Dr. Rodger Novak, Nabriva’s COO, will present an oral summary of the Company’s posters on pleuromutilin BC-3781 at the Session on “Novel antimicrobial agents” on Sunday, September 12th at 1:45 pm. He will be presenting data demonstrating BC-3781’s anti-microbial spectrum and it’s efficacy in non-clinical studies of both skin (ABSSSI) and lung infections, including community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP), as well as data showing the pharmacokinetics of the molecule in clinical Phase I studies when administered intravenously.
Additionally, Nabriva’s CMO, Dr. William Prince will be presenting the latest research results on “Safety, Tolerance and Pharmacokinetics of Single and Repeat Doses of Oral BC-3781, a Novel Antimicrobial”. Study results showed that oral BC-3781 was well tolerated in patients and plasma concentration levels of BC-3781 indicated a therapeutic potential for the treatment of bacterial lung and skin infections. The presentation number is F1-1970 and it will be given on Wednesday, September 15th at 8:30- 8:45 am.
These studies will be presented at the 50th ICAAC in Boston, held on September 12- 15th 2010. The titles and contributors to each poster mentioned above are as follows:
