Telavancin Is Active against Experimental Aortic Valve Endocarditis Caused by Daptomycin- and Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strains

We compared the efficacy of telavancin (TLV) and daptomycin (DAP) in an experimental rabbit endocarditis model caused by two clinically derived daptomycin-resistant (DAP(r)) methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. TLV treatment significantly reduced MRSA densities in all target t...
