ABSTRACT
The in vitro activities of gepotidacin and comparator agents against 3,560 Escherichia coli and 344 Staphylococcus saprophyticus collected from female (81.1%) and male (18.9%) patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs) in a global prospective surveillance program in 2019 to 2020 were determined. Isolates collected from 92 medical centers in 25 countries, including the United States, Europe, Latin America, and Japan, were tested for susceptibility by reference methods in a central monitoring laboratory. Gepotidacin inhibited 98.0% (3,488/3,560 isolates) of E. coli and 100% (344/344 isolates) of S. saprophyticus at gepotidacin concentrations of ≤4 µg/mL and ≤0.25 µg/mL, respectively. This activity was largely unaffected with isolates that demonstrated resistance phenotypes to other oral standard-of-care antibiotics, including amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones, fosfomycin, nitrofurantoin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Gepotidacin also inhibited 94.3% (581/616 isolates) of E. coli isolates with an extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing phenotype, 97.2% (1,085/1,129 isolates) of E. coli isolates resistant to ciprofloxacin, 96.1% (874/899) of E. coli isolates resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and 96.3% (235/244 isolates) of multidrug-resistant E. coli isolates at gepotidacin concentrations of ≤4 µg/mL. In summary, gepotidacin demonstrated potent activity against a large collection of contemporary UTI E. coli and S. saprophyticus strains collected from patients worldwide. These data support the further clinical development of gepotidacin as a potential treatment option for patients with uncomplicated UTIs.
