Ceftazidime-avibactam is the first antimicrobial approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. Avibactam, a non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor, inactivates class A serine carbapenemases, including Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC). We report a KPC-producing K. pneumoniae isolate resistant to ceftazidime-avibactam (MIC, 32/4 μg/ml) from a patient with no prior treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam.
头孢他啶-阿维巴坦是美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准用于治疗耐碳青霉烯类肠杆菌科细菌的首个抗菌药物。阿维巴坦是一种非β-内酰胺类β-内酰胺酶抑制剂,可使包括肺炎克雷伯菌碳青霉烯酶(KPC)在内的A类丝氨酸碳青霉烯酶失活。我们报告了1株产KPC的肺炎克雷伯菌分离株,该菌株对头孢他啶-阿维巴坦耐药(MIC为32/4 μg/ml),分离自1例既往未接受过头孢他啶-阿维巴坦治疗的患者。
