Abstract

Abstract: Background: Omadacycline (OMC) is a novel tetracycline (TET) derivative antibiotic with activity against TET-resistant Enterobacterales. OMC is available in both oral and intravenous formulations and is has been studied as a treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI) and acute pyelonephritis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate OMC activity against extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) positive and negative Enterobacterales strains recovered from urine specimens. Methods: Urine samples from patients with suspected UTI were quantitatively plated onto blood agar and MacConkey agar plates in the microbiology lab of Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. After overnight incubation, colonies were identified to the species level by MALDI-TOF system. Susceptibility testing was performed for isolates of E. coli and K. pneumoniae . OMC and TET susceptibility testing was performed by disk diffusion and gradient strip methodologies. Results were interpreted in accordance with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) or Food and Drug Administration breakpoints. Isolates were tested in triplicate. ESBL screening and susceptibility testing to oral antibiotics commonly prescribed for UTI were performed by the MicroScan WalkAway System. Susceptibility rates and MIC50 /90 were calculated and subsets of isolates were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: A total of 204 isolates, including 102 E. coli and 102 K. pneumoniae, were tested. All but 1 isolate (99.5%) exhibited categorical agreement in results generated by the strip (Table 1) and disk (data not shown) methods and this was considered a minor error involving an intermediate result. OMC MIC90 for E. coli and K. pneumoniae were 6 µg/mL and >32 µg/mL, respectively. OMC displayed increased susceptibility rates compared to TET regardless of isolate species or ESBL positivity (Table 2). Table 1. Omadacycline Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs, µg/mL) Table 2. Susceptibilities of Oral Antibiotics Used to Treat UTI (% S) Conclusion: OMC exhibits promising antimicrobial activity against TET-resistant and ESBL-positive E. coli and K. pneumoniae . OMC displays superior activity to ESBL positive E. coli when compared to ESBL positive K. pneumoniae . These data support the development of OMC as a much needed option in the treatment of UTI caused by resistant Enterobacterales. Disclosures: Tyler J.
