BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Imipenem/relebactam (IMP/R) is a newly FDA approved β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination. Relebactam ability to restore IMP activity could differ according to the cause of imipenem non-susceptibility. Therefore, we investigated the in-vitro activity of IMP/R against Klebsiella pneumoniae with different mechanisms of imipenem non-susceptibility.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Imipenem-nonsusceptible (IMP-NS) K. pneumoniae isolates were collected and characterized for β-lactamase encoding genes by multiplex PCR. For IMP-NS carbapenemase-negative isolates, study of Ompk35 & Ompk36 gene expression was performed by reverse transcription-PCR while efflux pump activity was studied by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) reduction assay using efflux pump inhibitor. Susceptibility testing of K. pneumoniae to IMP and IMP/R were achieved by broth microdilution (BMD) method.
RESULTS: During the study period, 140 isolates of IMP-NS K. pneumoniae were collected. BMD method showed that relebactam restored IMP susceptibility in 100%, 60% and 49% of isolates that only harbor AmpC, extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemases, respectively. IMP/R was most potent against all bla KPC and 50% of bla OXA-48 _producing isolates. No demonstrable activity of IMP/R against K. pneumoniae harboring metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). Out of 18 isolates with IMP non-suceptibility due to porins loss with overproduction of ESBL and/or AmpC, 14 (77.7%) isolates were IMP/R susceptible. IMP/R showed no activity against isolates with only efflux pump hyperactivity.
CONCLUSION: Relebactam could restore IPM activity in KPC or AmpC-producing IMP/NS K. pneumoniae but with no activity against MBL- producing isolates. Relebactam activity against isolates harbouring-bla OXA-48 or with altered Ompk35 & Ompk36 gene expression and efflux pump hyperactivity need further studies. Therefore, using IMP/R antibiotic in the treatment of infections caused by IMP/NS K. pneumoniae should be based on its molecular profile of IMP resistance to optimize the utility of IMP/R.
