Patients with intra-abdominal infections differ with regard to the type of infection and the severity of illness. However, the impact of these factors, together with differences in drug exposure, on clinical response is not well understood. Using phase 2 and 3 data for patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections, the relative importance of tigecycline exposure, host factors, and disease factors, alone or in combination, for the probability of clinical response was examined. Patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections who received tigecycline intravenously as a 100-mg loading dose followed by 50 mg every 12 h for 5 to 14 days and who had adequate clinical, pharmacokinetic, and response data were evaluated. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with clinical response. A final multivariable logistic regression model demonstrated six factors based on 123 patients to be predictive of clinical success: a weight of <94 kg (P = 0.026), the absence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in baseline cultures (P = 0.021), an APACHE II score of <13 (P = 0.029), non-Hispanic race (P = 0.005), complicated appendicitis or cholecystitis (P = 0.004), and a ratio of the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) to the MIC (AUC/MIC ratio) of > or =3.1 (P = 0.003). The average model-predicted probability of clinical success when one unfavorable factor was present was 0.940. This probability was lower (0.855) when the AUC/MIC ratio was < 3.1 and the remaining five factors were set to the favorable condition. The average model-predicted probability of clinical success in the presence of two unfavorable factors was 0.594. These findings demonstrated the impact of individual and multiple factors on clinical response in the context of drug exposure.
