BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori eradication regimens should be guided by antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The objective of this study was to evaluate the molecular-based Mosprie assay for detecting H. pylori resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin using gastric biopsies. METHODS: A total of 185 culture-positive frozen gastric biopsies were included for Mosprie assay and also for 23S rRNA and gyrA gene sequencing. The susceptibility results by the Mosprie assay were compared with the E-test results retrospectively retrieved. The discordant results were analyzed by sequencing of the 23S rRNA and gyrA genes. RESULTS: Susceptibility concordance between the Mosprie assay and E-test for clarithromycin and levofloxacin was 97.30% (180/185) and 88.11% (163/185), respectively. The full agreement between clarithromycin genotypes by Mosprie assay and the 23S rRNA sequencing results was observed in the 5 samples with discordant Mosprie assay and E-test results. However, for levofloxacin, of the 16 discordant samples with resistant phenotype but a susceptible genotype by Mosprie assay, 6 were found to have levofloxacin resistance-related gyrA gene mutations. CONCLUSIONS: The rapid and reliable Mosprie assay can be recommended for H. pylori susceptibility testing of clarithromycin and levofloxacin on gastric biopsies. Future technical improvements are needed in detecting levofloxacin resistance-associated gene mutations.
