Recent trends and challenges to overcome Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections

Introduction Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is a Gram-negative bacterium that can cause a wide range of severe infections in immunocompromised patients. The most difficult challenge is due to its ability to rapidly develop multi drug-resistance. New strategies are urgently required to improve the outcome of patients with PA infections. The present patent review highlights the new molecules acting on different targets involved in the antibiotic resistance.
