Cross-resistance to cefiderocol and ceftazidime–avibactam in KPC β-lactamase mutants and the inoculum effect
26 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
Objectives Ceftazidime–avibactam (CZA) and cefiderocol are recently commercialized molecules active against highly drug-resistant bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant members of the Enterobacteriaceae. Mutants resistant to CZA have been described, notably in Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) producers. Considering the structural similarities between ceftazidime and cefiderocol, we hypothesized that...
