Ceftazidime-avibactam or best available therapy in patients with ceftazidime-resistant Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa complicated urinary tract infections or complicated intra-abdominal infections (REPRISE): a randomised, pathogen-directed, phase 3 study [PDF]
Background Carbapenems are frequently the last line of defence in serious infections due to multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, but their use is threatened by the growing prevalence of carbapenemase-producing pathogens.

A blaKPC-2-carrying Citrobacter freundii isolate developed ceftazidime-avibactam resistance during treatment with this agent. The initial and follow-up isolates exhibited ceftazidime-avibactam MICs of 4 and 64 µg/ml, respectively. Overexpression of AcrAB-

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 ...

identifying allosteric networks to fight antibiotics resistance [PDF]
The rise of multi-drug resistance in bacterial pathogens is one of the grand challenges facing medical science. A major concern is the speed of development of β-lactamase-mediated resistance in Gram-negative species, thus putting at risk the efficacy of ...

621. In vitro Ceftazidime: Avibactam Resistance in Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Isolates [PDF]
Abstract Background Ceftazidime–avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a new antibiotic with activity against many Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). Although CAZ-AVI resistance in CRE has been reported, it is not consistently assessed. Our study aimed to assess the prevalence of CAZ-AVI resistance in CRE

Cephem Potentiation by Inactivation of Nonessential Genes Involved in Cell Wall Biogenesis of ß-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli [PDF]
Reversal of antimicrobial resistance is an appealing and largely unexplored strategy in drug discovery. The objective of this study was to identify potential targets for “helper” drugs reversing cephem resistance in Escherichia coli strains producing β ...
