RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) is committed to providing up-to-date guidance on the treatment of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) infections. This guidance document focuses on infections caused by extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E), AmpC ß- lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (AmpC-E), carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), Pseudomonas aeruginosa with difficult-to-treat resistance (DTR P. aeruginosa), carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. This updated document replaces previous versions of the guidance document. METHODS: A panel of six infectious diseases specialists with expertise in managing antimicrobial- resistant infections formulated questions about the treatment of infections caused by ESBL-E, AmpC-E, CRE, DTR P. aeruginosa, CRAB, and S. maltophilia. Because of differences in the epidemiology of AMR and availability of specific anti-infectives internationally, this document focuses on the treatment of AMR infections in the United States. RESULTS: Preferred and alternative suggested treatment approaches are provided with accompanying rationales, assuming the causative organism has been identified and antibiotic susceptibility results are known. Approaches to empiric treatment, transitioning to oral therapy, duration of therapy, and other management considerations are discussed briefly. Suggested approaches apply for both adult and pediatric populations, although suggested antibiotic dosages are provided only for adults. CONCLUSIONS: The field of AMR is highly dynamic. Consultation with an infectious diseases specialist is recommended for the treatment of AMR infections. This document is current as of December 31, 2023 and will be updated periodically. The most current version of this document, including date of publication, is available at www.idsociety.org/practice-guideline/amr-guidance/.
RESUMEN
In a propensity-score-weighted cohort of 183 adults with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales bacteremia at 24 US hospitals, patients receiving short courses of active therapy (7-10 days, median 9 days) experienced similar odds of recurrent bacteremia or death within 30 days as those receiving prolonged courses of active therapy (14-21 days, median 14 days).

BACKGROUND: The treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii/calcoaceticus complex (CRAB) presents significant treatment challenges. METHODS: We report the case of a 42-year-old woman with CRAB meningitis who experienced persistently positive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cultures for 13 days despite treatment with high-dose ampicillin-sulbactam and cefiderocol. On day 13, she was transitioned to sulbactam-durlobactam and meropenem; four subsequent CSF cultures remained negative. After 14 days of sulbactam-durlobactam, she was cured of infection. Whole genome sequencing investigations identified putative mechanisms that contributed to reduced cefiderocol susceptibility observed during cefiderocol therapy. Blood and CSF samples were collected pre-dose and 3-hours post initiation of a sulbactam-durlobactam infusion. RESULTS: The CRAB isolate belonged to sequence type 2. An acquired blaOXA-23 and an intrinsic blaOXA-51-like (i.e., blaOXA-66) carbapenemase gene were identified. The paradoxical effect (i.e., no growth at lower cefiderocol dilutions but growth at higher dilutions) was observed by broth microdilution after 8 days of cefiderocol exposure but not by disk diffusion. Potential markers of resistance to cefiderocol included mutations in the start codon of piuA and piuC iron transport genes and a A515V substitution in PBP3, the primary target of cefiderocol. Sulbactam and durlobactam were detected in CSF at both timepoints, indicating CSF penetration. CONCLUSIONS: This case describes successful treatment of refractory CRAB meningitis with the administration of sulbactam-durlobactam and meropenem and highlights the need to be cognizant of the paradoxical effect that can be observed with broth microdilution testing of CRAB isolates with cefiderocol.

RESUMEN
Metallo-ß-lactamases (MBLs) have evolved relatively rapidly to become an international public health threat. There are no clinically available ß-lactamase inhibitors with activity against MBLs. This may change with the introduction of cefepime-taniborbactam. Herein, we review three manuscripts (S. I. Drusin, C. Le Terrier, L. Poirel, R. A. Bonomo, et al., Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e01168-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.01168-23; C. Le Terrier, C. Viguier, P. Nordmann, A. J. Vila, and L. Poirel, Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e00991-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.00991-23; D. Ono, M. F. Mojica, C. R. Bethel, Y. Ishii, et al., Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e01332-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.01332-23) in which investigators describe elegant experiments to explore MBL/taniborbactam interactions and modifications to MBLs, in response, to reduce the affinity of taniborbactam. Challenges with MBL inhibition will not disappear; rather, they will evolve commensurate with advancements in medicinal chemistry.

BACKGROUND: Patients infected with difficult-to-treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa are likely to receive meropenem (MEM) empirically before escalation to ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T). We assessed whether pre-exposure to MEM affected C/T resistance development on C/T exposure. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nine clinical P. aeruginosa isolates were exposed to MEM 16â mg/L for 72â h. Then, isolates were serially passaged in the presence of C/T (concentration of 10â mg/L) for 72â h as two groups: an MEM-exposed group inoculated with MEM pre-exposed isolates and a non-MEM control group. At 24â h intervals, samples were plated on drug-free and drug-containing agar (C/T concentration 16/8â mg/L) and incubated to quantify bacterial densities (log10 cfu/mL). Growth on C/T agar indicated resistance development, and resistant population was calculated by dividing the cfu/mL on C/T plates by the cfu/mL on drug-free agar. RESULTS: At 72â h, resistant populations were detected in 6/9 isolates. In five isolates, MEM exposure significantly increased the prevalence of ceftolozane/tazobactam-resistance development; the percentages of resistance population were 100%, 100%, 53.5%, 31% and 3% for the MEM-exposed versus 0%, 0%, 2%, 0.35% and ≤0.0003% in the unexposed groups. One isolate had a similar resistant population at 72â h between the two groups. The remaining isolates showed no development of resistance, regardless of previous MEM exposure. CONCLUSIONS: MEM exposure may pre-dispose to C/T resistance development and thus limit the therapeutic utility of this ß-lactam/ß-lactamase inhibitor. Resistance may be a result of stress exposure or molecular-level mutations conferring cross-resistance. Further in vivo studies are needed to assess clinical implications of these findings.

