We are excited by the addition of this new program to our growing pipeline and to continue the development of this targeted antibiotics class, which has the potential to address an unmet medical need in the treatment of severe bacterial infections in the hospital.”

Key Points: 
  • We are excited by the addition of this new program to our growing pipeline and to continue the development of this targeted antibiotics class, which has the potential to address an unmet medical need in the treatment of severe bacterial infections in the hospital.”
    The antibiotics were developed within Spexis’ Outer Membrane Protein Targeting Antibiotics (OMPTA) program and selectively disrupt the lipopolysaccharide transport bridge, an essential structure in Gram-negative bacteria.
  • This results in a loss of the integrity of the outer cell membrane, intracellular accumulation of lipopolysaccharides and killing of the bacteria.
  • The program was funded in part by CARB-X (Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator).2 This underscores the potential of this novel class of antibiotics.
  • In addition, Basilea assumes the rights and obligations of Spexis, including potential low single-digit percentage royalties on sales, under licensing agreements.
