The Effect of β-Lactam Antibiotics on the Evolution of Ceftazidime/Avibactam and Cefiderocol Resistance in KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae

In this study, we aimed to clarify the evolutionary trajectory of a Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) population during β-lactam antibiotic therapy. Five KPC-Kp isolates were collected from a single patient.
