Antimicrobial activity of oritavancin and comparator agents when tested against Gram-positive bacterial isolates causing infections in cancer patients (2014-16).

    The in vitro activity of oritavancin was assessed against clinically relevant Gram-positive pathogens causing infections in cancer patients in European and US hospitals.. A total of 1357 Gram-positive cocci (GPC) were included. Isolates were predominantly from bloodstream infections (54.6%). The most frequently isolated GPC were Staphylococcus aureus (43.6%), CoNS (14.4%) and Enterococcus spp. (22.0%).. Oritavancin (99.8% susceptible) showed modal MIC, MIC50 and MIC90 results of 0.015, 0.015-0.03 and 0.06 mg/L, respectively, when tested against S. aureus, regardless of methicillin susceptibility or geographical region. CoNS isolates from the USA demonstrated an MIC90 of oritavancin (MIC90, 0.12 mg/L) that was slightly higher than that for isolates from European countries (MIC90 0.06 mg/L). Oritavancin inhibited all Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium, including VRE, at ≤ 0.25 mg/L. Oritavancin exhibited MIC50 results of 0.03 and 0.008-0.015 mg/L when tested against isolates of β-haemolytic streptococci and viridans group streptococci, respectively, regardless of geographical region.. Oritavancin had potent activity in vitro against this contemporary collection of European and US GPC isolates from cancer patients.
