Pharmacodynamic evaluation of intermittent versus extended and continuous infusions of piperacillin/tazobactam in a hollow-fibre infection model against Escherichia coli clinical isolates
JOURNAL OF ANTIMICROBIAL CHEMOTHERAPY(2022)
摘要
Objectives To compare the bacterial killing and emergence of resistance of intermittent versus prolonged (extended and continuous infusions) infusion dosing regimens of piperacillin/tazobactam against two Escherichia coli clinical isolates in a dynamic hollow-fibre infection model (HFIM). Methods Three piperacillin/tazobactam dosing regimens (4/0.5 g 8 hourly as 0.5 and 4 h infusions and 12/1.5 g/24 h continuous infusion) against a ceftriaxone-susceptible, non-ESBL-producing E. coli 44 (Ec44, MIC 2 mg/L) and six piperacillin/tazobactam dosing regimens (4/0.5 g 8 hourly as 0.5 and 4 h infusions and 12/1.5 g/24 h continuous infusion; 4/0.5 g 6 hourly as 0.5 and 3 h infusions and 16/2 g/24 h continuous infusion) were simulated against a ceftriaxone-resistant, AmpC- and ESBL-producing E. coli 50 (Ec50, MIC 8 mg/L) in a HFIM over 7 days (initial inoculum similar to 10(7) cfu/mL). Total and less-susceptible subpopulations and MICs were determined. Results All simulated dosing regimens against Ec44 exhibited 4 log(10) of bacterial killing over 8 h without regrowth and resistance emergence throughout the experiment. For Ec50, there was the initial bacterial killing of 4 log(10) followed by regrowth to 10(11) cfu/mL within 24 h against all simulated dosing regimens, and the MICs for resistant subpopulations exceeded 256 mg/L at 72 h. Conclusions Our study suggests that, for critically ill patients, conventional intermittent infusion, or prolonged infusions of piperacillin/tazobactam may suppress resistant subpopulations of non-ESBL-producing E. coli clinical isolates. However, intermittent, or prolonged infusions may not suppress the resistant subpopulations of AmpC- and ESBL-producing E. coli clinical isolates. More studies are required to confirm these findings.
