Among new licensed agents, beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations feature prominently. New inhibitors are being developed and rolled out, and knowledge is accumulating about the complex PK/PD of the combinations. This symposium aims to update the attendees with the latest important knowledge on these combination agents including clinical experience with the new combinations with broad-spectrum cephalosporins and carbapenems, the properties of older compared to the new inhibitors such as relebactam, enmetazobactam and durlobactam; the issues around determining the PK/PD of the combinations and the resulting challenges in setting breakpoints.
