Background Through improved understanding of the structure-activity relationship attributes of fluoroquinolones, molecule development has improved efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the class. Adverse events (AEs) associated with the fluoroquinolones are well defined and a prospective part of the development process. However, not all...

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance threatens current clinical practice across a range of infection types. Delafloxacin, a non-zwitterionic fluoroquinolone recently approved by the US FDA for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections, has been developed to address some of these challenges.

Introduction: Infections due to Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are associated with increased morbidity and high mortality. Meropenem–vaborbactam (MV) is a novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination active against KPC-producing Enterobacteriaceae. The aim of this post hoc analysis of the TANGO-II...
