Resumen

Las infecciones por bacterias grampositivas tienen una gran morbimortalidad entre los pacientes ancianos y, en muchas ocasiones, suponen un verdadero reto para los profesionales que atienden a estos pacientes. A pesar de que este grupo poblacional concentra más del 50% de los pacientes que han recibido tratamiento con daptomicina tras su comercialización, hay muy pocos datos acerca de la eficacia y seguridad en ancianos. El análisis de los pacientes mayores de 65 años incluidos en los registros CORE (Cubicin Outcomes Registry and Experience), estudio multicéntrico, retrospectivo, diseñado para recoger datos clínicos poscomercialización de los pacientes que han recibido daptomicina, y de su versión europea, EUCORE, muestra unas tasas de eficacia y una seguridad comparables a las de los pacientes más jóvenes, por lo que la daptomicina siempre debe considerarse una opción en el tratamiento de las infecciones graves por grampositivos.

Abstract

Serious Gram-positive bacterial infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults and can pose a significant challenge to clinicians. Although more than 50% of patients treated with daptomycin are > 65 years old, there are few data evaluating the efficacy and safety of daptomcyn in this population. Analysis of data from patients > 65 years old included in the Cubicin Outcomes Registry and Experience (CORE), a multicenter, retrospective registry designed to collect post-marketing clinical data on patients who received daptomycin, and in its European version, the EUCORE, showed similar rates of efficacy and safety in this population to those in younger patients, suggesting that daptomycin is also a valuable option in older patients with serious Gram-positive infections.
