NXL104 is a new beta-lactamase inhibitor (BLI) that inhibits class A and class C beta-lactamase enzymes. In this study, the activity of NXL104 in combination with the third-generation cephalosporins ceftazidime (CAZ) and ceftriaxone (CRO) or with piperacillin (PIP) was evaluated against 316 anaerobic bacteria. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined using an agar dilution method. The BLIs NXL104 or tazobactam (TAZ) were added to the beta-lactams at a fixed concentration of 4 mg/L. A triple combination of NXL104 with an 8: 1 ratio of CAZ and metronidazole (MTZ) was also tested. The activities of CAZ, CRO and PIP in combination with NXL104 were enhanced against many of the bacteria. MIC50 values (MIC for 50% of the organisms) for CAZ + NXL104 were 8-16-fold lower than those of CAZ against Gram-negative anaerobes. Antibiotic resistance rates against all anaerobic strains were: CAZ, 37.7%; CRO, 31%; CAZ + NXL104, 15.2%; CRO + NXL104, 5.4%; and MTZ, 4.1%. No resistant strains could be observed with PIP + TAZ, PIP + NXL104 or the triple combination MTZ + CAZ + NXL104. In conclusion, the triple combination of MTZ + CAZ + NXL104 demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against anaerobes representing most clinical species. It appears appropriate for the treatment of polymicrobial infections, since CAZ + NXL104 also exhibits potent activity against beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is currently being tested in phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. and the International Society of Chemotherapy.
