    Multicenter Clinical Performance Evaluation of Omadacycline Susceptibility Testing of Enterobacterales on VITEK 2 Systems
    (American Society for Microbiology, 2023) Csiki-Fejer, Edith; Traczewski, Maria; Procop, Gary W.; Davis, Thomas E.; Hackel, Meredith; Dwivedi, Hari P.; Pincus, David H.; Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, School of Medicine
    We present the first performance evaluation results for omadacycline on the VITEK 2 and VITEK 2 Compact Systems (bioMérieux, Inc.). The trial was conducted at four external sites and one internal site. All sites were in the United States, geographically dispersed as follows: Indianapolis, IN; Schaumburg, IL; Wilsonville, OR; Cleveland, OH; and Hazelwood, MO. In this multisite study, omadacycline was tested against 858 Enterobacterales on the VITEK 2 antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) Gram-negative (GN) card, and the results were compared to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute broth microdilution (BMD) reference method. The results were analyzed and are presented as essential agreement (EA), category agreement (CA), minor error (mE) rates, major error (ME) rates, and very major error (VME) rates following the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and International Standards Organization (ISO) performance criteria requirements. Omadacycline has susceptibility testing interpretive criteria (breakpoints) established by the FDA only; nevertheless, the analysis was also performed using the ISO acceptance criteria to satisfy the registration needs of countries outside the United States. The analysis following FDA criteria (including only Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae) showed the following performance: EA = 97.9% (410/419), CA = 94.3% (395/419), VME = 2% (1/51), with no ME present. The performance following ISO criteria (including all Enterobacterales tested) after error resolutions was EA = 98.1% (842/858) and CA = 96.9% (831/858). No ME or VME were observed. The VITEK 2 test met the ISO and FDA criteria of ≥ 95% reproducibility, and ≥ 95% quality control (QC) results within acceptable ranges for QC organisms. In June 2022, the omadacycline VITEK 2 test received FDA 510(k) clearance (K213931) FDA as a diagnostic device to be used in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections caused by E. cloacae and K. pneumoniae, and for treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia caused by K. pneumoniae. The new VITEK 2 AST-GN omadacycline test provides an alternative to the BMD reference method testing and increases the range of automated diagnostic tools available for determining omadacycline MICs in Enterobacterales.

    Multicenter Evaluation of Ceftazidime-Avibactam Susceptibility Testing of Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa on the Vitek 2 System
    (American Society for Microbiology, 2021-02-18) Humphries, Romney; Campeau, Shelley; Davis, Thomas E.; Nagaro, Kristin J.; LaBombardi, Vincent J.; Franklin, Simone; Heimbach, Lisa; Dwivedi, Hari P.; Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, School of Medicine
    In this multisite study, Vitek 2 AST-Gram-Negative Ceftazidime/Avibactam test results for 1,073 isolates (866 Enterobacterales and 207 Pseudomonas aeruginosa) were compared to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution (BMD) reference method. The results were analyzed for essential agreement (EA), category agreement (CA), major error rates, and very major error rates following FDA/ISO performance criteria using the FDA-recognized CLSI/EUCAST breakpoints (sensitive [S], ≤8/4 μg/ml; resistant [R], ≥16/4 μg/ml). The overall EA was 94.5% (1,014/1,073) and CA was 98.7% (1,059/1,073). No very major errors were reported. The major error rate was 1.4% (14/998). Out of 14 major errors, 9 were within EA. Based on the EA and lack of an intermediate category for ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA), the adjusted major error rate for FDA criteria was 0.5% (5/998). The performance for ISO criteria after error resolutions included EA of 94.5% (1,014/1,073), CA of 98.9% (1,061/1,073), major error of 1.2% (12/998), and no very major error. Vitek 2 met the ISO and FDA criteria of ≥95% reproducibility and ≥95% quality control (QC) results within acceptable ranges for QC organisms. Vitek 2 overall performance for Enterobacterales and P. aeruginosa met or exceeded the FDA and ISO performance criteria; thus, it is a reliable alternative to the BMD reference method for routine CZA susceptibility testing.
