Nephrotoxicity

XACDURO achieved primary safety endpoint in ATTACK2

Significantly lower incidence of nephrotoxicity with XACDURO versus colistin based on modified RIFLE criteria* at any post-baseline visit, the primary safety endpoint2

For patients with creatinine clearance <45 mL/min or ≥130 mL/min, please see Full Prescribing Information.

RIFLE (risk, injury, failure, loss, or end-stage renal disease) measured by creatinine level or glomerular filtration rate, but not urinary output. Nephrotoxicity defined as meeting any of the RIFLE criteria at any post-baseline visit; if patients had multiple RIFLE events, the patient was counted only once at the highest severity. No patients in this study experienced end-stage renal disease. Nephrotoxicity analysis excluded 1 patient in the colistin group with chronic hemodialysis at baseline.

Liver test abnormalities includes the following adverse reactions: liver function test abnormal, hepatic function abnormal, increased transaminases, ALT increased, and AST increased; Acute kidney injury includes the following adverse reactions: renal impairment, blood Cr increased, toxic nephropathy, renal failure and acute kidney injury.

Adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of treatment occurred in 11% (10/91) of XACDURO patients vs. 16% (14/86) of colistin patients. One patient treated with XACDURO developed anaphylactic shock which led to discontinuation of treatment.2

Indication & Usage

Indication & Usage

Indication

XACDURO® (sulbactam for injection; durlobactam for injection), co-packaged for intravenous use is indicated in adults for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP) caused by susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex.

Limitations of Use

XACDURO is not indicated for the treatment of HABP/VABP caused by pathogens other than susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex.

Usage

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of XACDURO and other antibacterial drugs, XACDURO should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria.

Before administering, please see the Full Prescribing Information for XACDURO.

Important Safety Information

Contraindications: XACDURO is contraindicated in patients with a history of known severe hypersensitivity to the components of XACDURO or other beta-lactam antibacterial drugs.

Warnings and Precautions:

  • Hypersensitivity was observed in patients treated with XACDURO in clinical trials. Serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions and serious skin reactions have been reported in patients receiving beta-lactam antibacterial drugs. Before initiating therapy with XACDURO, careful inquiry should be made concerning previous hypersensitivity reactions to carbapenems, penicillins, cephalosporins, other beta lactams, and other allergens. If an allergic reaction occurs, discontinue XACDURO.
  • Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Evaluate if diarrhea occurs. If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, the risk/benefit of continuing treatment with XACDURO should be assessed.
  • Prescribing XACDURO in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection or a prophylactic indication is unlikely to provide benefit to the patient and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.

Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions reported in >10% of patients treated with XACDURO were liver test abnormalities (19%), diarrhea (17%), anemia (13%), and hypokalemia (12%).
