Ceftazidime-avibactam versus meropenem in nosocomial pneumonia, including ventilator-associated pneumonia (REPROVE): a randomised, double-blind, phase 3 non-inferiority trial
Antoni Torres,Nan Shan Zhong,Jan Pachl,Jean-François Timsit,Marin H. Kollef,Zhangjing Chen,Jie Song,Dianna Taylor,Peter J. Laud,Gregory G. Stone,Joseph W. Chow +10 more
TL;DR: A role for ceftazidime-avibactam is supported as a potential alternative to carbapenems in patients with nosocomial pneumonia (including ventilator-associated pneumonia) caused by Gram-negative pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized Trial of Ceftazidime-Avibactam vs Meropenem for Treatment of Hospital-Acquired and Ventilator-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia (REPROVE): Analyses per US FDA–Specified End Points
Antoni Torres,Doug Rank,David Melnick,Ludmyla Rekeda,Xiang Chen,Todd Riccobene,Ian A. Critchley,Hassan D Lakkis,Dianna Taylor,Angela K Talley +9 more
TL;DR: CAZ-AVI provides an important new treatment option for HAP/VAP due to Gram-negative pathogens, including CAZ-nonsusceptible strains.

TL;DR: This paper presents a framework for management of distributed applications and systems based on a set of common management services that support management activities, which include monitoring, control, configuration, and data repository services.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Vitro Activity of Ceftazidime-Avibactam Against Isolates from Respiratory and Blood Specimens from Patients with Nosocomial Pneumonia, including Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia, in a Phase 3 Clinical Trial.

TL;DR: In vitro susceptibility was determined at a central laboratory using Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute broth microdilution methods and demonstrated that ceftazidime-avibactam was active in vitro against the majority of Enterobacteriaceae and P. aeruginosa isolates from patients with NP, including VAP, in a phase 3 trial.
