PURPOSE: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) infections are challenging to treat due to underlying patient conditions, pathogen characteristics, and high antibiotic resistance rates. As newer antibiotic therapies come to market, limited data exist about their real-world utilization.
METHODS: This was a national retrospective cohort study of ceftazidime/avibactam (approved in 2015) utilization among inpatients from the Veterans Affairs (VA) Healthcare System, from 2015 through 2021. Joinpoint regression was used to estimate time trends in utilization.
RESULTS: Ceftazidime/avibactam use increased by 52.3% each year (days of therapy per 1,000 bed days; 95% confidence interval, 12.4%-106.4%). We identified 1,048 unique predominantly male (98.3%) and white (66.2%; Black, 27.7%) patients treated with ceftazidime/avibactam, with a mean (SD) age of 71.5 (11.9) years. The most commonly isolated organisms were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (36.3%; carbapenem resistant, 80.6%; MDR, 65.0%) and Klebsiella species (34.1%; carbapenem resistant, 78.4%; extended-spectrum cephalosporin resistant, 90.7%). Common comorbid conditions included hypertension (74.8%), nervous system disorders (60.2%), diabetes mellitus (48.7%), and cancer (45.1%). Median time to ceftazidime/avibactam initiation from admission was 6 days, with a median of 3 changes in therapy before ceftazidime/avibactam initiation and a subsequent median length of inpatient stay of 14 days (median of 8 days of ceftazidime/avibactam therapy). Treatment heterogeneity was high, both before ceftazidime/avibactam initiation (89.6%) and during ceftazidime/avibactam treatment (85.6%), and common concomitant antibiotics included vancomycin (41.4%), meropenem (24.1%), cefepime (15.2%), and piperacillin/tazobactam (15.2%). The inpatient mortality rate was 23.6%, and 20.8% of patients had a subsequent admission with ceftazidime/avibactam treatment.
CONCLUSION: Utilization of ceftazidime/avibactam increased from 2015 to 2021 in the national VA Healthcare System. Ceftazidime/avibactam was utilized in complex, difficult-to-treat patients, with substantial treatment heterogeneity and variation in the causative organism and culture sites.