PURPOSE: Cefepime is recommended for treating infections caused by AmpC beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (AmpC-PE), though supporting evidence is limited. Therefore, this study compared outcomes associated with cefepime versus carbapenem therapy for bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by AmpC-PE after phenotypic exclusion of ESBL-co-producing isolates. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study compared definite cefepime versus carbapenem treatment for AmpC-PE BSI in hospitalized patients of the University Hospital Basel, Switzerland, between 01/2015 and 07/2020. Primary outcomes included in-hospital death, renal impairment and neurologic adverse events; secondary outcomes included length of hospital stay and recurrent infection. RESULTS: Two hundred and seventy episodes of AmpC-PE BSI were included, 162, 77 and 31 were treated with a carbapenem, cefepime and other antibiotics, respectively. Patients treated with carbapenems were more likely to be transferred to the ICU on admission and more frequently had central venous catheter as a source of infection. In uni- and multivariable analyses, primary and secondary outcomes did not differ between the two treatment groups, except for more frequent occurrence of neurological adverse events among patients treated with carbapenems and shorter length of hospital stay among survivors treated with cefepime. CONCLUSION: After excluding isolates with phenotypic ESBL-co-production, cefepime was not associated with adverse outcomes compared to carbapenems when used to treat BSIs caused by AmpC-PE. Our study provides evidence to support the use of cefepime as a safe treatment strategy for AmpC-PE BSI, particularly in clinically stable patients without initial renal impairment or increased susceptibility to neurological adverse events.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex (CRAB) is one of the top-priority pathogens for new antibiotic development. Unlike other antibiotic-resistant threats, none of the available therapies have been shown to consistently reduce mortality or improve patient outcomes in clinical trials. Antibiotic combination therapy is routinely used in clinical practice; however, the preferred combination has not been defined. This narrative review focuses on evidence-based solutions for the treatment of invasive CRAB infections. We dissect the promise and perils of traditional agents used in combination, such as colistin, sulbactam, and the tetracyclines, and offer clinical pearls based on our interpretation of the available data. Next, we investigate the merits of newly developed ß-lactam agents like cefiderocol and sulbactam-durlobactam, which have demonstrated contrasting results in recent randomized clinical trials. The review concludes with the authors' perspective on the evolving treatment landscape for CRAB infections, which is complicated by limited clinical data, imperfect treatment options, and a need for future clinical trials. We propose that effective treatment for CRAB infections requires a personalized approach that incorporates host factors, the site of infection, pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic principles, local molecular epidemiology of CRAB isolates, and careful interpretation of antibiotic susceptibility testing results. In most clinical scenarios, a dose-optimized, sulbactam-based regimen is recommended with the addition of at least one other in vitro active agent. Should sulbactam-durlobactam receive regulatory approval, recommendations will need to be re-evaluated with the most recent evidence.

Piperacillin-tazobactam (PTZ) is one of the most common antibiotics administered to hospitalized patients. Its broad activity against gram-negative, gram-positive, and anaerobic pathogens; efficacy in clinical trials across diverse infection types and patient populations; and generally favorable toxicity profile make it a particularly appealing antibiotic agent. PTZ susceptibility interpretive criteria (ie, breakpoints) for the Enterobacterales were initially established in 1992, as the drug was undergoing approval by the US Food and Drug Administration. In the ensuing 30 years, changes in the molecular epidemiology of the Enterobacterales and its impact on PTZ susceptibility testing, mounting pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data generated from sophisticated techniques such as population pharmacokinetic modeling and Monte Carlo simulation, and disturbing safety signals in a large clinical trial prompted the Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute (CLSI) to review available evidence to determine the need for revision of the PTZ breakpoints for Enterobacterales. After an extensive literature review and formal voting process, the susceptibility criteria were revised in the 2022 CLSI M100 document to the following: ≤8/4 µg/mL (susceptible), 16/4 µg/mL (susceptible dose-dependent), and ≥32/4 µg/mL (resistant). Herein, we provide a brief overview of the CLSI process of antibiotic breakpoint revisions and elaborate on the available data that ultimately led to the decision to revise the PTZ breakpoints.

