The clinical study conducted at four external sites followed the requirements detailed in the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and International Standards Organization (ISO) guidance documents and included clinical, challenge, quality, and reproducibility studies. In this multisite study, a total of 979 Enterobacterales isolates were tested. The VITEK 2 card minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results were compared with the reference BMD MIC results. The performance following ISO criteria indicated Essential Agreement (EA) = 97.8% and showed that VITEK 2 plazomicin MIC results for Enterobacterales tend to be in exact agreement when compared with the CLSI BMD reference method, except for <i>Escherichia coli,</i> when MICs tend to be in exact agreement or at least one doubling dilution lower. The analysis was also performed following the FDA criteria using the breakpoints defined by the FDA: ≤2 susceptible (S), 4 intermediate (I), and ≥8 resistant (R) for Enterobacterales. The analysis showed the following performance: EA = 98.7%, category agreement (CA) = 99.4%, and major errors (ME) = 0.1%, with no very major errors (VME) present. There are three species, <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, <i>Escherichia coli,</i> and <i>Serratia marcescens,</i> for which the trend is ≥ 30% and therefore addressed as a note in the US label.

Clarithromycin and amikacin are considered cornerstone drugs for MAB treatment due to their superior efficacy; however, assessing clarithromycin susceptibility typically takes 7 to 14 days because of inducible macrolide resistance. We developed a 48 h luciferase reporter mycobacteriophage drug susceptibility testing (LRM-DST) assay using TM4::&lt;i&gt;GeNL&lt;/i&gt; to evaluate MAB drug susceptibility. For this proof-of-principle study, we performed DST on 26 MAB clinical isolates using TM4::&lt;i&gt;GeNL&lt;/i&gt; and Sensititre RAPMYCO2 plates. Genome sequencing was performed to identify the MAB sub-species and for understanding intrinsic and acquired drug resistance mechanisms. We detected clarithromycin resistance in 12/26 (46%) by both Sensititre and LRM-DST. All clarithromycin-resistant isolates carried full-length inducible erythromycin ribosomal methylase-41 [&lt;i&gt;erm(41&lt;/i&gt;)] gene, and none had &lt;i&gt;rrl&lt;/i&gt; (23S rRNA) mutations. Amikacin resistance or intermediate amikacin resistance was detected in 6/26 (23%) isolates.

LRM-DST results were in 100% and 92.3% concordance with Sensititre DST results of clarithromycin (kappa coefficient, 1.0; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.84 to 1.0) and amikacin (kappa coefficient, 0.752; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.43 to 1.0). In addition, LRM-DST results for bedaquiline, moxifloxacin, imipenem, linezolid, and cefoxitin correlated well with Sensititre DST. Our findings suggest that LRM-DST can provide reliable phenotypic MAB-DST information in 48 h for prompt clinical management.IMPORTANCE&lt;i&gt;Mycobacterium abscessus&lt;/i&gt; (MAB) is a notorious human pathogen causing severe infections in individuals with cystic fibrosis and immunocompromised patients. Treatment options for MAB are very limited as they are resistant to multiple drugs through intrinsic and acquired resistance mechanisms. While macrolides and amikacin are the key drugs in the fight against MAB infections, emerging drug resistance is compromising their efficacy. Current growth-based drug susceptibility testing (DST) method takes 7 to 14 days to identify clarithromycin susceptibility due to the presence of inducible macrolide resistance and 3 to 5 days for other drugs. We developed a novel luciferase reporter mycobacteriophage (LRM) based phenotypic DST method using TM4::&lt;i&gt;GeNL&lt;/i&gt; to assess MAB drug susceptibility based on metabolic inhibition rather than growth.

We targeted three motifs conserved among all strains in the last 60 years. The assay achieved 100% (281/281) sensitivity and 100% (344/344) specificity when tested with a collection of 625 respiratory specimens, compared to the gold-standard EV semi-nested VP1 PCR and sequencing assay (snPCR/Seq). CDC2022 gave negative results with 289/289 non-target viruses, including 104 EV A-D isolates, 165 rhinovirus (RV) isolates or clinical specimens, and 14 other common respiratory viruses. The limit of detection (LOD) of the CDC2022 assay is 361 copies per reaction, as determined using serially diluted RNA transcripts.

An <i>in silico</i> \"phylo-primer-mismatch\" analysis was performed to visualize primer/probe mismatches and to compare CDC2022 with other EV-D68 rRT-PCR assays.

Exhaled breath aerosols (XBA), a major route of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> (MTB) transmission, offer a promising non-invasive alternative. This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and feasibility of the AveloMask-a novel point-of-care breath aerosol collection kit-for detecting active pulmonary TB using quantitative PCR (qPCR). In a pilot diagnostic accuracy study, 61 symptomatic, adult outpatients in Cape Town, South Africa, wore the mask for 45 min, coughing deeply at the start and end. XBAs were collected on integrated fiber filters transferred into stabilizing buffer via a simple push step and biobanked. XBA's were batch-analyzed by qPCR targeting the MTB-specific <i>IS6110</i> sequence. Diagnostic accuracy was assessed against sputum Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra (SXRS) and a composite microbiological reference standard (MRS), including culture. Of the 58 evaluable participants, 59% (34/58) had confirmed TB. Compared with SXRS, mask qPCR showed 71.0% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 53.4%-83.9%) sensitivity and 92.3% (95% CI:75.9%-97.9%) specificity. Against MRS, sensitivity was 64.7% (95% CI: 47.9%-78.5%) and specificity 91.7% (95% CI: 74.2%-97.7%). Sensitivity increased with bacterial load, reaching 100% in sputum with high MTB concentrations. MTB <i>IS6110</i> copy numbers in XBAs were low overall (175 copies [4-2,147]), likely due to insufficient DNA recovery or low aerosol bacilli. The mask sampling was well-tolerated by users.

By offering a non-invasive alternative to sputum, the AveloMask Kit addresses a critical diagnostic gap and could expand access to TB testing, particularly in resource-limited or primary care settings.
