Abstrakt: Background: We report results from the national CLEAR (Canadian Leadership on Antimicrobial Real-Life Usage) registry on the usage of ceftolozane/tazobactam in Canada from 2022 to 2024.
Research Design and Methods: The authors reviewed the final data using the national ethics approved CLEAR study. Thereafter, the literature is surveyed regarding the usage of ceftolozane/tazobactam to treat patients with HABP and VABP via PubMed (up to May 2024).
Results: Ceftolozane/tazobactam was primarily used as directed therapy to treat HABP and VABP caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa . It was primarily used alone, or in combination with another agent, to treat resistant and multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa infections. Despite primarily being used to treat severely ill patients in intensive care units, its use was associated with relatively high microbiological/clinical cure rates, along with an excellent safety profile. Several reports attest to the microbiological/clinical efficacy and safety of using ceftolozane/tazobactam to treat HABP and VABP.
Conclusions: In Canada, ceftolozane/tazobactam is primarily used as directed therapy alone, or in combination, to treat MDR P. aeruginosa infections. Though mostly used to treat severely ill patients in the ICU, ceftolozane/tazobactam use in HABP and VABP is associated with relatively high microbiological/clinical cure rates and an excellent safety profile.
