Humanized Exposures of Cefiderocol, a Siderophore Cephalosporin, Display Sustained in vivo Activity against Siderophore-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
We evaluated the in vivo efficacy of humanized exposures of cefiderocol, a novel siderophore cephalosporin, against a test panel of P. aeruginosa (PSA) previously shown to develop resistance to 2 preclinical candidate siderophores (MB-1 and SMC-3176). In the thigh infection model, the PSA bacterial density in untreated controls grew from 5.54 ± 0.23 to 8.68 ± 0.57 log10 CFU over 24 h. The humanized cefiderocol...
