Safety of Combined Intravenous Antibiotic and Bacteriophage Therapy in Adults With Cystic Fibrosis and Antibiotic-Resistant Lung Infections

This is a Phase 1, open-label, multi-center pilot study evaluating the safety and microbiological activity of intravenous (IV) bacteriophage therapy in combination with standard IV antibiotics in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF) experiencing pulmonary exacerbations due to antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. Eligible participants will receive a 7-day course of IV antibiotics, selected by their treating clinician, along with a phage cocktail specifically formulated to target their identified bacterial pathogen (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella spp., Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, or Achromobacter xylosoxidans). The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of this combined treatment approach. Secondary and exploratory outcomes include assessment of changes in sputum bacterial burden, lung function (spirometry and oscillometry), quality of life, and bacteriophage pharmacokinetics. Results from this study will inform the feasibility and design of future clinical trials using phage therapy in the CF population.

An Open-label, Dose-finding, Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Bivalent Klebsiella Pneumoniae Vaccine (CHO-V08) in Healthy Adults

CHO-V08 is currently being developed as a prevention vaccine against nosocomial and community-acquired infection caused by hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae K1 and K2 serotypes. The goal of study (KLEBBI-001) is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of the preventive vaccine of CHO-V08 in healthy volunteers aged from 18 to 50 years old.
