22 Pharmacodynamics of Ceftazidime and Avibactam in Neutropenic Mice with Thigh or Lung Infection Johanna Berkhout, Maria J. Melcherset al. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy January 2016 Volume 60 1 We conclude that the effect of avibactam in combination with ceftazidime is dependent on the time above threshold %ft>ct 1mg/liter. The results found in this study are proposed to be applicable to designing and assessing human dosing regimens. %ft>ct 0,5 1 4

24 M. J. Melchers, E. et al. Ceftolozane-tazobactam AAC (12) The main PDI (pharmacokinetic/pd index (PDI)-response) that correlated with the effect of tazobactam was the ftct achieved with a CT of 0.5 mg/liter tazobactam.

25 The Relationship Between Tazobactam %T>Threshold and Change in Log 10 CFU PK/PD In Vitro Infection Model Ceftolozanetazobactam Seuil de tazobactam The threshold concentration identified for each isolate ranged from 0.5 to 4 mg/liter. Vanscoy B, Mendes RE, McCauley J, Bhavnani SM, Bulik CC, Okusanya OO, Forrest A, Jones RN, Friedrich LV, Steenbergen JN, Ambrose PG. Pharmacological basis of β-lactamase inhibitor therapeutics: tazobactam in combination with Ceftolozane. Antimicrob Agents Chemother For Internal Training Purposes Only Dec;57(12):

26 CT = ½ CMI The enabling translational relationship for the tazobactam threshold that allowed comodeling of all four clinical isolates was the product of the individual isolate s ceftolozane-tazobactam MIC value (determined with a tazobactam concentration of 4 mg/liter) and 0.5. The tazobactam %Timethresholds associated with net bacterial stasis and 1- and 2- log10 CFU reductions in bacteria at 24h were 65.9, 77.3, and 90.2% of the dosing interval

Mouton Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy 2017 Volume 61 Issue 9 Pharmacodynamics of Cefepime Combined with Tazobactam against Clinically Relevant Enterobacteriaceae in a Neutropenic Mouse Thigh Model Exposure-response relationships (ERRs) of tazobactam A sigmoidal maximum-effect (Emax) model was fitted to the data Time-dependent activity of tazobactam. The cumulative percentage that freedrug concentrations are above the threshold concentration over a period of 24 h [%ftct], The threshold concentration (CT) best correlating with tazobactam efficacy was 0.25 mg/ liter, as evidenced by the best fit of the percentage of time above the threshold concentration (%ftct) and response. A mean %ftct of 24.6% (range, 11.4 to 36.3%) for a CT of 0.25 mg/liter was required to obtain a bacteriostatic effect.

30 Dose fixe de cépépime on fait varier: les concentrations de Tazobactam les rythmes d administration du tazobactam Abaissement logarithmique de la charge bactérienne [Δlog10 CFU] dans la cuisse de souris The first approach was to determine the relationship between exposure and efficacy for a range of threshold levels and by visual inspection to decide which looked best.

31 To quantify these relationships, the R 2 for each of the plots was plotted against the concentration threshold value, and a fourth-order polynomial was fitted to the data points to allow calculation of the optimum value. ax 4 + bx 3 + cx 2 + dx + e = 0 Ferrari ( ) The calculated CT with the highest R 2 was subsequently used as the tazobactam threshold for each strain. 0,25mg/L

32 If CT is indeed the PK/PD index that best predicts efficacy, there should be a CT at which the %ftct response relationships of the q2h, q4h, and q6h regimens do not differ significantly from each other. Indépendance du régime d administration
