Mechanisms of ResistanceBurkholderia ubonensis High-Level Tetracycline Resistance Is Due to Efflux Pump Synergy Involving a Novel TetA(64) Resistance DeterminantBurkholderia ubonensis, a nonpathogenic soil bacterium belonging to the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc), is highly resistant to some clinically significant antibiotics. The concern is that B. ubonensis may serve as a resistance reservoir for Bcc or...
SusceptibilityIn Vitro and In Vivo Study on the Synergistic Effect of Minocycline and Azoles against Pathogenic FungiIn vitro and in vivo interactions of minocycline and azoles, including itraconazole, voriconazole, and posaconazole, against filamentous pathogenic fungi were investigated. A total of 56 clinical isolates were studied in vitro via broth microdilution checkerboard technique, including 20 strains of Aspergillus fumigatus, 7 strains of...
SusceptibilityIn Vitro Activity of KBP-7072, a Novel Third-Generation Tetracycline, against 531 Recent Geographically Diverse and Molecularly Characterized Acinetobacter baumannii Species Complex IsolatesKBP-7072 is a novel third-generation tetracycline (aminomethylcycline) antibacterial that overcomes common efflux and ribosomal protection resistance mechanisms that cause resistance in older-generation tetracyclines. KBP-7072 completed phase 1 clinical development studies for safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02454361) and multiple ascending doses in healthy subjects (ClinicalTrials.gov...
Epidemiology and SurveillanceSurveillance of Omadacycline Activity Tested against Clinical Isolates from the United States and Europe: Report from the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program, 2016 to 2018Omadacycline is a broad-spectrum aminomethylcycline approved in October 2018 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treating acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections and community-acquired pneumonia as both an oral and intravenous once-daily formulation. In this report, the activities of omadacycline and comparators were tested against 49,000 nonduplicate bacterial isolates collected prospectively during 2016 to 2018...
PharmacologyKinetic Driver of Antibacterial Drugs against Plasmodium falciparum and Implications for Clinical DosingAntibacterial drugs are an important component of malaria therapy. We studied the interactions of clindamycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and ciprofloxacin against Plasmodium falciparum under static and dynamic conditions. In microtiter plate assays (static conditions), and as expected, parasites displayed the delayed death response characteristic for apicoplast-...
Clinical TherapeuticsMicrobiological Profile of Sarecycline, a Novel Targeted Spectrum Tetracycline for the Treatment of Acne VulgarisSarecycline is the first narrow-spectrum tetracycline-class antibiotic being developed for acne treatment. In addition to exhibiting activity against important skin/soft tissue pathogens, sarecycline exhibits targeted antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of Cutibacterium acnes.
- Clinical TherapeuticsTen-Day Quadruple Therapy Comprising Low-Dose Rabeprazole, Bismuth, Amoxicillin, and Tetracycline Is an Effective and Safe First-Line Treatment for Helicobacter pylori Infection in a Population with High Antibiotic Resistance: a Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel-Controlled Clinical Trial in China
The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of 10-day bismuth quadruple therapy with amoxicillin, tetracycline, or clarithromycin and different doses of rabeprazole for first-line treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. This multicenter, randomized, parallel-controlled clinical trial was conducted between March 2013 and August 2014....
