An Enzybiotic Regimen for the Treatment of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Orthopaedic Device-Related Infection

Abstract: Orthopaedic device-related infection (ODRI) presents a significant challenge to the field of orthopaedic and trauma surgery. Despite extensive treatment involving surgical debridement and prolonged antibiotic therapy, outcomes remain poor. This is largely due to the unique abilities of Staphylococcus aureus, the most common causative agent of ODRI, to establish and protect itself within the host by forming biofilms on implanted devices and staphylococcal abscess communities (SACs). There is a need for novel an… Show more

“…Future directions to improve the hydrogel may be to broaden the spectrum of application of the hydrogel to Gram negative pathogens, and to achieve synergy ( Watanakunakorn and Tisone, 1982 ). In addition, the hydrogel may be suitable for loading with novel antimicrobials, including bacteriophage and phage-derived enzymes such as peptidoglycan hydrolases ( Onsea et al., 2020 ; Rotman et al., 2020 ; Sumrall et al., 2021 ). Increasing the spectrum of targeted pathogens is important to given low virulence infections due to Coagulase-negative Staphylococci and Cutibacterium acnes are increasing being recognised as causes of prosthesis loosening, non-union and post-operative pain ( Foster et al., 2021 ).…”

“…To date, the in vivo evaluation of depolymerase efficacy has been limited to animal tests 68 . This section will summarize the preclinical findings of diverse reported recombinant depolymerases against several MDR pathogens in animal infection models ( Table 1 ) 11 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 64 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 . In summary, depolymerases with proper dose regimens were safe and effective as antimicrobials in vivo.…”

“…Tobramycin (TOB, T) and vancomycin (VAN, V) are often administered for MRSA-related infections. However, increasing reports have indicated resistance to TOB ( Zalavras et al, 2004 ; Jackson et al, 2021 ; Sumrall et al, 2021 ). Likewise, although VAN has been considered the “backbone” against MRSA-related infections, serious concerns have been raised regarding its limitations, such as the low therapeutic index, limited tissue penetration, slow bactericidal activity, as well as the increasing reports of resistance and treatment failure ( Bruniera et al, 2015 ).…”
