Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the AmpC-AmpR region are associated with treatment-emergent ceftolozane-tazobactam (TOL-TAZ) and ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) resistance. We sought to determine if these mutations impact susceptibility to the novel cephalosporin-siderophore compound cefiderocol. METHODS: isolates available after TOL-TAZ exposure from January 2019 to December 2020 were included. TOL-TAZ, CAZ-AVI,...
