Cefiderocol Resistance Conferred by Plasmid-Located Ferric Citrate Transport System in KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae

Cefiderocol (FDC), a siderophore-cephalosporin conjugate, is the newest option for treating infection with carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria. We identified a novel mechanism contributing to decreased FDC susceptibility in Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates. The mechanism involves 2 c...
