequent positive control urine culture were reported for patients who received cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate as an oral relay therapy (n = 54). CONCLUSIONS Despite the frequent association of ESBL genes with inhibitor-resistant β-lactamases, the cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate MICs remain low. The in vivo efficacy of this combination was satisfying even when first-line treatment was ineffective. Considering the MIC distributions and pharmacokinetic parameters, mecillinam + amoxicillin/clavulanate should also be an alternative to consider when treating FUTIs in children.

Abstract
Objectives We need studies assessing therapeutic options for oral relay in febrile urinary tract infection (FUTI) due to ESBL–producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) in children. Amoxicillin-clavulanate/cefixime (AC-cefixime) combination seems to be a suitable option. We sought to describe the risk of recurrence at 1 month after the end of treatment for FUTI due to ESBL-E according to the oral relay therapy used. Materials and methods We retrospectively identified children <18 years who were included in a previous prospective observational multicentric study on managing FUTI due to ESBL-E between 2014 and 2017 in France. We collected whether children who received cotrimoxazole, ciprofloxacin or the AC-cefixime combination as the oral relay therapy reported a recurrence within the first month after the end of treatment. Then, we analyzed the susceptibility drug-testing of the strains involved. Results We included 199 children who received an oral relay therapy with cotrimoxazole (n = 72, 36.2%), ciprofloxacin (n = 38, 19.1%) or the AC-cefixime combination (n = 89, 44.7%). Nine (4.5%) patients had a recurrence within the first month after the end of treatment, with no difference between the 3 groups of oral relay (p = 0.8): 4 (5.6%) cotrimoxazole, 2 (5.3%) ciprofloxacin and 3 (3.4%) AC-cefixime combination. Phenotype characterization of 249 strains responsible for FUTI due to ESBL-E showed that 97.6% were susceptible to the AC-cefixime combination. Conclusions The AC-cefixime combination represents an interesting therapeutic option for oral relay treatment of FUTI due to ESBL-E as the recurrence rate at 1 month after the end of treatment was the same when compared to cotrimoxazole and ciprofloxacin.

Abstract
ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae as uropathogens have given rise to a sizeable amount of global morbidity. Community and hospital surveillance studies continue to report increasing proportions of these organisms as causes of urinary tract infection (UTI). Due to limited treatment options and the presence of cross-resistance amongst oral antibiotics of different classes, patients often require IV therapy, thereby increasing healthcare costs and reducing the effectiveness of delivering healthcare. Oral cephalosporin antibiotics are well known for their ability to achieve high urinary concentrations, in addition to achieving clinical success for treatment of uncomplicated UTI with a drug-susceptible pathogen. Novel cephalosporin/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations have been developed and demonstrate good in vitro activity against ESBL-producing isolates. A pooled analysis of in vitro activity of existing oral cephalosporin/clavulanate combinations in ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae has shown MIC50s of 0.5-1, 0.125-1 and 0.25 mg/L for cefpodoxime, ceftibuten and cefixime, respectively. A novel cyclic boronic acid β-lactamase inhibitor, QPX7728, was able to produce MIC50 values of 0.5 and ≤0.06 mg/L when paired with cefpodoxime and ceftibuten, respectively. Other novel combinations, cefpodoxime/ETX0282 and ceftibuten/VNRX7145, have also demonstrated excellent activity against ESBL producers. Clinical trials are now awaited.

