Abstract
BACKGROUND
Biapenem (BIPM) exhibited a less efficient substrate for various metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) than other carbapenems.
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to evaluate in vitro susceptibility data of BIPM and optimal dose based on Monte Carlo simulation to extend treatment options.
METHODS
We collected 192 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) clinical isolates from unique patients among multicentres in Thailand, from June 2019 to March 2023. BIPM disk diffusion and broth-microdilution testing were performed to obtain minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Each BIPM regimen was simulated using the Monte Carlo technique to calculate the probability of target attainment (PTA) and the cumulative fraction of response (CFR).
RESULTS
The most common genotypes among 192 CRKP isolates were blaOXA-48 (62.3%), blaOXA-48+blaNDM (22.6%) and blaNDM (15.1%). BIPM showed 22.4 and 28.6% susceptible rate when interpreted at clinical breakpoints of 1 and 2 mg/L. The MIC50 and MIC90 of BIPM against CRKP were 8 and 32 mg/L. The BIPM dosing regimens of 300 mg q 6 h infused 6 h and 600 mg q 8 h infused 8 h met the PTA target of %fTime >MIC at 50%, 75% and 100% against isolates MICs of ≤2 mg/L. Based on CFR ≥90%, no BIPM regimens were effective against all the studied CRKP isolates.
CONCLUSION
BIPM exhibited a partially susceptible rate among the CRKP isolates in Thailand. The current suggested dose of BIPM with prolonged infusion appears appropriate regimen against CRKP MICs of ≤2 mg/L. However, the empirical use of BIPM for severe CRE infection is not recommended unless the susceptibility has been confirmed.
