Virus vs. superbug: experimental treatment targets deadly hospital pneumonia

NCT ID NCT07202234

Summary

This study is testing whether a cocktail of bacteriophages—viruses that target specific bacteria—can safely and effectively treat ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by drug-resistant bacteria. The trial will enroll 248 hospitalized adult patients who have developed this serious infection while on a breathing machine. Researchers will compare the phage therapy to standard care to see if it improves recovery, clears the infection faster, and reduces hospital stays.
