Lead Product in Development:
PLG0206 is an investigational broad-spectrum, anti-bacterial and anti-biofilm peptide therapeutic currently in clinical development for the treatment of PJI. PLG0206 was designed with a unique mechanism of action that targets and disrupts bacterial membranes, allowing it to directly address the persistent bacterial pathogens within the biofilm that evade standard-of-care antibiotics. In both in vitro and in vivo non-clinical studies, PLG0206 has demonstrated best-in-class, rapidly bactericidal, broad-spectrum activity against a variety of pathogens including those identified by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as critical, urgent, or high-priority targets, regardless of resistance phenotype. PLG0206 has been granted Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of PJI, has been designated as a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP), and has been granted Fast Track Designation by the US FDA.
