We investigated the activity of meropenem-clavulanic acid (MEM-CLA) against 68 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates. We included predominantly multi- and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR/XDR-TB) isolates, since the activity of MEM-CLA for resistant isolates has previously not been studied extensively. Using Middlebrook 7H10 medium, all but four isolates showed an MIC distribution of 0.125 to 2 mg/liter for MEM-CLA, below the non-species-related breakpoint for MEM of 2 mg/liter defined by EUCAST. MEM-CLA is a potential treatment option for MDR/XDR-TB.
我们研究了美罗培南-克拉维酸(MEM-CLA)对68株结核分枝杆菌分离株的活性。我们纳入的主要是多重耐药和广泛耐药结核病(MDR/XDR-TB)分离株,因为此前尚未对MEM-CLA对耐药分离株的活性进行广泛研究。使用Middlebrook 7H10培养基,除4株分离株外,所有分离株对MEM-CLA的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)分布为0.125至2毫克/升,低于欧洲抗菌药物敏感性试验委员会(EUCAST)定义的MEM非种属相关折点2毫克/升。MEM-CLA是MDR/XDR-TB的一种潜在治疗选择。
