Comment: Taniborbactam (VNRX-5133) is a clinical stage, injectable, broad-spectrum β-lactamase inhibitor [1,3]. It has activity against both serine- and metallo-β-lactamases (e.g. oxacillinase, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase, New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase, Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase and extended spectrum beta-lactamase) [4]. Taniborbactam will be administered alongside the cephalosporin antibacterial cefepime. It is being developed by Venatorx Pharmaceuticals in partnership with the Global Antibiotic Research & Development Partnership (GARDP).
