The choice of best therapeutic strategy for difficult-to-treat resistance (DTR) Gram-negative infections currently represents an unmet clinical need. This review provides a critical reappraisal of real-world evidence supporting the role of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) optimization of novel beta-lactams in the management of DTR Gram-negative infections. The aim was to focus on prolonged and/or continuous infusion administration, penetration rates into deep-seated infections, and maximization of PK/PD targets in special renal patient populations. Retrieved findings were applied to the three most critical clinical scenarios of Gram-negative resistance phenotypes (i.e. carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales; difficult-to-treat resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii). Several studies supported the role of PK/PD optimization of beta-lactams in the management of DTR Gram-negative infections for both maximizing clinical efficacy and preventing resistance emergence. Optimizing antimicrobial therapy with novel beta-lactams based on the so called 'antimicrobial therapy puzzle' PK/PD concepts may represent a definitive jump into the future toward a personalized patient management of DTR Gram negative infections. Establishing a dedicated and coordinated multidisciplinary team and implementing a real-time TDM-guided personalized antimicrobial exposure optimization of novel beta-lactams based on expert clinical pharmacological interpretation, could represent crucial cornerstones for the proper management of DTR Gram-negative infections.
