Abstract

ABSTRACTWe report in vitro susceptibility data from five consecutive annual SIDERO-WT surveillance studies (2014 to 2019) for cefiderocol and comparators tested against Gram-negative clinical isolates from North America and Europe. CLSI broth microdilution was used to determine MICs for Enterobacterales (n = 31,896), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 7,700), Acinetobacter baumannii complex (n = 5,225), Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (n = 2,030), and Burkholderia cepacia complex (n = 425). MICs were interpreted by CLSI-approved clinical breakpoints (February 2021). Cefiderocol inhibited 99.8, 96.7, 91.6, and 97.7% of all Enterobacterales, meropenem-nonsusceptible, ceftazidime-avibactam-nonsusceptible, and ceftolozane-tazobactam-nonsusceptible isolates, respectively, at ≤4 μg/mL (susceptible breakpoint). Cefiderocol inhibited 99.9, 99.8, 100, and 99.8% of all P. aeruginosa, meropenem-nonsusceptible, ceftazidime-avibactam-nonsusceptible, and ceftolozane-tazobactam-nonsusceptible isolates, respectively, at ≤4 μg/mL (susceptible breakpoint). Cefiderocol inhibited 96.0% of all A. baumannii complex isolates and 94.2% of meropenem-nonsusceptible isolates at ≤4 μg/mL (susceptible breakpoint) and 98.6% of S. maltophilia isolates at ≤1 μg/mL (susceptible breakpoint). B. cepacia complex isolates were tested with a MIC50 of ≤0.03 μg/mL and MIC90 of 0.5 μg/mL. Annual cefiderocol percent susceptible rates for Enterobacterales (North America range, 99.6 to 100%/year; Europe range, 99.3 to 99.9%/year) and P. aeruginosa (North America range, 99.8 to 100%; Europe range, 99.9 to 100%) were unchanged from 2014 to 2019. Annual percent susceptible rates for A. baumannii complex demonstrated sporadic, nondirectional differences (North America range, 97.5 to 100%; Europe range, 90.4 to 97.5%); the wider range for Europe (∼7%) was due to isolates from Russia. Annual percent susceptible rates for S. maltophilia showed minor, nondirectional differences (North America range, 96.4 to 100%; Europe range, 95.6 to 100%). We conclude that clinical isolates of Enterobacterales (99.8% susceptible), P. aeruginosa (99.9%), A. baumannii (96.0%), and S. maltophilia (98.6%) collected in North America and Europe from 2014 to 2019 were highly susceptible to cefiderocol.
