Abstrakt: Introduction: Novel beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor (BIBLI) combinations are commercially available and have been used for treating carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections. Continuous surveillance of susceptibility profiles and resistance mechanism identification are necessary to monitor the evolution of resistance within these agents.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility rates of ceftazidime/avibactam, imipenem/relebactam and meropenem/vaborbactam in CRKP isolated from patients with bloodstream infections who underwent screening for a randomized clinical trial in Brazil.
Methods: Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined for meropenem, ceftazidime/avibactam, imipenem/relebactam and meropenem/vaborbactam using the gradient diffusion strip method. Carbapenemase genes were detected by multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction. Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing isolates showing resistance to any BLBLI and New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM)-producing isolates with susceptibility to any BLBLI isolates were further submitted for whole-genome sequencing.
Results: From a total of 69 CRKP isolates, 39 were positive for bla KPC , 19 for bla NDM and 11 for bla KPC and bla NDM . KPC-producing isolates demonstrated susceptibility rates above 94 % for all BLBLIs. Two isolates with resistance to meropenem/vaborbactam demonstrated a Gly and Asp duplication at the porin OmpK36 as well as a truncated OmpK35. All NDM-producing isolates, including KPC and NDM coproducers, demonstrated susceptibility rates to ceftazidime/avibactam, imipenem/relebactam and meropenem/vaborbactam of 0 %, 9.1-21.1 % and 9.1-26.3 %, respectively. Five NDM-producing isolates that presented susceptibility to BLBLIs also had porin alterations CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that, although high susceptibility rates to BLBLIs were found, KPC-2 isolates were able to demonstrate resistance probably as a result of porin mutations. Additionally, NDM-1 isolates showed susceptibility to BLBLIs in vitro.
