RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: The PROspective Cutaneous Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (PROCLIPI) study is a prospective analysis of an international database. Here we examine front-line treatments and quality of life (QoL) in patients with newly diagnosed mycosis fungoides (MF). OBJECTIVES: To identify (i) differences in first-line approaches according to tumour-nodes-metastasis-blood (TNMB) staging; (ii) parameters related to a first-line systemic approach and (iii) response rates and QoL measures. METHODS: In total, 395 newly diagnosed patients with early-stage MF (stage IA-IIA) were recruited from 41 centres in 17 countries between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2018 following central clinicopathological review. RESULTS: The most common first-line therapy was skin-directed therapy (SDT) (322 cases, 81·5%), while a smaller percentage (44 cases, 11·1%) received systemic therapy. Expectant observation was used in 7·3%. In univariate analysis, the use of systemic therapy was significantly associated with higher clinical stage (IA, 6%; IB, 14%; IIA, 20%; IA-IB vs. IIA, P < 0·001), presence of plaques (T1a/T2a, 5%; T1b/T2b, 17%; P < 0·001), higher modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (> 10, 15%; ≤ 10, 7%; P = 0·01) and folliculotropic MF (FMF) (24% vs. 12%, P = 0·001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated significant associations with the presence of plaques (T1b/T2b vs. T1a/T2a, odds ratio 3·07) and FMF (odds ratio 2·83). The overall response rate (ORR) to first-line SDT was 73%, while the ORR to first-line systemic treatments was lower (57%) (P = 0·027). Health-related QoL improved significantly both in patients with responsive disease and in those with stable disease. CONCLUSIONS: Disease characteristics such as presence of plaques and FMF influence physician treatment choices, and SDT was superior to systemic therapy even in patients with such disease characteristics. Consequently, future treatment guidelines for early-stage MF need to address these issues.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: Advanced-stage mycosis fungoides (MF)/Sézary syndrome (SS) patients are weighted by an unfavorable prognosis and share an unmet clinical need of effective treatments. International guidelines are available detailing treatment options for the different stages but without recommending treatments in any particular order due to lack of comparative trials. The aims of this second CLIC study were to retrospectively analyze the pattern of care worldwide for advanced-stage MF/SS patients, the distribution of treatments according to geographical areas (USA versus non-USA), and whether the heterogeneity of approaches has potential impact on survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study included 853 patients from 21 specialist centers (14 European, 4 USA, 1 each Australian, Brazilian, and Japanese). RESULTS: Heterogeneity of treatment approaches was found, with up to 24 different modalities or combinations used as first-line and 36% of patients receiving four or more treatments. Stage IIB disease was most frequently treated by total-skin-electron-beam radiotherapy, bexarotene and gemcitabine; erythrodermic and SS patients by extracorporeal photochemotherapy, and stage IVA2 by polychemotherapy. Significant differences were found between USA and non-USA centers, with bexarotene, photopheresis and histone deacetylase inhibitors most frequently prescribed for first-line treatment in USA while phototherapy, interferon, chlorambucil and gemcitabine in non-USA centers. These differences did not significantly impact on survival. However, when considering death and therapy change as competing risk events and the impact of first treatment line on both events, both monochemotherapy (SHR = 2.07) and polychemotherapy (SHR = 1.69) showed elevated relative risks. CONCLUSION: This large multicenter retrospective study shows that there exist a large treatment heterogeneity in advanced MF/SS and differences between USA and non-USA centers but these were not related to survival, while our data reveal that chemotherapy as first treatment is associated with a higher risk of death and/or change of therapy and thus other therapeutic options should be preferable as first treatment approach.

RÉSUMÉ

In a molecular, microbiologic, and case-control study to describe the epidemiology of ceftazidime-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli bloodstream infection, 32 unique isolates were recovered over 31 months from the blood of patients hospitalized in a 900-bed hospital in Chicago. Multivariate analysis revealed cases occurred more frequently in debilitated nursing home patients with central venous catheters than in younger, healthier patients. Mortality rates were similar for cases and controls. Case-patients were less likely to die if they received appropriate antibiotic treatment within 3 days of bacteremia onset (P = .02). Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis indicated a polyclonal outbreak, with strain-specific temporal and geographic clustering. Isoelectric focusing results suggested that a predominant enzyme, TEM-10, was responsible for the ceftazidime resistance. The resistance gene was usually carried on a large conjugative plasmid. The polyclonality of the resistant strains suggests that ceftazidime resistance due to TEM-10 is now endemic in Chicago.

