ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In vitro and in vivo activity of daptomycin alone or plus either cloxacillin or fosfomycin compared with cloxacillin alone and cloxacillin plus gentamicin were evaluated in a rabbit model of MSSA experimental endocarditis (EE).METHODS:
Five MSSA strains were used in the in vitro time-kill studies at standard (105-106 cfu/mL) and high (108 cfu/mL) inocula. In the in vivo EE model, the following antibiotic combinations were evaluated cloxacillin (2 g/4 h) alone or combined with gentamicin (1 mg/kg/8 h) or daptomycin (6 mg/kg once daily); and daptomycin (6 mg/kg/day) alone or combined with fosfomycin (2 g/6 h).RESULTS:
At standard and high inocula, daptomycin plus fosfomycin or cloxacillin were bactericidal against 4/5 and 5/5 strains, respectively, while cloxacillin plus gentamicin was bactericidal against 3/5 strains at standard inocula but against none at high inocula. Fosfomycin, cloxacillin, gentamicin and daptomycin MIC/MBCs of the MSSA-678 strain used in the EE model were 8/64, 0.25/0.5, 0.25/0.5 and 1/8 mg/L, respectively. Adding gentamicin to cloxacillin significantly reduced bacterial density in vegetations compared with cloxacillin monotherapy (P = 0.026). Adding fosfomycin or cloxacillin to daptomycin [10/11 (93%) and 8/11 (73%), respectively] significantly improved the efficacy of daptomycin in sterilizing vegetations [0/11 (0%), P < 0.001 for both combinations] and showed better activity than cloxacillin alone [0/10 (0%), P < 0.001 for both combinations] and cloxacillin plus gentamicin [3/10 (30%), P = 0.086 for cloxacillin plus daptomycin and P = 0.008 for fosfomycin plus daptomycin]. No recovered isolates showed increased daptomycin MIC.CONCLUSIONS:
The addition of cloxacillin or fosfomycin to daptomycin is synergistic and rapidly bactericidal, showing better activity than cloxacillin plus gentamicin for treating MSSA EE, supporting their clinical use.
