The management of infections with New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (NDM)-producing bacteria remains clinically challenging given the multidrug resistant (MDR) phenotype associated with these bacteria. Despite resistancein vitro , ceftazidime-avibactam previously demonstratedin vivo activity against NDM-positiveEnterobacteriaceae . Herein, we observedin vitro synergy with ceftazidime-avibactam and aztreonam against an MDRKlebsiella pneumoniae harboring NDM.In vivo , humanized doses of ceftazidime-avibactam monotherapy resulted in >2 log10 CFU bacterial reduction; therefore, noin vivo synergy was observed.