Abstract
Background: Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) is increasing worldwide. The drugs of choice for treatment of ESBLs are parenteral carbapenems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of a new combination of oral cephalosporins and amoxicillin/clavulanate in treatment of ESBL-EC. Methods: A total of 150 ESBL-EC samples were collected over 1 year from two referral centers. Synergistic studies of cephalosporins and amoxicillin/clavulanate were performed in vitro using disk approximation and disk replacement methods. Combination treatment was assessed in vivo on 20 ESBL-EC urinary tract infection (UTI) patients. Results: ESBL-EC isolates were confirmed in 150 patients with a mean age of 46.67 years, 75.2% of them being women. Antibiotic susceptibility testing of isolates indicated high resistance rate to oral antibiotics. The frequency of positive synergy and mean distance of synergy between cephalosporins and amoxicillin/clavulanate was significantly higher with cefotaxime and cefixime compared with cefpodoxime, cefdinir, and ceftazidime using disk approximation and disk replacement methods (p < 0.05). Addition of amoxicillin/clavulanate enhanced the susceptibility rate with cefixime from 8.6% to 86.3%, significantly higher than with other cephalosporins (p < 0.0005). Cefixime and amoxicillin/clavulanate synergy was not affected by age, gender, hospital, department, sample type, or bacterial load. Eighteen of 20 ESBL-EC-positive UTI patients had a positive in vitro synergy test and complete clinical and microbiological resolution after completion of cefixime and amoxicillin/clavulanate oral treatment course. Conclusions: Cefixime and amoxicillin/clavulanate combination therapy could be an effective oral outpatient treatment option for ESBL-EC. In vitro synergistic testing is simple and predictive of successful treatment.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and bacteriological effect of oral treatment with ceftibuten plus amoxicillin-clavulanic acid in patients with a urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by an extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing micro-organism. In this retrospective observational case-series, oral treatment with ceftibuten 400 mg QD plus amoxicillin-clavulanic acid 625 mg TID for 14 days was evaluated in ten patients with pyelonephritis caused by an ESBL-positive micro-organism resistant to ciprofloxacin and co-trimoxazole. Presence of ESBL genes was confirmed using PCR and micro-array. EUCAST breakpoints were used for susceptibility testing. Ten patients (five women) were evaluated in 2016 and 2017. Six patients were from outpatient hospital care, and four from primary care. Urinary cultures yielded seven E. coli and three K. pneumoniae ESBL-positive isolates. Using Vitek-2, all isolates were resistant to cefotaxime, and resistant (n = 7) or intermediately susceptible (n = 3) to ceftazidime. With disc diffusion, all isolates were susceptible to ceftibuten (zones 25-32 mm), while with MIC test strips eight of ten isolates were resistant to ceftibuten (MICs 0.5-4 mg/L). An amoxicillin-clavulanic acid disc next to the ceftibuten disc extended the ceftibuten zone by 2-8 mm. All patients experienced clinical cure. Bacteriological cure (absence of pretreatment micro-organism in the first follow-up culture obtained within 3 months after treatment) was observed in all eight patients with follow-up cultures. This case-series shows that the synergistic combination of ceftibuten plus amoxicillin-clavulanic acid may be an option for oral treatment of UTIs caused by ESBL producing E. coli or K. pneumoniae.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli are currently common in community-onset infections, limiting therapeutic options. In this work we aim to identify the prevalence of and risk factors for ESBL-producing E. coli in elderly patients with urinary tract infections (UTI) admitted to hospital. METHODS Prospective cohort study on elderly patients with E. coli UTI admitted to a university hospital in Spain, from January 2013 to December 2015. Clinical features, microbiology and outcomes were recorded from the electronic medical records and reviewed by two researchers. Cases were segregated according to ESBL-producing E. coli. Risk factors for ESBL-producing E. coli were analysed by multivariate analysis. RESULTS The prevalence of ESBL-producing E. coli was 27.4% (85/310). Healthcare-associated UTI was the only risk factor for ESBL-producing E. coli (OR 6.79; 95% CI 3.22-14.31, P < .001) by multivariate analysis. ESBL-producing E. coli was 43.9% in the healthcare-associated UTI group and 8.9% in the community-acquired UTI group (P < .001). Inadequate empirical antibiotic therapy and length of stay in hospital were higher in the ESBL-producing E. coli group than in the non-ESBL-producing E. coli group (62.3% vs 5.3% and 6.60 ± 3.69 days vs 5.61 ± 3.16 days, respectively). Mortality was not significantly different between groups (13% in ESBL-producing E. coli group vs 7.5% in non-ESBL-producing E. coli group, P = .140). SUMMARY Healthcare-associated UTI was a risk factor for ESBL-producing E. coli in elderly patients with UTI admitted to hospital. Our results might help clinicians in choosing empirical antibiotics in an overall high rate setting of ESBL-producing E. coli.
