Taniborbactam (development code VNRX-5133) is a pharmaceutical drug that acts as a β-lactamase inhibitor.[1] It inhibits the function of bacterial β-lactamases which impart resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. However, unlike other β-lactamase inhibitors that are used as pharmaceuticals, taniborbactam is effective against enzymes of the New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1 group which are the most frequently identified sources of acquired antibiotic resistance worldwide.[2]
Taniborbactam, in combination with cefepime, is in clinical trials for the treatment of bacterial infections, including urinary tract infection and pyelonephritis.[3][4]
