The new diazabicyclooctane-based β-lactamase inhibitors avibactam and relebactam improve thein vitro activity of β-lactam antibiotics against bacteria of theMycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC). Here, we evaluated thein vitro activities of two newer diazabicyclooctane-based β-lactamase inhibitors in clinical development, nacubactam and zidebactam, with β-lactams against clinical isolates of MABC.
