Review of Ceftazidime-Avibactam for the Treatment of Infections Caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic Gram-negative pathogen that causes a range of serious infections that are often challenging to treat, as this pathogen can express multiple resistance mechanisms, including multidrug-resistant (MDR) and ...

Emergence of Ceftazidime-Avibactam-Induced KPC Variants (KPC-25/127) in Intracranial Infection and Implications for Clinical Management. [PDF]
Novel KPC‐25 and first‐reported KPC‐127 sequentially evolved in one patient under CAZ‐AVI pressure, distinct mutations remodel enzyme activity to drive differential multidrug resistance. ABSTRACT The emergence of novel Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) variants contributing to clinical treatment failure poses a substantial threat to public ...

Successful Rapid Desensitization to Ceftazidime/Avibactam in a Patient With Cystic Fibrosis and Multidrug-Resistant <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Pneumonia: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ‐AVI) is an important therapeutic option for multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections; however, hypersensitivity reactions may preclude its use and create significant therapeutic challenges. We report a 21‐year‐old woman with cystic fibrosis and recurrent MDR P.
