Journal: Molecular Epidemiology and Characterization of Multidrug-Resistant MRSA ST398 and ST239 in Himachal Pradesh, India. (Pubmed Central) - May 1, 2023 All isolates were sensitive to linezolid, quinupristin-dulfopristin, dalbavancin, and cefazoline...The MRSA isolates produced staphylokinase and ?-hemolysis but were negative for bovine plasma coagulation tests. The predominant MRSA clones in Himachal Pradesh, India, were hospital-associated multi-drug resistant-MRSA ST239 with PVL and community-associated MRSA ST398.

Review, Journal: Treatment of Enterococcus faecalis Infective Endocarditis: A Continuing Challenge. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 28, 2023 Some of them have scarce clinical experience and others are still under investigation and will be analyzed in this review. In addition, the need for prolonged treatment (6-8 weeks) to avoid relapses has forced to the consideration of other viable options as outpatient parenteral strategies, long-acting administrations with the new lipoglycopeptides (dalbavancin or oritavancin), and sequential oral treatments, which will also be discussed.

Journal, Gram positive: Dalbavancin in Gram-positive periprosthetic joint infections-authors' response. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 26, 2023 Our study demonstrates that new lipoglycopeptides have substantially better in vitro antimicrobial activity against ocular staphylococcal isolates compared with VAN, with a similar or improved toxicity profile on HCECs.

A Rare Case of Dalbavancin Induced Anaphylaxis (Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Area G, Hall C (Lower Level)) - Mar 25, 2023 - Abstract #ATS2023ATS_6104; Introduction: ?Dalbavancin is a newer long-acting semisynthetic lipoglycopeptide antibiotic derived from teicoplanin, an analog of vancomycin...Subsequently, patient was initiated on empiric coverage with vancomycin and cefepime antecedent to surgical intervention...The patient received intramuscular 0.5mg of 1:1000 epinephrine with a short course of intravenous methylprednisone which led to the rapid resolution of her symptoms...Based on the available literature, excluding our patient, only 2 cases of Dalbavancin-induced anaphylaxis are reported till date. We suggest caution must be exercised while administering dalbavancin and prompt evaluation and management of anaphylaxis is mandatory to decrease morbidity and mortality associated with it.

Journal: Acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections in pediatric patients: potential role of dalbavancin. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 20, 2023 Dalbavancin, the first long-acting molecule with strong activity against methicillin-resistant and also many vancomycin-resistant pathogens, represented a game changer for adult ABSSSI. In pediatric settings the available literature is still limited but a growing body of evidence supports dalbavancin use in children with ABSSSI, demonstrating this drug to be safe and highly efficacious.

Clinical, Review, Journal: The current and future off-label uses of dalbavancin: a narrative review. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 27, 2023 Further randomized clinical trials are needed to assess the optimal dosing schedule depending on the site of infection. Implementing therapeutic drug monitoring for dalbavancin may represent the future step to achieving optimal pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment.

Journal: Fast and Simple Liquid Chromatography-Isotope Dilution Tandem Mass Spectrometry Method for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Dalbavancin in Long-Term Treatment of Subacute and/or Chronic Infections. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 25, 2023 Analytical performance met all criteria in terms of specificity, sensitivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, matrix effect, extraction recovery, limit of quantification, dilution integrity and stability under different conditions set by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for drug quantification by means of bioanalytical methods. The method was successfully applied for measuring DBV concentrations (range = 2.0-77.0 mg/L) in a cohort of patients receiving long-term DBV treatment of subacute and/or chronic infections.

Journal: A Dalbavancin for Successful Treatment of Infective Endocarditis Caused by Enterococcus faecalis. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 23, 2023 The method was successfully applied for measuring DBV concentrations (range = 2.0-77.0 mg/L) in a cohort of patients receiving long-term DBV treatment of subacute and/or chronic infections. Infective endocarditis is a relatively uncommon infection that requires a high index of suspicion and its diagnosis can sometimes be challenging.Endovascular infections require long-term parenteral treatment, so outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy (OPAT) is an option for stable patients in order to avoid prolonged hospital stays.Dalbavancin is a novel antibiotic with high activity against Gram-positive pathogens and can be administered weekly.There is growing experience in the ambulatory treatment of Gram-positive cocci endovascular infections.

Journal: Dalbavancin Boosts the Ability of Neutrophils to Fight Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 12, 2023 In conclusion, we demonstrated a cooperative effect between the antimicrobial properties of PMNs and DBV, thus owing to their immunomodulatory activity. In the choice of the treatment management of serious S. aureus infections, DBV should be considered as an outstanding option since it reinforces PMNs pathogen clearance capability by exerting its effect directly, not only on MRSA but also on neutrophils.

Review, Journal, Gram positive: Dalbavancin as sequential therapy for infective endocarditis due to Gram-positive organisms: A review. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 9, 2023 Summary: Dalbavancin has been mainly used for skin and soft tissue infection, in particular, due to more resistant Gram-positive organisms such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. We review the currently available literature regarding the use of Dalbavancin in infective endocarditis.
