  • Title: Telavancin in vitro activity against a collection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates, including resistant subsets, from the United States.
    Author: Mendes RE, Sader HS, Flamm RK, Farrell DJ, Jones RN.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 2015 Mar; 59(3):1811-4. PubMed ID: 25561335.
    Abstract:
    Telavancin had MIC50, MIC90, and MIC100 values of 0.03, 0.06, and 0.12 μg/ml, respectively, against methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), and non-multidrug-resistant (non-MDR) and MDR subsets. MRSA with elevated MIC values for vancomycin (2 to 4 μg/ml) or daptomycin (1 to 2 μg/ml) had telavancin MIC50 (0.06 μg/ml) values 2-fold higher than those of isolates with lower MIC results (MIC50, 0.03 μg/ml). However, telavancin had MIC90 and MIC100 results of 0.06 and 0.12 μg/ml (100% susceptible), respectively, regardless of the MRSA subset.
