Abstract
This article demonstrates the efficacy of cefiderocol against a large collection of well-characterized metallo-beta-lactamase-producing isolates, some of them even producing double carbapenemases. Furthermore, cefiderocol activity is compared to other novel broad-spectrum antimicrobials with activity against carbapenemases.
