Phage Therapy for Antibiotic-Resistant Bacterial Infections.
Annual Review of Medicine, 2021 Antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens presents a substantial threat to the control of infectious diseases. Development of new classes of antibiotics has slowed in recent years due to pressures of cost and market profitability, and there is a ...

Microorganisms, 2022 Treatment of infections caused by bacteria has become more complex due to the increasing number of bacterial strains that are resistant to conventional antimicrobial therapy. A highly promising alternative appears to be bacteriophage (phage) therapy, in which natural predators of bacteria, bacteriophages, play a role.

Phage Therapy—Challenges, Opportunities and Future Prospects
Pharmaceuticals, 2023 The increasing drug resistance of bacteria to commonly used antibiotics creates the need to search for and develop alternative forms of treatment. Phage therapy fits this trend perfectly.

Formulations for Bacteriophage Therapy and the Potential Uses of Immobilization
Pharmaceuticals, 2021 The emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens is becoming increasingly problematic in the treatment of bacterial diseases. This has led to bacteriophages receiving increased attention as an alternative form of treatment.

Regulations of phage therapy across the world
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Phage therapy, a century-long treatment targeting bacterial infection, was widely abandoned after the clinical availability of antibiotics in the mid-20th century. However, the crisis of antimicrobial resistance today led to its revival in many countries.

Adapting a Phage to Combat Phage Resistance [PDF]
Antibiotics, 2020 Phage therapy is becoming a widely recognized alternative for fighting pathogenic bacteria due to increasing antibiotic resistance problems. However, one of the common concerns related to the use of phages is the evolution of bacterial resistance against the phages, putatively disabling the treatment.
