Abstract
Purpose: We assessed the effectiveness and safety of cefiderocol in patients with Gram-negative bacterial infections, excluding Acinetobacter spp., in the early access programme (EAP) in Spain. Methods: The retrospective, multicentre PERSEUS study (2018–2022) enrolled hospitalised patients with serious Gram-negative infections, except Acinetobacter spp., who received first-time cefiderocol for = 72 h following requests through the EAP. Clinical cure at end of treatment, all-cause mortality at Day 28, cefiderocol use, and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were the key outcomes. Results: Overall, 261 patients were eligible for analysis. Median (interquartile range) age was 61 (49–68) years, 202 (77.4%) were male and 165 (63.2%) were in the intensive care unit. The most frequent diagnoses were respiratory tract infection (47.9%), intra-abdominal infection (14.6%), and urinary tract infection (14.6%). The median (IQR) duration of cefiderocol treatment was 10 (7–14) days. Overall, the clinical cure rate was 80.5% (210/261) and the 28-day mortality rate was 21.5% (56/261). In patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (66.7% [n = 174], including 73 [42%] with metallo-ß-lactamases), the clinical cure rate was 84.5% (147/174) and the 28-day mortality was 17.2% (30/174). Logistic regression analysis showed that prior antibiotic treatment for > 7 days (OR 0.19, 95% CI 0.05–0.56) and mechanical ventilation (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.15–0.67) were independent negative predictive factors for clinical cure. ADRs occurred in seven patients, six events resolved, and one was fatal (toxic epidermal necrolysis). Conclusions: Cefiderocol is a valuable option in the treatment of serious Gram-negative bacterial infections, particularly for those caused by P. aeruginosa.
