Is once-daily high-dose ceftriaxone plus ampicillin an alternative for enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis in outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy programs?

Ceftriaxone administered as once-daily high-dose short infusion combined with ampicillin has been proposed for the treatment of Enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis in outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy programs (OPAT). This combination requires synergistic activity, but the attainment...

This combination requires synergistic activity, but the attainment of ceftriaxone synergic concentration (Cs) with the regimen proposed for OPAT has not been studied. This phase II pharmacokinetic study enrolled healthy adult volunteers who underwent two sequential treatment phases. During phase A, volunteers received 2 g of ceftriaxone each 12 h during 24 h followed by a 7-day wash-out. Then the participants received phase B, which consisted of a single dose of 4 g of ceftriaxone. Throughout both phases, each volunteer underwent intensive pharmacokinetic (PK) sampling over 24 h. Ceftriaxone total and unbound concentrations were measured. Twelve participants were enrolled and completed both phases. Mean ceftriaxone total and free concentrations 24 h after the administration of 2 g each 12 h were 86.44 ± 25.90 mg/liter and 3.59 ± 1.35 mg/liter, respectively, and after the 4-g single dose were 34.60 ± 11.16 mg/liter and 1.40 ± 0.62 mg/liter, respectively. Only 3 (25%) patients in phase A maintained unbound plasma concentrations superior to the suggested Cs = 5 mg/liter during 24 h, and none (0%) in phase B. No grade 3 to 4 adverse events or laboratory abnormalities were observed. Ceftriaxone optimal exposure combined with ampicillin to achieve maximal synergistic activity against E. faecalis required for the treatment of infective endocarditis remains unknown. However, the administration of a single daily dose of 4 g of ceftriaxone implies a reduction in the time of exposure to the proposed Cs.
