Sulbactam-durlobactam: A Step Forward in Treating Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) Infections

Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance in gram-negative pathogens, such as Acinetobacter baumannii, is a serious threat to human health. Sulbactam-durlobactam, a unique β-lactam and a β-lactamase inhibitor combination, is a novel agent targeted against carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. This supplement provides a summary of the development of SUL-DUR, discussing its unique features and role in treating infections caused by CRAB pathogens.
