BiomX Completes Patient Dosing in Phase 1b/2a Study for BX004 in Cystic Fibrosis
BiomX has announced the successful completion of patient dosing in the second part of its phase 1b/2a clinical trial assessing BX004, a novel treatment aimed at addressing chronic pulmonary infections resulting from Pseudomonas aeruginosa in individuals diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF).
BX004 has been specifically developed to address a pressing unmet medical need affecting numerous cystic fibrosis (CF) patients who are in dire need of innovative therapies to combat persistent and life-threatening lung infections.
This novel treatment has been created using BiomX's proprietary BOLT platform, with the primary goal of addressing chronic pulmonary infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), a leading contributor to the morbidity and mortality observed in CF patients.
The phase 1b/2a trial for BX004 consists of two distinct parts. Part 1 of the study has reported positive outcomes, focusing on the assessment of safety, pharmacokinetics, as well as microbiologic and clinical activity. This part involved nine CF patients and followed a single ascending dose and multiple dose design.
Part 2 of the trial is set to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BX004 in a larger cohort, involving at least 24 CF patients who will be randomly assigned to either a treatment or placebo group in a 2:1 ratio.
In August 2023, the FDA granted BX004 fast track designation for its potential in treating chronic respiratory infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PsA) bacterial strains in CF patients.
