In vitro activity of sulbactam-durlobactam against carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and mechanisms of resistance [PDF]
Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-Ab), particularly strains producing oxacillinase (OXA)-type carbapenemases, have rapidly emerged in health care settings as a frequent cause of serious infections with limited treatment options. This study evaluated the in vitro activity of sulbactam (SUL) combined with durlobactam (DUR) against a ...

Characterizing the V516M penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) mutation causing zidebactam resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
The triple action of the diazabicyclooctane (DBO) zidebactam (antibacterial activity [penicillin-binding protein 2 {PBP2} inhibitor], β-lactam enhancement [synergy with PBP3 inhibitors], and β-lactamase inhibition [classes A and C]) provides a promising ...

Loss-of-Function Mutations in the Penicillin-Binding Protein PonA1 Confer Agar-Dependent Resistance to Durlobactam in Mycobacterium abscessus [PDF]
Background: Infections caused by the multidrug-resistant pathogen Mycobacterium abscessus (Mab) are notoriously difficult to treat. The novel β-lactamase inhibitor durlobactam, in combination with β-lactams, shows potent bactericidal activity against Mab,
