Bacteriophage Therapy in Patients With Urinary Tract Infections

March 1, 2023 updated by: Adaptive Phage Therapeutics, Inc.

A Phase I/II Study of Bacteriophage Therapy to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Targeted "Personalized" Bacteriophage Treatments in Patients With Bacterial Infection of the Urinary Tract

This is a phase I/II trial designed to evaluate bacteriophage therapy in patients with urinary tract infections.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of bacteriophage therapy in patients with urinary tract infection (UTI). Patients to be enrolled will have urinary tract infections due to E. coli and K. pneumoniae. This will include asymptomatic patients with neurogenic bladder and symptomatic patients with complicated urinary tract infections who are at risk of UTI recurrence. Patients will be followed for bacterial clearance or recurrence of urinary tract infection.
