Acquisition of resistance to ceftazidime-avibactam during infection treatment in Pseudomonas aeruginosa through D179Y mutation in one of two blaKPC-2 gene copies without losing carbapenem resistance
Ceftazidime/Avibactam (CAZ/AVI) is frequently used to treat KPC-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (KPC-PA) and Enterobacterales. CAZ/AVI resistance is driven by several mechanisms. In P. aeruginosa this mainly occurs through alteration of AmpC, porins, and/or efflux pump overexpression, whereas in En...
