In Vitro Activity of Ceftibuten/VNRX-5236 against Urinary Tract Infection Isolates of Antimicrobial-Resistant Enterobacterales

Abstract

Ceftibuten/VNRX-7145 is a cephalosporin/boronate β-lactamase inhibitor combination under development as an oral treatment for complicated urinary tract infections caused by Enterobacterales producing serine β-lactamases (Ambler class A, C, and D). In vivo , VNRX-7145 (VNRX-5236 etzadroxil) is cleaved to the active inhibitor, VNRX-5236. We assessed the in vitro activity of ceftibuten/VNRX-5236 against 1,066 urinary isolates of Enterobacterales from a 2014–2016 global culture collection.
