Company context
We are a biotechnology company focused on leveraging unique, pioneering science to address unmet needs in the treatment of infectious diseases, improving patient outcomes, and significantly reducing the threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, including methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin resistant Enterococci species (VRE), and others. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a growing global health crisis, being directly responsible for 1.27 million deaths annually and contributing to nearly 5 million deaths worldwide. The rapid rise of resistant pathogens has rendered many existing antibiotics ineffective against these pathogens, increasing the risk of severe infections, prolonged hospital stays, and substantial economic burdens. Despite this urgent need, the development of new antibiotics has slowed, with most advancements occurring within existing drug classes, leaving these new compounds vulnerable to resistance mechanisms.
