2247. Real-world Experience with Meropenem–Vaborbactam (M/V) for Treatment of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) Infections [PDF]
Aim: Meropenem-vaborbactam and delafloxacin activities were not assessed against Achromobacter spp. (Achr), Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (Smal). Methodology: A total of 106 Achr, 57 Bcc and 100 Smal were tested with gradient diffusion test of meropenem-vaborbactam, delafloxacin and comparators.

Epidemiology of Meropenem/Vaborbactam Resistance in KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Causing Bloodstream Infections in Northern Italy, 2018 [PDF]
Meropenem/Vaborbactam (MEM-VAB) is a novel carbapenem- β-lactamase inhibitor active against KPC-producing Enterobacteria. Herein, we evaluate the incidence of meropenem/vaborbactam-resistance among KPC-producing K.

Potency of Meropenem-Vaborbactam in Lung Surfactant [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study investigated whether pulmonary surfactant has an effect on the in vitro antibacterial activity of either meropenem alone or meropenem in combination with vaborbactam at a fixed concentration of 8 μg/ml against several Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC ...

Meropenem-Vaborbactam in the Treatment of Acute Bacterial Infections [PDF]
This study reports the integrated analysis of two phase III studies of meropenem-vaborbactam in the treatment of acute bacterial infections. Targeting Antibiotic Non-Susceptible Gram-Negative Organisms (TANGO) I compared the clinical efficacy and tolerability of meropenem-vaborbactam and piperacillin-tazobactam in the treatment of complicated urinary ...

Profiling interactions of vaborbactam with metallo-β-lactamases [PDF]
β-Lactams are the most successful antibacterials, yet their use is threatened by resistance, importantly as caused by β-lactamases. β-Lactamases fall into two mechanistic groups: the serine β-lactamases that utilise a covalent acyl-enzyme mechanism and the metallo β-lactamases that utilise a zinc-bound water nucleophile.
