Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of various dosing regimens of omadacycline against main drug-resistant pathogens in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). Monte Carlo simulations were conducted using pharmacokinetic parameters and pharmacodynamic data to calculate cumulative fractions of response (CFRs) in terms of drug area under the concentration curve/minimum inhibition concentration targets.CFR ≥ 90% was considered optimal for a dosage regimen. CFR of any approved oral/intravenous regimen with loading-dose was ≥ 90% against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) for ABSSSI and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumonia, tetracycline-resistant Streptococcus pneumonia, MRSA and β-lactamase positive Haemophilus influenzae for CABP. In conclusion, approved oral/intravenous loading and maintenance doses of omadacycline showed enough efficacy in the treatment of ABSSI and CABP caused by the main drug-resistant pathogens.
