Abstract
The association between varying durations of previous vancomycin therapy and subsequent daptomycin success rates was evaluated in a subset of patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia from the Cubicin® Outcomes Registry and Experience 2005–2009 (n=159). Previous vancomycin exposure did not adversely affect daptomycin outcomes; success rates were 81% in patients treated with first-line daptomycin and 89%, 83%, and 88%, respectively, in patients with 1–3days, 4–6days, and ≥7days of previous vancomycin exposure (P=0.5).
