Lyon (France) and Cambridge (MA, US), September 19, 2023 – 07:00 a.m. CEST – PHAXIAM Therapeutics (Nasdaq & Euronext: FR0011471135), today announces the launch of a new preclinical development targeting a strong antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, Klebsiella pneumonia. Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) causes a wide range of infections, including pneumonia, urinary tract infections, bacteremia and liver abscesses, and mainly infects immunocompromised people. However, the emergence and spread of hypervirulent and multi-resistant strains of this bacterium have recently extended its potential targets to people with no health problems.
