A fifth-generation cephalosporin prodrug that is converted to active ceftaroline in the body, uniquely active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) by binding to altered penicillin-binding protein PBP2a. It is approved for community-acquired bacterial pneumonia and acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections. It represents an important option in the treatment of MRSA without requiring glycopeptide therapy.

Mecanismo de acción

Disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis. The resulting cell wall defects cause osmotic instability and bacteriolysis.
