Abstract

Abstract: Background: SPR994 is an orally bioavailable pivoxil hydrobromide prodrug of tebipenem, a novel oral carbapenem with activity against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria currently under development for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI). Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become one of the most common pathogens associated with nosocomial infections. A series of susceptibility studies was designed to evaluate the activity of tebipenem against a panel of P. aeruginosa isolates known to have alterations in efflux pumps, outer-membrane porins, and expression of AmpC beta-lactamase enzymes compared to a subset of wild-type organisms. Methods: A panel of 20 P. aeruginosa isolates was subjected to tebipenem and five other challenge compounds (meropenem, ertapenem, levofloxacin, tetracycline, and carbenicillin) in order to determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values, in triplicate, using standard agar dilution methodologies. P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853 was used as an internal control and all reported MIC values represented the modal value. Results: Tebipenem MIC values ranged from 0.25 to >64 mg/L for the 20 isolates evaluated (Table 1 ) and were similar to those found for meropenem and ertapenem with MIC values ranging from ≤0.03 to 16 mg/L and ≤0.25 to 128 mg/L, respectively. The deletion of MexB decreased the carbapenem MIC values by 2 to 4x while deletion of MexCD-OprJ and MexXy did not. Simultaneous deficiencies in MexAB, CD, EF, and XY did not decrease MIC values in comparison with the deletion of MexAB alone. Isolates possessing a derepressed AmpC showed no significant elevation in MIC value compared to wild-type isolates while those known to have lost OprD resulted in carbapenem MIC values increasing by ~4 to 32x. The combined loss of OprD and overexpression of AmpC resulted in the highest carbapenem MIC values (≥16 mg/L). Levofloxacin, tetracycline, and carbenicillin MIC values ranged from ≤0.06 to 16 mg/L, 0.5 to 64 mg/L, and ≤0.125 to >128 mg/L, respectively. All MIC values determined for the internal control were within Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute reported values. Table 1. Modal agar-dilution MIC values for all compounds evaluated against the 20 P. aeruginosa isolates in the challenge isolate panel Conclusion: These data provide insight into the effect that alterations in efflux pump, outer-membrane porins, and expression of AmpC enzymes have on the activity of tebipenem and comparison antibiotics.
