Checkerboard experiments followed by fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index determinations are commonly used to assess in vitro pharmacodynamic interactions between combined antibiotics, but FIC index cannot be determined in case of antibiotic/non-active compound combinations. The aim of this study was to use a simple modelling approach to quantify the in vitro activity of aztreonam-avibactam, a new β-lactam-β-lactamase inhibitor combination.MIC checkerboard experiments were performed with 12 Enterobacteriaceae with diverse β-lactamases profiles. Aztreonam MICs in the absence and presence of avibactam at different concentrations (ranging from 0.0625 to 4 mg/L) were determined. Aztreonam MIC versus avibactam concentrations were fitted by an inhibitory EA concentration-dependent relationship was observed with a steep initial reduction of aztreonam MIC at low avibactam concentrations and reaching a maximum at higher avibactam concentrations that was adequately fitted by the model. Maximum avibactam effect was characterized by the ratio of aztreonam MICs in the absence of avibactam (MICAn inhibitory E |
