Use of Cefiderocol in Adult Patients: Descriptive Analysis from a Prospective, Multicenter, Cohort Study [PDF]
Introduction Cefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin showing activity against various carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB). No data currently exist about real-world use of cefiderocol in terms of types of therapy (e.g., empirical or ...

Disc Diffusion and ComASP® Cefiderocol Microdilution Panel to Overcome the Challenge of Cefiderocol Susceptibility Testing in Clinical Laboratory Routine [PDF]
Cefiderocol susceptibility testing represents a major challenge for clinical microbiology. Although disc diffusion showed robustness to test cefiderocol susceptibility, large areas of technical uncertainty (ATU) are reported by current EUCAST breakpoints.

Clinical experience of cefiderocol [PDF]
Infections by antibiotic-resistant microorganisms could be considered a “stealth pandemic” that we fight daily in most hospitals. Some estimates suggest that today 700,000 deaths per year can be attributed to antimicrobial resistance. By the year 2050, it is estimated that this will increase to ten million deaths per year as a result of infections by ...

Synergistic Activity of Cefiderocol in Combination with Avibactam, Sulbactam or Tazobactam against Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria [PDF]
We investigated the activity of cefiderocol/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations against clinical strains with different susceptibility profiles to cefiderocol to explore the potentiality of antibiotic combinations as a strategy to contain the major public

Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Bacterial Infections With an Enterobactin Analog to Monitor Treatment Efficacy With a Catechol Antibiotic. [PDF]
Synopsis. The [68Ga]GaIII‐TREN‐CAM radiochelate selectively accumulates in Gram‐negative sites of infection and noninvasively monitors treatment response a siderophore antibiotic. ABSTRACT Positron emission tomography (PET) is an emerging tool under clinical investigation for the detection of bacterial infections.

Comparison of Disk Diffusion, E-Test, and Broth Microdilution Methods for Testing In Vitro Activity of Cefiderocol in Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
The reference method for cefiderocol antimicrobial susceptibility testing is broth microdilution (BMD) with iron-depleted-Mueller-Hinton (ID-MH) medium, whereas breakpoints recommended for disk diffusion (DD) are based on MH-agar plates.
