In vitro efficacy of combinations of antibiotics used in clinical practice on clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori
Background
The main antibiotics used against Helicobacter pylori have been chosen empirically over time, with few preclinical studies to provide support. The rise in resistance to some of these antibiotics is prompting a reassessment of their use. This work aimed to evaluate the in vitro efficacy of 2 × 2 combinations of the most widely used antibiotics against H. pylori.
Materials and Methods
J99 reference strains and 19 clinical isolates of H. pylori with various antibiotic resistance phenotypes were used. Minimum inhibitory concentrations were carried out using the microdilution method in 96-well plates. The activity of 15 possible combinations of two antibiotics including amoxicillin, clarithromycin (CLA), levofloxacin, rifampicin, tetracycline, and metronidazole was determined for all strains by the checkerboard method. A mean fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICmean) was calculated for each combination and strain and the type of pharmacodynamic interaction was considered as synergic if FICmean ≤ 0.5, additive if 0.5 < FICmean ≤ 1, indifferent if 1 < FICmean < 4 or antagonistic if FICmean ≥ 4.
Results
Most of the 285 pharmacodynamic interactions tested with clinical strains were close to additivity (average FICmean = 0.89 [0.38–1.28]). No interaction was found to be antagonistic. When two antibiotics to which a strain was resistant were combined, the concentrations required to inhibit bacterial growth were higher than their respective breakpoints.
Conclusion
The present results have shown that in vitro, the different antibiotics used in therapeutics have additive effects. The addition of the effects of two antibiotics to which a strain was resistant was not sufficient to inhibit bacterial growth. In probabilistic treatment, the choice of antibiotics to combine should therefore be based on the local epidemiology of resistance, and on susceptibility testing in the case of CLA therapy, so that at least one antibiotic to which the strain is susceptible is used.

Helicobacter is edited by Professor David Y Graham. The editorial and peer review process is an independent process. Whenever there is a conflict of interest, the editor and editorial board will declare their interests and affiliations. Helicobacter recognises the critical role that has been established for Helicobacter pylori in peptic ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma, and primary gastric lymphoma. As new helicobacter species are now regularly being discovered, Helicobacter covers the entire range of helicobacter research, increasing communication among the fields of gastroenterology; microbiology; vaccine development; laboratory animal science.
