Nacubactam (CAT: I008221) is a potent beta-lactamase inhibitor that enhances the activity of beta-lactam antibiotics against multidrug-resistant bacteria. By targeting and inhibiting various classes of beta-lactamases, enzymes responsible for antibiotic resistance, nacubactam restores the effectiveness of beta-lactam antibiotics. This compound shows promise in combating drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, including those resistant to carbapenems. Nacubactam, when used in combination with beta-lactam antibiotics, has potential applications in the treatment of infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria, offering a new therapeutic option in the fight against antibiotic resistance.

Overview of Clinical Research

Nacubactam  is a beta-lactamase inhibitor developed by Roche. The clinical trials in Bacterial infections (In volunteers) initiated in Japan (IV) before October 2020.
