Abstract

Dalbavancin activity was assessed against a large collection of Staphylococcus aureus isolates (n = 59,903), including isolates with decreased susceptibility to vancomycin (MIC, ≥2 mg/liter; n = 1,141), daptomycin (MIC, ≥2 mg/liter; n = 48), telavancin (MIC, ≥0.12 mg/liter; n = 52), teicoplanin (MIC, ≥4 mg/liter; n = 143), and/or linezolid (MIC, ≥8 mg/liter; n = 25). Dalbavancin displayed susceptibility rates ranging from 90.4% (isolates with telavancin MIC ≥0.12 mg/liter) to 100.0% (linezolid-resistant isolates) and lower MIC values than the comparators against these resistant subsets.
