The present invention relates to a synthetic saccharide of general formula (I) that is related to Klebsiella pneumoniae serotype O1, O2, O2ac, and O8 O-polysaccharide and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 O-polysaccharide and conjugate thereof. Said synthetic saccharide, said conjugate and pharmaceutical composition containing said synthetic saccharide or said conjugate are useful for prevention and/or treatment of diseases associated with Klebsiella pneumoniae. Furthermore, the synthetic saccharide of general formula (I) is useful as marker in immunological assays for detection of antibodies against Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria.

The invention is in the field of medical sciences. It provides new pharmaceutical methods and preparations. In particular, the invention relates to a method for increasing the oral bioavailability of drugs. The invention also provides new compositions comprising a drug covalently attached to a saccharide as in formula (I) below. More in particular, the invention relates to a method for increasing the oral bioavailability of a drug by covalently attaching a sugar-linked, N-substituted or unsubstituted carbamoylalkylidene moiety to a hydroxyl or thiol group of a drug, wherein the substituents are as defined in the claims. ##STR00001##
