The role of regulated clinical trials in the development of bacteriophage therapeutics. [PDF]
Antibiotic resistance is now recognized as a major, global threat to human health and the need for the development of novel antibacterial therapies has become urgent. Lytic bacteriophages (phages) targeting individual bacterial pathogens have therapeutic
