Technophage identified a promising compound, Eletriptan hydrobromide, that intends to use as a repurposed drug, for the treatment of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) in human subjects. Eletriptan hydrobromide is a well characterized molecule, that has been clinically available for over two decades for the treatment of migraines. It presents a good and manageable safety profile, including for the regimen selected for this trial, and it is generally well tolerated, with minimal side effects. This is an important consideration to have when using repurposed drugs for the treatment of other indications. Technophage believes that the preclinical data collected, in combination with the acceptable safety profile of Eletriptan hydrobromide, support its use as a repurposed drug for the treatment of SCI in humans.

Given the challenges of treating complex cases of VAP caused by P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae, TechnoPhage developed a bacteriophage cocktail (TP-122) against those pathogens, aiming to provide a hospital-based add-on therapy to the SoC including antibiotic therapy, administered by nebulization. TP-122 is a bacteriophage cocktail divided in two different components: TP-122A is comprised of three bacteriophages against infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and TP-122B includes three bacteriophages against K. pneumoniae . For this study, an effective sample of 15 subjects will be randomly allocated into two arms, in a 3:2 ratio, with 9 subjects receiving TP-122A, in addition to SoC, and 6 subjects receiving the SoC alone.
