Abstract

Objectives We assessed the efficacy and safety of an oral antimicrobial regimen for short- and long-term intestinal eradication of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-EC/KP) in immunocompromised patients. Methods We performed a randomized (2:1), double-blind multicentre Phase II study in four haematology-oncology departments. Patients colonized with ESBL-EC/KP received a 7day antimicrobial regimen of oral colistin (2x10(6)IU 4x/day), gentamicin (80mg 4x/day) and fosfomycin (three administrations of 3g every 72h), or placebo. Faecal, throat and urine specimens were collected on day 0, 62, 112, 28 +/- 4 and 42 +/- 4 after treatment initiation, and the quantitative burden of ESBL-EC/KP, resistance genes and changes in intestinal microbiota were analysed. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01931592. Results As the manufacture of colistin powder was suspended worldwide, the study was terminated prematurely. Overall, 29 (18 verum/11 placebo) out of 47 patients were enrolled. The short-term intestinal eradication was marginal at day 6 (verum group 15/18, 83.3% versus placebo 2/11, 18.2%; relative risk 4.58, 95% CI 1.29-16.33; Fisher's exact test P=0.001) and not evident at later timepoints. Quantitative analysis showed a significant decrease of intestinal ESBL-EC/KP burden on day 6. Sustained intestinal eradication (day 28+42) was not achieved (verum, 38.9% versus placebo, 27.3%; P=0.299). In the verum group, mcr-1 genes were detected in two faecal samples collected after treatment. Microbiome analysis showed a significant decrease in alpha diversity and a shift in beta diversity. Conclusions In this prematurely terminated study of a 7day oral antimicrobial eradication regimen, short-term ESBL-EC/KP suppression was marginal, while an altered intestinal microbiota composition was clearly apparent.
