Description

Ceftaroline fosamil is a 5th generation cephalosporin with an in vitro spectrum of activity including Streptococcus agalactiae, penicillin- and cephalosporin-resistant S. pneumoniae, S. pyogenes, methicillin-susceptible S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella oxytoca, K. pneumoniae and Moraxella catarrhalis. Ceftaroline fosamil (TAK-599 or PPI-0903), the prodrug of the active metabolite, ceftaroline, was synthesized by Takeda Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd and developed by Cerexa, Inc. and Forest Laboratories, Inc. It is currently approved by the FDA for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) in adults. Ceftaroline fosamil is marketed under the brand name TEFLARO®, indicated in adult and pediatric patients 2 months of age and older for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) caused by susceptible isolates of the following Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-susceptible and ‑resistant isolates), Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Klebsiella oxytoca. TEFLARO is also indicated in adult and pediatric patients 2 months of age and older for the treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) caused by susceptible isolates of the following Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms: Streptococcus pneumoniae (including cases with concurrent bacteremia), Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-susceptible isolates only), Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Escherichia coli. Ceftaroline provides in vitro bactericidal activity against methicillin-, vancomycin-, daptomycin-, and linezolid-resistant Gram-positive organisms and select Gram-negative pathogens. The pharmacodynamics of ceftaroline is similar to other β-lactam agents. Ceftaroline exhibits a favorable adverse effect profile and is generally well tolerated. The bactericidal action of ceftaroline is mediated through binding to essential penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Ceftaroline is bactericidal against S. aureus due to its affinity for PBP2a and against Streptococcus pneumoniae due to its affinity for PBP2x.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Adult patients > 18 years of age: 600 mg every 12 hours by IV infusion administered over 5 to 60 min (2.1)  Pediatric patients from 2 years to < 18 years of age weighing ≤ 33 kg: 12 mg/kg every 8 hours by IV infusion administered over 5 to 60 min. Pediatric patients from 2 years to < 18 years of age weighing > 33 kg: 400 mg every 8 hours or 600 mg every 12 hours by IV infusion administered over 5 to 60 min. (2.2)  Pediatric patients from 2 months to < 2 years of age: 8 mg/kg every 8 hours by IV infusion administered over 5 to 60 min (2.2)  Dosage adjustment is required in adult patients with creatinine clearance (CrCl) < 50 mL/min and in End-stage Renal Disease (ESRD) including hemodialysis (2.3)
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Ceftaroline was very active overall against 799 S. pneumoniae (MIC(50/90,) ≤ 0.008/0.12 ug/mL) and inhibited 100.0% of all isolates at a MIC ≤ 0.5 ug/mL. Ceftaroline was very potent against penicillin-resistant (CLSI oral penicillin V breakpoints) and -intermediate S. pneumoniae (MIC(50/90), 0.12/0.25 and 0.03/0.12 ug/mL, respectively), but potency was lower than observed against penicillin-susceptible isolates (MIC(50/90), ≤ 0.008/≤ 0.008 ug/mL). Ceftaroline was also very active (MIC(50/90), ≤ 0.008/0.015 ug/mL) against 515 Haemophilus influenzae, including β-lactamase-producing strains (MIC(50/90), 0.015/0.06 ug/mL). Ceftaroline also demonstrated good activity against 205 Moraxella catarrhalis isolates (MIC(50/90), 0.06/0.12 ug/mL).
