Bedaquiline susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium abscessus complex and Mycobacterium avium complex: a meta-analysis study.
Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance 2024 March 31
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to estimate the overall in vitro activity of bedaquiline (BDQ) against clinical isolates of Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABS) and Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), considering BDQ as a repurposed drug for non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections.
METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of publications in PubMed/ MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Embase up to April 15, 2023. Studies were included if they followed the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) criteria for drug susceptibility testing (DST). Using a random effects model, we assessed the overall in vitro BDQ resistance rate in clinical isolates of MABS and MAC. Sources of heterogeneity were analyzed using Cochran's Q and the I2 statistic. All analyses were performed using CMA V3.0.
RESULTS: A total of 24 publications (19 reports for MABS and 11 for MAC) were included. Using 1 μg/mL and 2 μg/mL as the breakpoint for BDQ resistance, the pooled rates of in vitro BDQ resistance in clinical isolates of MABS were found to be 1.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.7-4.6%) and 1.7% (95% CI, 0.6-4.4%), respectively. In the case of MAC, the pooled rates were 1.7% (95% CI, 0.4-6.9%) and 1.6% (95% CI, 0.4-6.8%) for 1 μg/mL and 2 μg/mL, respectively.
CONCLUSION: This study reports the prevalence of BDQ resistance in clinical isolates of MABS and MAC. The findings suggest that BDQ holds potential as a repurposed drug for treating MABS and MAC infections.
