Emergence of ceftazidime/avibactam resistance in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in China [PDF]
The aim was to investigate the activity of ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ/AVI) against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and identify the resistance mechanisms before CAZ/AVI coming to Chinese market.Clinical CRKP isolates were continuously collected from 36 tertiary hospitals in China from 1 March 2017 to 31 July 2017.

Resistance to ceftazidime–avibactam and underlying mechanisms
Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a novel synthetic β-lactamase inhibitor combination. Although the combination has been available clinically for only a few years, cases of resistance to CAZ-AVI have already been reported.In the present review, we summarize the distribution of CAZ-AVI-resistant strains and the possible resistance mechanisms.There are ...

Molecular mechanisms underlying bacterial resistance to ceftazidime/avibactam
AbstractCeftazidime/avibactam (CAZ/AVI), a combination of ceftazidime and a novel β‐lactamase inhibitor (avibactam) that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Union, and the National Regulatory Administration in China. CAZ/AVI is used mainly to treat complicated urinary tract infections and complicated intra‐abdominal

OXA-48-Mediated Ceftazidime-Avibactam Resistance Is Associated with Evolutionary Trade-Offs [PDF]
Infections due to carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative pathogens are associated with limited treatment options and consequently lead to increased mortality and morbidity.

A Selective Medium for Screening Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance in Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales. [PDF]
Ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) is an alternative antibiotic used for the treatment of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). However, the CZA-resistant CRE strains have been detected worldwide. Therefore, it is critical to screen CZA-resistant CRE strains in colonized patients or a specific population so as to rapidly implement ...

In vivo emergence of cefiderocol and ceftazidime/avibactam cross-resistance in KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae following ceftazidime/avibactam -based therapies [PDF]
We described the emergence of ceftazidime/avibactam and cefiderocol cross-resistance in patients with KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae infections. All strains with ceftazidime/avibactam and cefiderocol cross-resistance showed point mutations on KPC Ω ...

Ceftazidime-avibactam in ceftazidime-resistant infections [PDF]
One of the important causes of the development of resistance to β-lactam drugs is their overuse. β-lactamase inhibitors have been combined with many β-lactam drugs to resume their efficacy since the emergence of multidrugresistant organisms. Yahuda Carmeli and colleagues recommended the combination of ceftazidimeavibactam as a potential alternative to ...
