In-Vitro Selection of Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance in OXA-48-Like-Expressing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>: In-Vitro and In-Vivo Fitness, Genetic Basis and Activities of β-Lactam Plus Novel β-Lactamase Inhibitor or β-Lactam Enhancer Combinations

In-Vitro Selection of Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance in OXA-48-Like-Expressing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>: In-Vitro and In-Vivo Fitness, Genetic Basis and Activities of β-Lactam Plus Novel β-Lactamase Inhibitor or β-Lactam Enhancer Combinations

Ceftazidime/avibactam uniquely demonstrates activity against both KPC and OXA-48-like carbapenemase-expressing Enterobacterales. Clinical resistance to ceftazidime/avibactam in KPC-producers was foreseen in in-vitro resistance studies. Herein, we assessed the resistance selection propensity of cefta...
