Xacduro
SULBACTAM AND DURLOBACTAM
Indications and usage 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE XACDURO is a co-packaged product containing sulbactam, a beta-lactam antibacterial and beta lactamase inhibitor, and durlobactam, a beta lactamase inhibitor, indicated in patients 18 years of age and older for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP), caused by susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex. ( 1.1 ) Limitations of Use : XACDURO is not indicated for the treatment of HABP/VABP caused by pathogens other than susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex. ( 1.1 , 14 ) To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of XACDURO and other antibacterial drugs, XACDURO should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria. ( 1.2 ) 1.1 Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP) XACDURO is indicated in patients 18 years of age and older for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP), caused by susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex.
Limitations of Use XACDURO is not indicated for the treatment of HABP/VABP caused by pathogens other than susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . 1.2 Usage To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of XACDURO and other antibacterial drugs, XACDURO should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria.

( 1.2 ) 1.1 Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP) XACDURO is indicated in patients 18 years of age and older for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP), caused by susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex. Limitations of Use XACDURO is not indicated for the treatment of HABP/VABP caused by pathogens other than susceptible isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . 1.2 Usage To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of XACDURO and other antibacterial drugs, XACDURO should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. Dosage and administration 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Administer XACDURO (1 g of sulbactam, 1 g of durlobactam) every 6 hours by intravenous (IV) infusion over 3 hours in patients with creatinine clearance (CLcr) of 45 to 129 mL/min. ( 2.1 ) Dosing regimen adjustments are recommended for CLcr less than 45 mL/min and CLcr greater than or equal to 130 mL/min. ( 2.2 ) Administer all doses of XACDURO by IV infusion over 3 hours. ( 2.3 ) See full prescribing information for instructions on the preparation of the intravenous solution. ( 2.4 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage XACDURO is a co-packaged product containing sulbactam for injection and durlobactam for injection. The recommended dosage of XACDURO is 1 gram (g) of sulbactam and 1 g of durlobactam every 6 hours administered by intravenous (IV) infusion over 3 hours in adults with a creatinine clearance (CLcr) of 45 to 129 mL/min. Adjustments to the dosing regimen for XACDURO are recommended for patients with CLcr less than 45 mL/min and for patients with CLcr greater than or equal to 130 mL/min [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . The recommended duration of treatment with XACDURO is 7 to 14 days. The duration of therapy should be guided by the patient's clinical status. 2.2 Dosage in Patients (18 Years of Age and Older) Based on Renal Function See Table 1 for the recommended dosage of XACDURO in patients (18 years of age and older) based on renal function [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Adjustments to the dosing regimen are recommended for patients with creatinine clearance (CLcr) less than 45 mL/min and patients with augmented renal clearance (CLcr greater than or equal to 130 mL/min). For patients undergoing intermittent hemodialysis (HD), start the dosing of XACDURO immediately after the completion of HD. For patients with fluctuating renal function, monitor CLcr and adjust dosage accordingly [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6) ] . Table 1: Dosage of XACDURO (Sulbactam and Durlobactam) in Patients (18 Years of Age and Older) Based on Renal Function Dose of Sulbactam and Durlobactam (g) Estimated CLcr (mL/min) CLcr = creatinine clearance estimated by Cockcroft-Gault equation Frequency sulbactam 1 g and durlobactam 1 g Greater than or equal to 130 Every 4 hours 45 to 129 Every 6 hours 30 to 44 Every 8 hours 15 to 29 Every 12 hours less than 15 For patients on hemodialysis, the dose should be administered after the dialysis session has ended For patients initiating XACDURO: Every 12 hours for the first 3 doses (0, 12, and 24 hours), followed by every 24 hours after the third dose For patients currently receiving XACDURO whose CLcr declines to less than 15 mL/min: Every 24 hours 2.3 Administration The prepared XACDURO solution [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ] should be brought to ambient room temperature (over 15 to 30 min) prior to infusion to the patient. Administer all doses of XACDURO by intravenous (IV) infusion over 3 hours. 2.4 Prepara
Monitoring
- • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Reactions : Serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions have been reported with beta-lactam antibacterial drugs.
- • Hypersensitivity was observed in patients treated with XACDURO.
- • If an allergic reaction occurs, discontinue XACDURO.
- • ( 5.1 ) Clostridioides difficile -Associated Diarrhea (CDAD): CDAD has been reported with nearly all systemic antibacterial agents, including XACDURO.
Interaction Notes
- • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Organic Anion Transporter 1 (OAT1) Inhibitors : Concomitant administration with OAT1 inhibitors may increase plasma concentrations of XACDURO.
- • Concomitant administration is not recommended.
- • ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Organic Anion Transporter 1 (OAT1) Inhibitors Concomitant administration with OAT1 inhibitors may increase plasma concentrations of sulbactam.
- • Concomitant administration of OAT1 inhibitors (e.g., probenecid) with XACDURO is not recommended.
