lüll Clinical outcomes with daptomycin: a post-marketing, real-world evaluation Sakoulas GClin Microbiol Infect 2009[Dec]; 15 Suppl 6 (ä): 11-6The Cubicin Outcomes Registry and Experience (CORE) is an ongoing, retrospective, post-marketing database of daptomycin use in the USA. Although non-comparative, CORE offers insight into real-life clinical experience with daptomycin in various Gram-positive infections and specific patient types. Analyses of daptomycin treatment outcomes using the CORE database revealed that treatment with daptomycin has resulted in high rates of clinical success for a variety of Gram-positive infections, including indicated infections such as complicated skin and soft tissue infections, Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia and right-sided infective endocarditis, and non-indicated infections such as osteomyelitis. Treatment outcomes did not differ significantly according to the causative pathogen for any of the analyses performed and were not influenced by the vancomycin MIC. Patients frequently received therapy with alternative antibiotics prior to treatment with daptomycin, particularly those patients with more serious infections. However, similar treatment outcomes were observed when daptomycin was used as first-line therapy or as salvage therapy, demonstrating the effectiveness of daptomycin in the treatment of these patients.|Anti-Bacterial Agents/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Daptomycin/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Gram-Positive Bacterial Infections/*drug therapy/epidemiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
