Meropenem-vaborbactam restoration of first-line drug efficacy and comparison of meropenem-vaborbactam-moxifloxacin versus BPaL MDR-TB regimen.
Meropenem in combination with β-lactamase inhibitors (BLIs) and other drugs was tested to identify alternative treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB).. The following were performed: (1) MIC experiments; (2) static time-kill studies (STKs) with different BLIs; and (3) a hollow fibre model system of TB (HFS-TB) studies with meropenem-vaborbactam combined with human equivalent daily doses of 20 mg/kg or 35 mg/kg rifampin, or moxifloxacin 400 mg, or linezolid 600 mg vs. bedaquiline-pretonamid-linezolid (BPaL) for MDR-TB. The studies were performed using Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) H37Rv and an MDR-TB clinical strain (named M. tuberculosis 16D) that underwent whole genome sequencing. Exponential decline models were used to calculate the kill rate constant (K) of different HFS-TB regimens.. Adding meropenem-vaborbactam could potentially restore the efficacy of isoniazid and rifampin against MDR-TB. The meropenem-vaborbactam-moxifloxacin backbone regimen has implications for creating a new effective MDR-TB regimen.
