Popis: WCK 5222 is a novel β-lactam–β-lactam-enhancer combination of cefepime (FEP) and zidebactam (ZID). ZID is a novel β-lactam enhancer with a dual action of binding to Gram-negative penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) and β-lactamase inhibition. WCK 5222 is being developed as a new therapeutic option for the treatment of complicated multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogen infections. We investigated the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of WCK 5222 in 48 subjects based on Cockcroft-Gault-estimated creatinine clearance (CL(CR)). We enrolled mild (n = 6; CL(CR), 60 to
