Fosfomycin as Oral Transition Therapy Versus Continued Intravenous β-Lactams for Complicated Urinary Tract Infections Caused by Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacterales: A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Trial
By Seo JW, Kim DY, Yoon Y and 17 others.
Abstract
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales are an increasing cause of complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). Reliance on carbapenems to treat these infections accelerates resistance, underscoring the urgent need for effective oral transition options to preserve last-line agents and lessen healthcare burden.
