Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Understanding

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia: Overview

Ventilator-associated pneumonia is defined as pneumonia occurring more than 48 h after patients have been intubated and received mechanical ventilation. Diagnosing VAP requires a high clinical suspicion combined with bedside examination, radiographic examination, and microbiologic analysis of respiratory secretions. Aggressive surveillance is vital in understanding local factors leading to VAP and the microbiologic milieu of a given unit. Judicious antibiotic usage is essential, as resistant organisms continue to plague intensive care units and critically ill patients. The mortality in ventilator-associated pneumonia is high despite the availability of effective antibiotics. However, not all mortality is attributable to the pneumonia itself; many of the deaths are related to the patient's underlying illness. Adequacy of initial antimicrobial therapy clearly improves prognosis. Infection with antibiotic-resistant gram-negative or gram-positive bacteria worsens prognosis. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) has traditionally been treated with a 14–21-day course of antibiotics. However, prolonged antibiotic therapy is associated with the emergence of multidrug-resistant strains, as well as higher toxicity and costs.

Report Highlights

• In April 2022, Entasis Therapeutics Presented Efficacy and Safety Data from Landmark Phase III ATTACK Trial at ECCMID 2022 Conference. The trial consisted of two parts: Part A was a randomized, blinded noninferiority study (SUL-DUR versus colistin; non-inferiority margin 20%) in ABC hospital-acquired pneumonia, ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, ventilated pneumonia, or bacteremia; Part B was an open label study (SUL-DUR only) that enrolled patients with ABC infections.
• Aridis Pharmaceuticals has continued enrollment in the Company's Phase III study evaluating AR-301 for the treatment of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Aridis is on track to report top-line data in the second half of 2022.
• In March 2022, Spero Therapeutics reported topline results from Phase I bronchoalveolar lavage trial support further development of SPR206 in the setting of hospital-acquired pneumonia and ventilator-associated pneumonia.

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Ventilator Associated Pneumonia report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Emerging Drugs

• AR-301: Aridis Pharmaceuticals

AR-301 (tosatoxumab) is being evaluated in a Phase III clinical study as an adjunctive treatment to standard of care antibiotics in S. aureus VAP patients. The ongoing AR-301 Phase III study remains blinded, and the independent Data Monitoring Committee with access to unblinded data continues to monitor study subjects for safety and has not expressed any safety concerns. The Company has observed modest improvement in enrollment in recent months despite the continued pandemic. However, because a significant number of participating clinical sites in the study are in Eastern Europe, the escalating Ukraine-Russia conflict is expected to negatively impact enrollment. At the present time, the company anticipates reporting top-line data in the second half of 2022.

• ETX 2514/Sulbactam: Entasis Therapeutics

Durlobactam (DUR; previously designated ETX2514) is our novel, broad-spectrum and potent inhibitor of Class A, C, and D β-lactamases. Sulbactam (SUL) is a β-lactam antibiotic with activity against Acinetobacter baumannii; however, β-lactamase-mediated resistance to sulbactam is now widespread rendering it generally ineffective. In preclinical studies, durlobactam inhibits the β-lactamases commonly found in A. baumannii thus restoring sulbactam’s activity. The company is developing SUL-DUR (previously designated ETX2514SUL), a combination of β-lactam antibiotic and a β-lactamase inhibitor for the treatment of serious infections cuased by Acinetobacter, including multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains.

In April 2022, Entasis Therapeutics reported positive topline results for sulbactam-durlobactam (SUL-DUR) from Phase III ATTACK trial. The trial consisted of two parts: Part A was a randomized, blinded noninferiority study (SUL-DUR versus colistin; non-inferiority margin 20%) in ABC hospital-acquired pneumonia, ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, ventilated pneumonia, or bacteremia; Part B was an open label study (SUL-DUR only) that enrolled patients with ABC infections who did not tolerate colistin/polymyxin B or whose pathogens were resistant to colistin/polymyxin B. SUL-DUR met the primary safety objective of the study achieving statistically significant reduction in nephrotoxicity. NDA submission is planned for mid-2022.
