Abstract

Background De-escalation from broad-spectrum to narrow -spectrum antibiotics is considered an important measure to reduce the selective pressure of antibiotics, but a scarcity of adequate evidence is a barrier to its implementation. We aimed to determine whether de-escalation from an antipseudomonal 0-lactam to a narrower -spectrum drug was non -inferior to continuing the antipseudomonal drug in patients with Enterobacterales bacteraemia. Methods An open -label, pragmatic, randomised trial was performed in 21 Spanish hospitals. Patients with bacteraemia caused by Enterobacterales susceptible to one of the de-escalation options and treated empirically with an antipseudomonal 0-lactam were eligible. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1; stratified by urinary source) to de-escalate to ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (urinary tract infections only), cefuroxime, cefotaxime or ceftriaxone, amoxicillin- clavulanic acid, ciprofloxacin, or ertapenem in that order according to susceptibility (de-escalation group), or to continue with the empiric antipseudomonal 0-lactam (control group). Oral switching was allowed in both groups. The primary outcome was clinical cure 3-5 days after end of treatment in the modified intention -to -treat (mITT) population, formed of patients who received at least one dose of study drug. Safety was assessed in all participants. Non -inferiority was declared when the lower bound of the 95% CI of the absolute difference in cure rate was above the -10% non -inferiority margin. This trial is registered with EudraCT (2015-004219-19) and ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02795949) and is complete. Findings 2030 patients were screened between Oct 5, 2016, and Jan 23, 2020, of whom 171 were randomly assigned to the de-escalation group and 173 to the control group. 164 (50%) patients in the de-escalation group and 167 (50%) in the control group were included in the mITT population. 148 (90%) patients in the de-escalation group and 148 (89%) in the control group had clinical cure (risk difference 1<middle dot>6 percentage points, 95% CI -5<middle dot>0 to 8<middle dot>2). The number of adverse events reported was 219 in the de-escalation group and 175 in the control group, of these, 53 (24%) in the deescalation group and 56 (32%) in the control group were considered severe. Seven (5%) of 164 patients in the deescalation group and nine (6%) of 167 patients in the control group died during the 60 -day follow-up. There were no treatment -related deaths. Interpretation De-escalation from an antipseudomonal 0-lactam in Enterobacterales bacteraemia following a predefined rule was non -inferior to continuing the empiric antipseudomonal drug. These results support deescalation in this setting.
