Comparison of Tigecycline or Cefoperazone/Sulbactam therapy for bloodstream infection due to Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

ABSTRACT: Background:We retrospectively analyzed the effect of tigecycline and cefoperazone/sulbactam therapies on the prognosis of patients with carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection (CRAB-BSI). Methods:CRAB-BSI patients receiving tigecycline therapy or cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy between January 2012 and December 2017 was enrolled, and strict exclusion criteria were followed. The 28-day mortality of patients was analyzed. The impact of cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy on prognosis was evaluated using Cox multivariate regression analysis. The 28-day mortality of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam monotherapy and cefoperazone/sulbactam-based combination therapy was also compared. Results:Three hundred forty eight patients with CRAB-BSI were enrolled in the study. Two hundred ten patients were included after applying the exclusion criteria. Of these, 135 patients received tigecycline therapy and 75 patients received cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy. The 28-day mortality of patients in the latter group was, significantly lower than that of the tigecycline group [29.3% vs. 51.9%; P?=?0.001]. Cox multivariate regression analysis revealed that cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy exerted a protective effect on the prognosis of patients [hazard ratio 0.566, 95% confidence interval (0.342-0.940); P?=?0.028]. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis indicated that the 28-day mortality of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy was lower than that of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam monotherapy, but the difference was not significant (22.2% vs. 40%; P?=?0.074). However, the mortality of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam with imipenem/cilastatin was significantly lower than that of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam monotherapy (P?=?0.048). Conclusions:Patients treated with cefoperazone/sulbactam therapy had a better clinical outcome. The mortality of patients receiving cefoperazone/sulbactam with imipenem/cilastatin seems to be the lowest.

Project description:Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is a Priority 1 (Critical) pathogen urgently requiring new antibiotics. Polymyxins are a last-line option against CRAB-associated infections. This transcriptomic study utilized a CRAB strain to investigate mechanisms of bacterial killing with polymyxin B, colistin, colistin B and colistin/sulbactam combination therapy. After 4 h of 2 mg/L polymyxin monotherapy, all polymyxins exhibited common modes of action which primarily involved disruption to amino acid and fatty acid metabolism. Of the three monotherapies, polymyxin B induced the greatest number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including for genes involved with fatty acid metabolism. Gene disturbances with colistin and colistin B were highly similar (89% common genes for colistin B), though effects on gene expression were generally lower (0-1.5-fold in most cases) with colistin B. Colistin alone (2 mg/L) or combined with sulbactam (64 mg/L) resulted in rapid membrane disruption as early as 1 h. Transcriptomic analysis of this combination revealed the effects were driven by colistin and included disturbances in fatty acid synthesis and catabolism and inhibition of nutrient uptake. Combination therapy produced substantially higher fold changes in 72% of DEGs shared with monotherapy, resulting in substantially greater reductions in fatty acid biosynthesis and increases in biofilm, cell wall and phospholipid synthesis. This indicates synergistic bacterial killing with the colistin/sulbactam combination results from a systematic increase in perturbation of many genes associated with bacterial metabolism. These mechanistic insights enhance our understanding of bacterial responses to polymyxin mono- and combination therapy and will assist to optimize polymyxin use in patients.
