Abstract

The activity of a novel β-lactamase inhibitor combination, sulbactam-durlobactam (SUL-DUR), was tested against 87 colistin-resistant and/or cefiderocol-non-susceptible carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates collected from U.S. hospitals between 2017 and 2019. Among them, 89% and 97% were susceptible to SUL-DUR and imipenem plus SUL-DUR, with MIC(50)/MIC(90) values of 2 µg/mL/8 µg/mL and 1 µg/mL/4 µg/mL, respectively. The presence of amino acid substitutions in penicillin-binding protein 3, including previously reported A515V or T526S, was associated with SUL-DUR non-susceptibility.
