In vitro activity of ceftaroline against community-associated methicillin-resistant, vancomycin-intermediate, vancomycin-resistant, and daptomycin-nonsusceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates.

چکیده
This study assessed the in vitro activities of ceftaroline and five comparator agents against a collection of Staphylococcus aureus isolates. Ceftaroline demonstrated potent activity against community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) isolates and showed bactericidal activity against vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA), vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA), heteroresistant VISA (hVISA), and daptomycin-nonsusceptible S. aureus (DNSSA) isolates. Ceftaroline may represent a bactericidal treatment option for infections caused by these pathogens.

Antimicrobial Activity of Ceftaroline Tested against Staphylococci with Reduced Susceptibility
Vancomycin, linezolid, and daptomycin are very active against staphylococci, but isolates with decreased susceptibility to these antimicrobial agents are isolated sporadically. A total of 19,350 Staphylococcus aureus isolates (51% methicillin resistant [MRSA]) and 3,270 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) were collected consecutively from 82 U.S. medical centers from January 2008 to Decembe...

متن کاملEvaluation of ceftaroline, vancomycin, daptomycin, or ceftaroline plus daptomycin against daptomycin-nonsusceptible methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in an in vitro pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model of simulated endocardial vegetations.
Infective endocarditis (IE) caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with reduced susceptibility to vancomycin and daptomycin has few adequate therapeutic options. Ceftaroline (CPT) is bactericidal against daptomycin (DAP)-nonsusceptible (DNS) and vancomycin-intermediate MRSA, but supporting data are limited for IE. This study evaluated the activities of ceftaroline, vancomy...

OBJECTIVES To examine the activity of ceftaroline against reduced-vancomycin-susceptible MRSA isolates. METHODS One-hundred and three MRSA blood culture isolates (predominantly ST239-MRSA-III), with varying vancomycin phenotypes, had their ceftaroline MICs determined by broth microdilution and MIC Evaluator strip (Oxoid-Thermo Fisher). Statistical analyses were performed that examined relatio...

LTX-109 and eight other antimicrobial agents were evaluated against 155 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates, including strains resistant to vancomycin and strains with decreased susceptibility to daptomycin and linezolid, by microdilution tests to determine MICs. Time-kill assays were performed against representative MRSA, vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA), and va...
