Review of oritavancin for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.

Abstract

Abstract Objective: To assess critically oritavancin, a second-generation lipo-glycopeptide, for the treatment of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections caused by susceptible Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Method: An evaluation report of oritavancin in Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections was carried out according to the methodology of the Group for drug evaluation, standardization and research in drug selection of the Spanish Society of Hospital Pharmacy (SEFH)(1), with the MADRE 4.0 program. A search was made in PubMed, in the web www.clinicaltrials. gov, Embase, PubMed and UptoDate. The European Medication Agency and Food and Drug Administration evaluation reports were also used. Results: Single-dose oritavancin demonstrated its non-inferiority efficacy versus vancomycin in Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, with a similar safety profile. Its potential advantage over other therapeutic alternatives lies in its administration in single dose and in its no need for plasma levels monitoring, which would allow its administration on an outpatient basis. Regarding to the other alternative possibilities of oral (linezolid, tedizolid) or IM (teicoplanin) treatment, oritavancin would improve the adherence to the treatment. Although oritavancin could be more efficient in certain scenarios (outpatient treatment versus inpatient treatment with alternatives), there are no convincing studies in this regard so far. On the other hand, alternative drugs above-mentioned, can also allow outpatient treatment, reducing advantages of oritavancin and further increasing cost differences. Therefore, given that the efficacy is similar to the alternatives, a cost minimization analysis could be considered. Conclusions: Oritavancin is comparable in terms of efficacy and safety to the existing alternatives in Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, without improvements in the cost-effectiveness ratio, because of the proposed positioning is to consider it for the treatment of vancomycin-resistant enterococcal infection in adult patients when the use of linezolid or tedizolid is contraindicated.

Resumen Objetivo: Evaluar críticamente la oritavancina, lipoglicopéptido de segunda generación, para el tratamiento de la infección bacteriana aguda de la piel y tejidos blandos causada por bacterias Gram-positivas susceptibles, incluyendo Staphylococcus aureus resistente a meticilina. Método: Se realizó un informe de evaluación según la metodología del Grupo de Evaluación de Novedades, Estandarización e Investigación en Selección de Medicamentos de la Sociedad Española de Farmacia Hospitalaria, con el programa MADRE 4.0. Se llevó a cabo una búsqueda en PubMed, en www.clinicaltrials.gov, Embase y UptoDate. También se utilizaron informes publicados de agencias de evaluación. Resultados: La oritavancina en dosis única demostró no ser inferior a la vancomicina en Infección bacteriana aguda de la piel y tejidos blandos, con un perfil de seguridad similar. Sus ventajas potenciales frente a otras alternativas terapéuticas radicarían en su administración en dosis única y en la no necesidad de monitorización de los niveles plasmáticos (lo que posibilitaría su administración ambulatoria), y en la mejora de la adherencia. Aunque podría ser eficiente en determinados escenarios (tratamiento ambulatorio frente al hospitalario con las alternativas), no hay estudios convincentes en este sentido. Por otra parte, los fármacos alternativos por vía oral (linezolid, tedizolid) o IM (teicoplanina) pueden permitir también el tratamiento ambulatorio, reduciendo las ventajas de la oritavancina y agrandando las diferencias de coste. Dado que su eficacia es similar a las alternativas, cabría considerar un análisis de minimización de costes. Conclusiones: La oritavancina es de una eficacia y seguridad comparables a las alternativas existentes en Infección bacteriana aguda de la piel y tejidos blandos y no mejora la relación coste-efectividad, por lo que el posicionamiento propuesto sería el tratamiento de la infección por enterococo resistente a vancomicina en pacientes adultos cuando esté contraindicado el uso de linezolid o tedizolid.
