The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have approved oritavancin for treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.[5][3]

In vitro activity

Oritavancin shares certain properties with other members of the glycopeptide class of antibiotics, which includes vancomycin, the current standard of care for serious Gram-positive infections in the United States and Europe.[6] It possesses potent and rapid bactericidal activity in vitro against a broad spectrum of both resistant and susceptible Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, enterococci, and streptococci.[7] Oritavancin was more active than either metronidazole or vancomycin against strains of Clostridium difficile tested.[8]

Oritavancin has potential use as a therapy for exposure to Bacillus anthracis, the Gram-positive bacterium that causes anthrax, having demonstrated efficacy in a mouse model both before and after exposure to the bacterium.[9]

oritavancin demonstrates in vitro activity against both the planktonic and biofilmstates of staphylococci associated with Prosthetic joint infection (PJI), albeit with increased minimum biofilm bactericidal concentration (MBBC) compared to Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) values.[10] Moreever oritavancin has demonstrated activity against in vitro to vancomycin-susceptible enterococci (VSE) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in both planktonic and biofilm states.[11]

Mechanism

The 4'-chlorobiphenylmethyl group disrupts the cell membrane of Gram-positive bacteria.[12] It also acts by inhibition of transglycosylation and inhibition of transpeptidation.[13]

Synergism

Several antibiotics have been tested as partner drugs of oritavancin.[14][15] Among these "companions" drugs, fosfomycin displayed (in vitro and in vivo) synergistic activity when administered together with oritavancin against VRE strains (both vanA and vanB).[16]

Spectrum of Activity

Oritavancin is active against gram-positive aerobic bacteria such as enterococci, staphylococci, streptococci, and anaerobic bacteria such as Clostridium difficile , Clostridium perfringens , Peptostreptococcus spp. , and Propionibacterium acnes.[17][18] Oritavancin's spectrum of activity shows similarities to vancomycin, but with lower minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC).[19]

Clinical trials

In 2003, results were presented from two pivotal phase-III clinical trials testing the efficacy of daily intravenous oritavancin for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections (ABSSSI) caused by Gram-positive bacteria. The primary endpoints of both studies were met, with oritavancin achieving efficacy with fewer days of therapy than the comparator agents vancomycin followed by cephalexin. Oritavancin showed a statistically significant improved safety profile with a 19% relative reduction in the overall incidence of adverse events versus vancomycin/cephalexin in the second and larger pivotal trial.[20]

Osteomyelitis remains a formidable foe in an era of increasing incidence of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with limited guidance for treatment optimization. The success observed in many patients suggests multi-dose oritavancin may prove advantageous for chronic osteomyelitis but further research is needed to define the optimal dose and frequency of oritavancin for the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis.[21]

History

Originally discovered and developed by Eli Lilly, oritavancin was acquired by InterMune in 2001 and then by Targanta Therapeutics in late 2005.[22] In December 2008, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declined to approve oritavancin without additional studies, and an EU application was withdrawn.

In 2009, The Medicines Company acquired the development rights, completed clinical trials and submitted a new drug application to the FDA in February 2014.[23] On August 6, 2014, the United States FDA approved oritavancin to treat skin infections.[24]

A marketing authorisation valid throughout the European Union was granted on 19 March 2015, for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections in adults.[25]
