Cefepime-Taniborbactam and Ceftibuten-Ledaborbactam Maintain Activity Against KPC Variants that Lead to Ceftazidime-Avibactam Resistance
2024-10-11
Abstract excerpt
Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPCs) are widespread β-lactamases that are a major cause of clinical non-susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to carbapenems and other β-lactam antibiotics. Ceftazidime combined with the β-lactamase inhibitor avibactam (CAZ-AVI) has been effective for treating infections by KPC-producing bacteria, but emergent KPC variants confer resistance to the combination. Taniborbacta...
