EXBLIFEP is a fixed-dose combination of cefepime (a fourth-generation cephalosporin) and enmetazobactam (a beta-lactamase inhibitor) administered intravenously. It treats moderate-to-severe pneumonia, complicated urinary tract infections including pyelonephritis, complicated skin and skin structure infections, and complicated intra-abdominal infections caused by susceptible gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The combination works by disrupting bacterial cell wall synthesis while the beta-lactamase inhibitor protects cefepime from enzymatic degradation.
Recent 2024 approval positions EXBLIFEP in early growth phase with opportunity to build market presence against established competitors in the IV beta-lactam antibiotic space.
