RESUMEN

The Japanese surveillance committee conducted a third nationwide surveillance of antimicrobial susceptibility of acute uncomplicated cystitis at 55 facilities throughout Japan between April 2020 and September 2021. In this surveillance, we investigated the susceptibility of Escherichia coli (E. coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), and Staphylococcus saprophyticus (S. saprophyticus) for various antimicrobial agents by isolating and culturing bacteria from urine samples. In total, 823 strains were isolated from 848 patients and 569 strains of target bacteria, including E. coli (n = 529, 92.9 %), K. pneumoniae (n = 28, 4.9 %), and S. saprophyticus (n = 12, 2.2 %) were isolated. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of 18 antibacterial agents were determined according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute manual. In premenopausal patients, there were 31 (10.5 %) and 20 (6.8 %) fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant E. coli and extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli, respectively. On the other hand, in postmenopausal patients, there were 75 (32.1 %) and 36 (15.4 %) FQ-resistant E. coli and ESBL-producing E. coli, respectively. The rate of FQ-resistant E. coli and ESBL-producing E. coli in post-menopausal women was higher than that for our previous nationwide surveillance (20.7 % and 32.1 %: p = 0.0004, 10.0 % and 15.4 %; p = 0.0259). For pre-menopausal women, there was no significant difference in the rate of FQ-resistant E. coli and ESBL-producing E. coli between this and previous reports, but the frequency of FQ-resistant E. coli and ESBL-producing E. coli exhibited a gradual increase. For appropriate antimicrobial agent selection and usage, it is essential for clinicians to be aware of the high rate of these antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in acute uncomplicated cystitis in Japan.

RESUMEN

We performed an investigative and clinical study of docetaxel, and evaluated its efficacy against hormone-refractory prostate carcinoma (HRPC). In an in vitro experiment, docetaxel suppressed the human prostate cell line proliferation not only in an androgen-dependent cell line, LNCaP, but also in androgen-independent cell line, PC-3, in a dose-dependent manner. In an in vivo experiment applying an SCID mouse xenograft model with PC-3, docetaxel administration suppressed the tumor growth more than 95%. In a clinical study, eight cases were enrolled to low-dose (20 mg/m2/wk) weekly regimen and an other eight to high-dose (60 mg/m2/wk) administration of docetaxel every three weeks. A prostate specific antigen (PSA) decline of more than 50% were observed in 4 (50%) in the low-dose group and 5 (63%) in the high-dose group. The median time to progression and overall survival were 8.5 and 13.2 months in the low-dose group and more than 5.5 and 8.5 months in the high-dose one, respectively. This regimen was well tolerated, and the incidence of adverse effect was relatively low and light. Grade 3 neutropenia or leukocytopenia without fever was seen in three patients (18.8%). Only one patient required administration of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor because of neutropenia. No other grade 3 or 4 toxicity was observed. In conclusion, docetaxel-based chemotherapy was well tolerated and an active treatment for HRPC cases.
