DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2019.105863
Abstract: Cefepime/zidebactam (WCK 5222), a β-lactam/β-lactam enhancer antibiotic under development, was designed to retain in vitro activity against Enterobacteriaceae that simultaneously produce metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) and serine-β-lactamase (SBL). Currently, aztreonam (ATM) plus ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) or meropenem/vaborbactam (M/V)… read more here.

Low-Level Cefepime Exposure Induces High-Level Resistance in Environmental Bacteria: Molecular Mechanism and Evolutionary Dynamics.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Environmental science & technology"
DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.2c00793
Abstract: Antibiotics exert selective pressures on clinically relevant antibiotic resistance. It is critical to understand how antibiotic resistance evolves in environmental microbes exposed to subinhibitory concentrations of antibiotics and whether evolutionary dynamics and emergence of resistance… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkac446
Abstract: Abstract Background Cefepime/taniborbactam is a cephalosporin/bicyclic boronate β-lactamase inhibitor combination in clinical development for nosocomial pneumonia due to MDR Gram-negative bacteria. A murine pneumonia model was used to characterize cefepime/taniborbactam in vivo pharmacodynamics against Enterobacterales… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofz079
Abstract: Abstract Background Data suggest that vancomycin + β-lactam combinations improve clearance of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infections (BSIs). However, it is unclear which specific β-lactams confer benefit. This analysis evaluates the impact of concomitant… read more here.
