Abstract Background Multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogens are a continuously evolving threat for which there are limited effective treatment modalities. Omadacycline (OMC) is a novel oral and intravenously administered aminomethylcycline with potent in-vitro activity against MDR gram-negative and gram-positive pathogens. Post-marketing data investigating its potential place in the antibiotic armamentarium is limited. This study aimed at describing the clinical success and tolerability of patients receiving OMC for various infections. Methods This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational study conducted from January 2020 to March 30, 2022. We included all patients ≥ 18 years of age that received OMC for any infection not related to Mycobacterium spp. for ≥72 hours. The primary outcome was clinical success at 30 days, defined as survival, the absence of persistence or re-emergence of infection during or after therapy, and the absence of escalation or alteration of OMC. Incidence of adverse effects while on OMC and reasons for OMC utilization were also analyzed. Results This analysis included 19 patients from 10 distinct academic centers. The median age was 50 years (IQR, 37-63), 58% were male, 63% were Caucasian, and the median APACHE II, Charlson and SOFA scores were 10 (IQR 5-12.5), 4 (IQR 2-6.3), and 1 (IQR 0 – 2.25), respectively. Most patients had a bone and joint (8/19, 42.1%) or intra-abdominal infections (4/19, 21.1%), all with positive cultures. Eight patients (44.1%) had a polymicrobial infection and 4 (22.2%) had bacteremia. The most common pathogens encountered were Carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (5/19, 27.8%), E. coli (5/19, 27.8%), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp. (4/19, 22.2%), and K. pneumoniae (3/19, 16.7%). Clinical success was observed in 14 patients (74%) and 7 (36.8%) received combination therapy. Adverse drug reactions were reported in 3 patients (15.8%) and of those patients, none discontinued therapy. Reasons for prescribing OMC were mostly attributed to oral availability (12/14, 85.7%) and resistance to other agents (7/14, 50%). Conclusion OMC demonstrated clinical effectiveness and safety against a large number of MDR pathogens. More robust, prospective, comparative studies are needed to confirm our preliminary findings.

Abstract Background Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are resistant to numerous antibiotics and lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Omadacycline (OMC) is an aminomethylcycline antibiotic that is Food and Drug Administration-approved for acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. Furthermore, OMC has shown in vitro activity against NTM. Given that real-world evidence is lacking, our primary objective was to evaluate the clinical success and tolerability of OMC when used for a variety of NTM infections. Methods This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational study conducted from January 2020 to June 2021. We included all patients ≥ 18 years of age that received OMC of any indication for Mycobacterium spp. The primary outcome was clinical success, defined as a lack of all-cause mortality, lack of persistence or re-emergence of infection during or after therapy, and lack of alteration of OMC. Incidence of adverse effects potentially attributable to OMC and reasons for OMC utilization were also analyzed. Results A total of 31 patients were included from 12 geographically distinct academic health systems (median age: 57 (IQR, 45-63) years; 45% male; 81% Caucasian). The majority of isolated pathogens were Mycobacterium abscessus complex (84%) and of those with subspeciation performed (54%), the majority (86%) were subsp. abscessus. The primary infections were of pulmonary origin (67%) and the median (IQR) duration of OMC therapy was 5.3 (3.2-9.4) months. Most isolates did not have OMC susceptibility conducted (87%), while the majority did for tigecycline (90%). Clinical success was reported in 81% of the population. Most patients were on combination antimicrobial therapy, and 39% of patients reported an adverse effect while on OMC (58% gastrointestinal distress). The majority of patients were prescribed OMC due to ease of administration (61%) and antimicrobial resistance to previous antibiotics (42%). Conclusion OMC may be a potential option for the therapy of NTM infections. Prospective, randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm our preliminary findings. Disclosures Julie V.

Abstract Twelve patients were treated with omadacycline (OMC) as part of a multidrug regimen for Mycobacterium abscessus. The majority of infections were of pulmonary origin (7/12; 58.3%). The median (interquartile range) duration of OMC was 6.2 (4.2–11.0) months. Clinical success occurred in 9/12 (75.0%) patients. Three patients experienced a possible adverse effect while on therapy.
