15 Mycobacterium avium complex M. intracellulare represents about 70% of M. avium complex isolates and its prognosis appears to be slightly more favourable than that of M. avium disease.

16 PROPHYLAXIS AGAINST DISSEMINATED MYCOBACTERIUM AVIUM COMPLEX WITH WEEKLY AZITHROMYCIN, DAILY RIFABUTIN, OR BOTH Weekly azithromycin is a simple, highly effective prophylactic regimen. The combination of azithromycin and rifabutin is more efficacious, but its use may be limited by its tolerability and cost and by potential drug interactions. Havlir DV et al. N Engl J Med 1996;335:

17 Regimens for the treatment of disseminated MAC disease in patients with HIV infection Preferred regimens CLR 500 BID + EMB 15 mg/kg QD (+RFB 300 QD) AZI 600 QD + EMB 15 mg/kg QD (+RFB 300 QD) Additional drugs for macrolideresistant infections Moxifloxacin 400 QD, or Levofloxacin mg QD + EMB 15 mg/kg QD + RFB 300 QD + AMK mg/kg QD

18 Mycobacterium avium complex Primary prophylaxis : azithromycin alone > rifabutin alone at reducing the incidence of MAC at 1 year in HIV positive people. Azithromycin or rifabutin alone < AZI+RFB Mortality: AZI = RFB = AZI+RFB ADR: AZI < AZI+RFB Jakko van Ingen et al. AJRCCM Am J Respir Crit Care Med Sep 15;186(6):

41 Before After

42 Antibiotic susceptibility and efficacy Modal MICs are below the tissue or serum levels only for clarithromycin, aminoglycosides, cefoxitin, tigecycline and TMC-207. Recommendations are now to combine clarithromycin with one aminoglycoside (usually amikacin) and one other injectable drug such as cefoxitin or imipenem. Clinical efficacy of this multidrug therapy is still controversial, with success for some patients and failure for others

43 Natural resistance The mycobacterial cell envelope Antibiotic-modifying / inactivating enzymes Target-modifying enzymes Efflux pumps Transcriptional regulator whib gene family Genetic polymorphism of target genes Mercury resistance

44 Macrolide resistance Bacterial resistance to macrolides occurs by posttranscriptional methylation of the 23S bacterial ribosomal RNA, thereby inhibiting drug attachment This acquired resistance results in crossresistance to macrolides, lincosamides and streptogramins Resistance to macrolides acquired by mutation in the rrl gene encoding the 23S rrna generally occurs in mycobacterial species

45 M. abscessus group: M. abscessus (sensu stricto), M. massiliense and M. bolletii M. massiliense, which harbours a truncated erm(41) gene, is intrinsically susceptible to clarithromycin, whereas M. abscessus sensu stricto contains a complete erm(41) gene Strains identified as M. abscessus with a C28 polymorphism are associated with clarithromycin susceptibility, whereas a T28 polymorphism is associated with clarithromycin resistance. M. bolletii, which contains the T28 polymorphic erm(41) gene, was shown to be clarithromycin resistant
