چکیده

Oritavancin exhibited in vitro activity against 169 strains of vancomycin-susceptible, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with MICs ranging from 0.03 to 1 μg/ml and against vancomycin-intermediate MRSA (VISA; n = 29), heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate MRSA (hVISA; n = 5), and vancomycin-resistant MRSA (n = 5) strains, with MICs ranging from 0.12 to 4 μg/ml. For 10 MRSA isolates comprising 5 VISA and 5 hVISA strains, synergy between oritavancin and gentamicin, linezolid, or rifampin was observed against most of the strains tested using a time-kill method.

Assessment by time-kill methodology of the synergistic effects of oritavancin in combination with other antimicrobial agents against Staphylococcus aureus.

Oritavancin is a semisynthetic lipoglycopeptide in clinical development for serious gram-positive infections. This study describes the synergistic activity of oritavancin in combination with gentamicin, linezolid, moxifloxacin, or rifampin in time-kill studies against methicillin-susceptible, vancomycin-intermediate, and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Antistaphylococcal activity of dalbavancin, an experimental glycopeptide.

Dalbavancin, tested against 146 staphylococci, was more potent than other drugs tested, with an MIC at which 50% of staphylococci were inhibited of 0.03 microg/ml and an MIC at which 90% of staphylococci were inhibited of 0.06 microg/ml by microdilution. For all strains, MICs of vancomycin, linezolid, ranbezolid, oritavancin, daptomycin, and quinupristin-dalfopristin were </=4.0 microg/ml. Dalb...

Antistaphylococcal activity of LBM415, a new peptide deformylase inhibitor, compared with those of other agents.

The MICs of LBM415, a new peptide diformylase inhibitor, were </=0.06 to 4.0 microg/ml for 258 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci. LBM415 MICs were similar irrespective of whether the strains were methicillin susceptible or resistant. All strains were also susceptible to vancomycin, linezolid, ranbezolid, daptomycin, oritavancin, and quinupristin-dalfopristin...

Intracellular activity of antibiotics in a model of human THP-1 macrophages infected by a Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variant strain isolated from a cystic fibrosis patient: study of antibiotic combinations.

In a companion paper (H. A. Nguyen et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 53:1434-1442, 2009), we showed that vancomycin, oxacillin, fusidic acid, clindamycin, linezolid, and daptomycin are poorly active against the intracellular form of a thymidine-dependent small-colony variant (SCV) strain isolated from a cystic fibrosis patient and that the activity of quinupristin-dalfopristin, moxifloxacin...

Oritavancin Combinations with β-Lactams against Multidrug-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci.

Oritavancin possesses activity against vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA).In vitrodata suggest synergy between beta-lactams (BLs) and vancomycin or daptomycin, agents similar to oritavancin. We evaluated the activities of BLs combined with oritavancin against MRSA and VRE. Oritavancin MICs were determined for 30 strains, 5 each of MRSA, d...
