Occurrence of Aztreonam-Avibactam-Resistant NDM-5-Producing Escherichia coli in the Food Chain
Among the most common metallo-β-lactamases (MBL), the most clinically significant are the New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamases (NDM). NDM enzymes hydrolyze almost all β-lactams except aztreonam and are not inhibited by novel β-lactamase inhibitors such as avibactam (AVI), relebactam, and vaborbactam (1).….

The 2018 Garrod Lecture: Preparing for the Black Swans of Resistance [PDF]
The need for governments to encourage antibiotic development is widely agreed, with ‘Market Entry Rewards’ being suggested. Unless these are to be spread widely – which is unlikely given the $1 billion sums proposed– we should be wary, for this approach ...

Pilot Program for Aztreonam-Avibactam Susceptibility Testing of Metallo-Beta-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Background: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are a major public health concern because they typically display multidrug resistance and they cause hard-to-treat infections. Organisms harboring metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) pose a critical challenge in clinical practice because they confer resistance to nearly all β-lactams, including ...

Activity of OP0595-β-lactam combination against Gram-negative bacteria with extended-spectrum, AmpC and carbapenem-hydrolysing β-lactama [PDF]
Background: OP0595 is a diazabicyclooctane that (i) acts as a PBP2-ctive antibacterial, (ii) inhibits Class A and C β-lactamases and (iii), like mecillinam, gives β-lactamase-independent potentiation of β-lactams targeting other PBPs.

Antimicrobial Activities of Aztreonam-Avibactam and Comparator Agents against Contemporary (2016) Clinical Enterobacteriaceae Isolates [PDF]
ABSTRACT A total of 10,451 contemporary (2016) Enterobacteriaceae isolates from 84 U.S. medical centers and 116 metallo-β-lactamase- and/or OXA-48-like-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates from other countries were tested against aztreonam-avibactam and comparators.

An Epidemiological and Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic Investigation into the Impact of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales [PDF]
Background: According to the 2019 CDC Antibiotic Resistance Threats Report, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur in the United States each year, leading to more than 35,000 deaths.

Pharmacodynamic modelling of β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor checkerboard data: illustration with aztreonam–avibactam [PDF]
Checkerboard experiments followed by fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index determinations are commonly used to assess in vitro pharmacodynamic interactions between combined antibiotics, but FIC index cannot be determined in case of antibiotic/non-active compound combinations.
