Sponsor's own description

Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections are a growing national and international challenge in healthcare settings. This is not only due to the rapid spread of resistance and paucity of options of targeted-antimicrobial agents, but also owing to the high mortality of patients infected with CRE reaching up to 50% as per the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. Colistin-based combination regimens have been the mainstay for treating CRE-related infections. Ceftazidime-avibactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor combination, a novel antibiotic, which recently showed a better clinical and microbiological cure against CRE along with the potential to reduce mortality and nephrotoxicity in comparison to colistin-based regimens in observational studies. However, randomized clinical trials are lacking. This non-inferiority randomized controlled study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of ceftazidime-avibactam-based regimens in critically ill patients with CRE infections in comparison to colistin-based regimens.
