Summary

This study is testing the safety and how the body handles Vaborem, a combination of two antibiotics (meropenem and vaborbactam), in children from birth to under 18 years old who have serious Gram-negative bacterial infections. All 44 participants will receive the drug intravenously every 8 hours for up to 14 days. The goal is to find the right dose and ensure it is safe for children.

What this could lead to
