Background Third-generation cephalosporin (3GC)-resistant Enterobacteriaceae has been classified as critical priority pathogens. The novel extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) inhibitor enmetazobactam (formerly AAI101; EMT) in combination with cefepime (FEP) is currently being developed as a carbapenem-sparing treatment of serious Gram-negative infections in settings with a high prevalence of 3GC-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. We report here the results from a phase 2 study that assessed safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of FEP-EMT in patients with cUTI/AP. Methods Forty-five patients were enrolled in a randomized, multicenter, double-blind study of hospitalized adults with cUTI/AP. Patients received dosing regimens of FEP or FEP-EMT IV therapy q8h by 2 hours infusion (table) for 7 to 10 days with a 28-day follow-up. Efficacy was evaluated in the microbiological-modified ITT (µMITT) population. Safety was monitored in patients who received at least 1 dose of study drug. Clinical cure was designated as the resolution of cUTI symptoms present at study entry. Plasma and urine PK were determined from all patients. Results The study drugs were well tolerated in each cohort, with similar % adverse events and no new or unexpected safety concerns (table). Two discontinuations were due to allergic dermatitis. The microbiological- and clinical responses at test-of-cure for the combined FEP-EMT group were 83.3% (20/24) and 95.8% (23/24) compared with responses in the combined FEP group of 73.3% (11/15) and 93.3% (14/15), respectively (table). The most common baseline pathogens were Escherichia coli (66.7%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (23.1%): 28.2% of isolates produced ESBLs with eradication rates for the combined FEP-EMT group of 85.7% (6/7) and for the combined FEP group of 75.0% (3/4). FEP and EMT PK were best described by a 2-compartment, linear PK model. Both agents exhibited half-lives of 2.3 hours. Creatinine clearance had a significant covariate effect on FEP and EMT, consistent with predominant renal excretion of both agents. Conclusion Results from this phase 2 study justify advancement to phase 3 studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FEP-EMT in patients with cUTI/AP.
