4 The Public Health Action Plan Four Principal Components Surveillance Goal 1: Improve the detection, monitoring, and characterization of drug-resistant infections in humans and animals. Goal 2: Better define, characterize, and measure the impact of antimicrobial drug use in humans and animals in the United States. Prevention and Control Research Goal 1: Facilitate basic research on antimicrobial resistance. Goal 2: Facilitate the translation of basic research findings into practical applications for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of resistant infections. Goal 3: Facilitate clinical research to improve the treatment and prevention of antimicrobial drug resistant infections. Goal 4: Conduct and support epidemiological studies to identify key drivers of the emergence and spread of AR in various populations. Product Development

The breakpoints for azithromycin and streptomycin are NARMSestablished breakpoints developed for resistance monitoring. They should not be used to predict clinical efficacy. -Sulfamethoxazole was tested from 1996 through 2003 and was replaced by sulfisoxazole in The revised ciprofloxacin breakpoint for invasive Salmonella from the CLSI M100- S22 document, published in January 2012, is used. The revised breakpoints were applied to all non-typhoidal Salmonella. In previous NARMS reports, breakpoints from the CLSI M100-S21 were used.

22 Detecting Novel Gentamycin Resistance Genes in Campylobacter Isolated from Human, Retail Chicken and Food Animals in NARMS Program 22
23 Aminoglycosides They are highly potent, broad-spectrum bactericidal antibiotics, commonly used in the treatment of infections caused by aerobic G- bacteria as well as some selected G+ bacteria Common aminoglycoside antibiotics Gentamicin Tobramycin Amikacin Kanamycin Neomycin Streptomycin Inhibit protein synthesis 23
24 Aminoglycosides Resistance The primary mechanism of resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics is enzymatic inactivation by three major aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes: aminoglycoside acetytransferases (AACs) aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferases (ANTs) aminoglycoside phosphotransferases (APHs) More than 300 aminoglycoside resistance genes have been identified 24

34 Summary Gen R has increased rapidly in Campylobacter in the U.S. 9 variants of Gen R genes were identified 7 were identified for the first time in Campylobacter 5 were novel aminoglycoside resistance genes Human isolates contained more diverse Gen R genes than retail chicken isolates PFGE and Gen R genotypes indicated that contaminated retail chicken could serve as a source of Gen R C. coli infections in humans. WGS is a powerful tool to detect resistance genotypes. 34

41 Summary Based on current knowledge and technology, WGS predicts resistance very well % correlation for the drug classes beta-lactam, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, sulfonamide, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, macrolides and quinolone 92-97% correlation for aminoglycoside, lincosamides and keolides A comprehensive and accurate database of ARG is critical Reasons for disconnect AST interpretation standard experimental and analytical error variable gene expression level unknown mechanisms 41
42 Benefits of a WGS Strategy in NARMS WGS has potential to serve as a single assay of NARMS surveillance and supplant multiple methods 1. Classical serotyping 2. PFGE and other molecular typing methods 3. In vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing 4. Multiple PCR assays to detect resistance genes and plasmid typing And to provide: 1. Genome surveillance 2. Virulence profiles 3. Markers for source attribution 4. Better understanding of emerging resistance trends, origin, dissemination and selection pressure 5. Cost saving 42
