Lantibiotics are a novel class of antibiotics with the potential to treat serious, life-threatening infections.

Key Points: 
  • Lantibiotics are a novel class of antibiotics with the potential to treat serious, life-threatening infections.
  • Oragenics’ lantibiotics platform is focused on the development of new antibiotics effective against certain pathogens including vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
  • Oragenics is focused on addressing this unmet medical need through its novel lantibiotics platform, and the results of its work with Linnaeus Bioscience advance Oragenics’ long-term mission to become a provider of effective treatments for infectious diseases.
  • Oragenics remains committed to fighting infectious diseases through the development of its lantibiotics pipeline against MRSA and VRE pathogens.

These data were recently presented at the ASM Microbe Conference held in Washington, D.C. from June 9-13, 2022.

Key Points: 
  • These data were recently presented at the ASM Microbe Conference held in Washington, D.C. from June 9-13, 2022.
  • These results demonstrate that lysins offer a potentially effective strategy for treating implant-associated MRSA osteomyelitis infections.
  • These in vitro studies demonstrate the low propensity for the development of resistance to exebacase in both MRSA and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) strains.
  • 28-day serial passage resistance assays demonstrated that the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of exebacase was not increased against MRSA and MSSA.

These results are being used to design appropriate clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy of TD-213 as a treatment for mild-to-moderate COVID-19.

Key Points: 
  • These results are being used to design appropriate clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy of TD-213 as a treatment for mild-to-moderate COVID-19.
  • "These data demonstrate a very potent antiviral effect of TD-213 against SARS-CoV-2," said Ralph Tripp, PhD.
  • Probenecid is a favorable antiviral drug candidate as it is commercially available and has high plasma concentrations with a benign clinical safety profile.
  • TrippBio is founded on the scientific research of Ralph Tripp, Ph.D., Georgia Research Alliance Chair and professor at the University of Georgia.