BACKGROUND: There are limited US data assessing adherence to surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis guidelines, particularly across a large, nationwide sample. Moreover, commonly prescribed inappropriate antimicrobial prophylaxis regimens remain unknown, hindering improvement initiatives. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults who underwent elective craniotomy, hip replacement, knee replacement, spinal procedure, or hernia repair in 2019-2020 at hospitals in the PINC AI (Premier) Healthcare Database. We evaluated adherence of prophylaxis regimens, with respect to antimicrobial agents endorsed in the American Society of Health-System Pharmacist guidelines, accounting for patient antibiotic allergy and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization status. We used multivariable logistic regression with random effects by hospital to evaluate associations between patient, procedural, and hospital characteristics and guideline adherence. RESULTS: Across 825 hospitals and 521 091 inpatient elective surgeries, 308 760 (59%) were adherent to prophylaxis guidelines. In adjusted analysis, adherence varied significantly by US Census division (adjusted OR [aOR] range: .61-1.61) and was significantly lower in 2020 compared with 2019 (aOR: .92; 95% CI: .91-.94; P < .001). The most common reason for nonadherence was unnecessary vancomycin use. In a post hoc analysis, controlling for patient age, comorbidities, other nephrotoxic agent use, and patient and procedure characteristics, patients receiving cefazolin plus vancomycin had 19% higher odds of acute kidney injury (AKI) compared with patients receiving cefazolin alone (aOR: 1.19; 95% CI: 1.11-1.27; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Adherence to antimicrobial prophylaxis guidelines remains suboptimal, largely driven by unnecessary vancomycin use, which may increase the risk of AKI. Adherence decreased in the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Empiric antibiotic use among hospitalized adults in the United States (US) is largely undescribed. Identifying factors associated with broad-spectrum empiric therapy may inform antibiotic stewardship interventions and facilitate benchmarking. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of adults discharged in 2019 from 928 hospitals in the Premier Healthcare Database. "Empiric" gram-negative antibiotics were defined by administration before day 3 of hospitalization. Multivariable logistic regression models with random effects by hospital were used to evaluate associations between patient and hospital characteristics and empiric receipt of broad-spectrum, compared to narrow-spectrum, gram-negative antibiotics. RESULTS: Of 8 017 740 hospitalized adults, 2 928 657 (37%) received empiric gram-negative antibiotics. Among 1 781 306 who received broad-spectrum therapy, 30% did not have a common infectious syndrome present on admission (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, sepsis, or bacteremia), surgery, or an intensive care unit stay in the empiric window. Holding other factors constant, males were 22% more likely (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.22 [95% confidence interval, 1.22-1.23]), and all non-White racial groups 6%-13% less likely (aOR range, 0.87-0.94), to receive broad-spectrum therapy. There were significant prescribing differences by region, with the highest adjusted odds of broad-spectrum therapy in the US West South Central division. Even after model adjustment, there remained substantial interhospital variability: Among patients receiving empiric therapy, the probability of receiving broad-spectrum antibiotics varied as much as 34+ percentage points due solely to the admitting hospital (95% interval of probabilities: 43%-77%). CONCLUSIONS: Empiric gram-negative antibiotic use is highly variable across US regions, and there is high, unexplained interhospital variability. Sex and racial disparities in the receipt of broad-spectrum therapy warrant further investigation.

BACKGROUND: Investigations into antibiotics for extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) bloodstream infections (BSIs) have focused on blaCTX-M genes. Outcomes of patients with non-CTX-M-producing ESBL-E BSIs and optimal treatment are unknown. METHODS: A multicenter observational study investigating 500 consecutive patients with ceftriaxone-resistant Enterobacterales BSIs during 2018-2022 was conducted. Broth microdilution and whole genome sequencing confirmed antibiotic susceptibilities and ESBL gene presence, respectively. Inverse probability weighting (IPW) using propensity scores was employed to ensure patients infected with non-CTX-M and CTX-M ESBL-E BSIs were similar prior to evaluation of outcomes. RESULTS: 396 patients (79.2%) were confirmed to have an ESBL-E BSI. ESBL gene family prevalence was as follows: blaCTX-M (n=370), blaSHV (n=16), blaOXY (n=12), and blaVEB (n=5). ESBL gene identification was not limited to Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species. In the IPW cohort, there was no difference in 30-day mortality or ESBL-E infection recurrence between the non-CTX-M and CTX-M groups (OR=.99, 95% CI 0.87-1.11; p=0.83) and (OR=1.10, 95% CI 0.85--1.42; p=0.47), respectively. In an exploratory analysis limited to the non-CTX-M group, 86% of the 21 patients receiving meropenem were alive on day 30; none of the 5 patients receiving piperacillin-tazobactam were alive on day 30. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that non-CTX-M and CTX-M ESBL-producing Enterobacterales BSIs are equally concerning and associated with similar clinical outcomes. Meropenem may be associated with improved survival in patients with non-CTX-M ESBL-E BSIs, underscoring the potential benefit of comprehensive molecular diagnostics to enable early antibiotic optimization for patients with ESBL-E BSI, beyond just blaCTX-M genes.
