In vitro activity of cefiderocol against carbapenemase-producing and meropenem-non-susceptible Gram-negative bacteria collected in the Japan Antimicrobial Resistant Bacterial Surveillance

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The treatment options available for infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens are often limited. Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel siderophore cephalosporin that exhibits activity against these pathogens. Several studies have reported the in vitro activity of CFDC against isolates from Europe, the United States, and China, but the activity against carbapenem-resistant bacteria with...