RÉSUMÉ

Ceftazidime is widely used in the therapy of infectious complications in neutropenic patients. We studied an outbreak of ceftazidime-resistant gram-negative bacillary infections in pediatric cancer patients receiving empirical ceftazidime therapy for neutropenic fever. Fourteen isolates (12 Klebsiella pneumoniae and 2 Escherichia coli) from 13 patients were studied. Specimens were obtained from multiple clinical sites including blood, urine, throat, and lung. The organisms were resistant to ceftazidime, aztreonam, and penicillins but remained susceptible to cephamycins and imipenem. All resistant isolates produced a novel beta-lactamase (TEM-26) with a pI of approximately 5.58, which was transferred by transformation to E. coli on a 7.9-kb nonconjugative plasmid which cotransferred resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. This enzyme readily hydrolyzed ceftazidime, aztreonam, and penicillins in a spectrophotometric assay. DNA sequencing data suggest that TEM-26 is derived from TEM-1.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVES: To study the effect of previously administered antibiotics on the antibiotic susceptibility profile of Enterobacter, the factors affecting mortality, and the emergence of antibiotic resistance during therapy for Enterobacter bacteremia. DESIGN: Prospective, observational study of consecutive patients with Enterobacter bacteremia. SETTING: Three university tertiary care centers, one major university-affiliated hospital, and two university-affiliated Veterans Affairs medical centers. PATIENTS: A total of 129 adult patients were studied. MEASUREMENTS: The two main end points were emergence of resistance during antibiotic therapy and death. MAIN RESULTS: Previous administration of third-generation cephalosporins was more likely to be associated with multiresistant Enterobacter isolates in an initial, positive blood culture (22 of 32, 69%) than was administration of antibiotics that did not include a third-generation cephalosporin (14 of 71, 20%; P less than 0.001). Isolation of multiresistant Enterobacter sp. in the initial blood culture was associated with a higher mortality rate (12 of 37, 32%) than was isolation of a more sensitive Enterobacter sp. (14 of 92, 15%; P = 0.03). Emergence of resistance to third-generation cephalosporin therapy (6 of 31, 19%) occurred more often than did emergence of resistance to aminoglycoside (1 of 89, 0.01%; P = 0.001) or other beta-lactam (0 of 50; P = 0.002) therapy. CONCLUSIONS: More judicious use of third-generation cephalosporins may decrease the incidence of nosocomial multiresistant Enterobacter spp., which in turn may result in a lower mortality for Enterobacter bacteremia. When Enterobacter organisms are isolated from blood, it may be prudent to avoid third-generation cephalosporin therapy regardless of in-vitro susceptibility.

RÉSUMÉ

Carbapenem antibiotics have been shown to penetrate the outer membrane of Pseudomonas aeruginosa through a unique porin protein, OprD2. We mapped the OprD2 gene by conjugation using plasmid FP2 and by transduction using phage F116L. This gene maps between 71 and 75 min on the PAO1 chromosome.

RÉSUMÉ

Two clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae from seriously ill patients in Chicago, Ill., have been identified as resistant to ceftazidime and aztreonam but susceptible to other cephalosporins. This unusual antibiogram was shown to be due to a novel plasmid-mediated beta-lactamase which readily hydrolyzed ceftazidime and aztreonam in addition to penicillins such as piperacillin and carbenicillin. This enzyme and its attendant resistance were transferred to Escherichia coli by conjugation on a 50-kilobase plasmid. Isoelectric focusing revealed a single beta-lactamase band with a molecular weight of 29,000 and an isoelectric point of 5.57 in the resistant isolates and transconjugants. The beta-lactamase inhibitors clavulanic acid and sulbactam restored beta-lactam susceptibility in the resistant isolates. Fifty percent inhibitory concentrations of clavulanic acid and sulbactam were 4.4 and 940 nM, respectively. DNA hybridization studies indicated that this enzyme, designated TEM-10, is related to well-established TEM-type beta-lactamases. However, the TEM-10 enzyme was inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate, in contrast to TEM-2 beta-lactamase. On the basis of substrate and inhibition profiles, the TEM-10 enzyme could be easily discriminated from TEM-5 and RHH-I beta-lactamases.
