• Increased use of linezolid due to prevalence of drug-resistant Grampositive pathogens
• Has activity against clinically important Gram-positive pathogens
– Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE)
– Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
• Drug Class: Oxazolidinone
– Inhibits bacterial protein synthesis
• Binds to 23S rRNA in the large ribosomal subunit
• Preventing the fusion of 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits
• Bacteriostatic
– Lacks cross-resistance to other classes of drugs

Linezolid safety
Drug-induced thrombocytopenia
• Generally well-tolerated
• Primary safety concerns:
• Difficult to differentiate from other causes of thrombocytopenia
– Rule out other medical causes
– Medications associated with thrombocytopenia should be
discontinued
• May present with:
– Bruising, petechiae, and epistaxis
– Purpura and gingival bleeding
– Gastrointestinal/urinary tract bleeding, and pulmonary
hemorrhage
Warning
Myelosuppression
Comments
Anemia, leukopenia, pancytopenia, and thrombocytopenia
Neurological toxicity
Peripheral and optic neuropathy
Serotonin Syndrome
Associated with the co-administration of serotonergic agents
Lactic Acidosis
Increased blood lactate levels (0.4–5 mmol/L) with metabolic
acidosis

Linezolid induced thrombocytopenia
• Can lead to:
– Discontinuation of treatment
– Platelet transfusions
• Similarities between bacterial and
mitochondrial ribosomes
– 23S RNA target in prokaryotes
and genetically related
mitochondrial protein in
mammals
– Suppress protein synthesis in
the mitochondrial respiratory
chain within the bone marrow
• Reversible after discontinuation

Summary of current literature
• Wide variable incidence of thrombocytopenia
– Incidence ranges from 2.4-50%
– Lack of a standard definition for thrombocytopenia
– Differing patient populations
– Sample sizes
– Different durations of therapy
• Risk factors:
– Onset is after 10-14 days of therapy
– Renal insufficiency
• Studied in Japan/China
• Risk factors have not been adequately studied in an urban
community setting

Potential risk factors analyzed:
• Demographics
• Comorbidities
• Severity of illness measures
• Drug exposures
Patient demographics
• Interim analysis:
– Categorical variables
• Fisher’s exact test
– Continuous variables
• Student’s t test for normally distributed data

• Limitations
– Interim analysis
– Retrospective
– Electronic medical record
limitations
– Numerous confounding
factors in thrombocytopenia
• Benefits
– Large population
– First risk factor analysis in
urban community setting in
the United States
– First analysis on the impact
of definition on incidence

Conclusions
• Incidence
• Thrombocytopenia occurred in 27% of our patients
• Ranged from 7.5%-30% based on definition
• Risk factors:
• ICU patients
• No statistical difference was seen between groups for: body
weight, creatinine clearance, and baseline platelet count
• Future directions:
• Larger analysis to be completed by the end of 2015
• Multivariate analysis with primary definition
• Analyze impact of definition on risk factors
