The activity of WCK 5222 (cefepime-zidebactam) was compared to that of several available combination therapies among 30 clinical carbapenem-resistant (CRP) strains using gradient diffusion strips. The combinations included nonsusceptible β-lactams (cefepime, ceftolozane-tazobactam, and meropenem) with amikacin and fosfomycin. WCK 5222 MICs ranged from 2 to 32 mg/liter, and 97% were ≤16 mg/liter, while 105/146 (72%) combinations demonstrated inhibition below established susceptibility breakpoints. WCK 5222 monotherapy may be preferred over the combinations assessed for CRP infections.
采用梯度扩散条比较了 WCK 5222(头孢吡肟-齐他培南)与几种现有联合治疗方案在 30 株临床耐碳青霉烯肠杆菌科细菌(CRP)菌株中的活性。这些组合包括对β-内酰胺类(头孢吡肟、头孢他啶-阿维巴坦和美罗培南)耐药的药物与阿米卡星和磷霉素。WCK 5222 的 MIC 值范围为 2 至 32mg/L,97%≤16mg/L,而 105/146(72%)种组合的抑制作用低于既定的药敏折点。对于 CRP 感染,WCK 5222 单药治疗可能优于评估的联合治疗方案。
