Ceftobiprole Activity against Bacteria from Skin and Skin Structure Infections in the United States from 2016 through 2018

Abstract: Ceftobiprole medocaril is an advanced-generation cephalosporin prodrug that has qualified infectious disease product status granted by the US FDA and is currently being evaluated in phase 3 clinical trials in patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs) and in patients with Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. In this study, the activity of ceftobiprole and comparators was evaluated against more than 7,300 clinical isolates collected in the United States from 2016 through 2018 from p… Show more

“…It has been reported that ceftobiprole is generally β-lactamase stable and has a strong affinity for essential penicillin-binding proteins, including those responsible for β-lactam resistance in staphylococci and pneumococci [ 6 ]. Several studies have been reported on the spectrum and potency of ceftobiprole against Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens collected from Europe and surrounding countries in a variety of infection types [ 2 4 , 7 , 8 ]. In this present study, we expand upon those observations by reporting the activity of ceftobiprole and comparators against bacterial isolates obtained and tested during the 2016–2018 CHINET Antimicrobial Surveillance Network in China.…”

“…As one of the limited new effective antibiotics approved for treating infection caused by resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, ceftobiprole has been proved by several studies in different medical centers around the world [7,10,11]. However, this literature data are absent in China.…”

“…In vitro studies have shown that both ceftaroline and ceftobiprole exhibit potent in vitro activity against commonly encountered gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA, penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, and gram-negative pathogens such as Citrobacter spp., Escherichia coli , Enterobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., and Serratia spp. [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Therefore, these two anti-MRSA cephalosporins could be recommended as therapeutic options for ABSSSIs.…”
