WORLD HEALTH ORGINIZATION
"Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threat to global health today. It can affect anyone, of any age, in any country."
How are we protecting our world?
Technology
Our lead program, CZ-02 is a new class of broad spectrum antibiotics, focused on ESKAPE pathogens, with a focus on drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Inspired by a natural product, this class targets an unexploited binding site of the bacterial ribosome. learn more
Ribosomal Antibiotics
In this program, our focus is on developing novel antibiotics for ESKAPE pathogens or “superbugs”. We has designed two novel classes of antibiotics that show both selectivity and potent activity against many of the ESKAPE pathogens. learn more
Antibiofilm Antibiotics
Biofilms can also cause severe infections in our bodies. Tuberculosis, diabetic ulcers, Lyme disease, medical device-related infections, osteomyelitis, chronic skin wounds and infections that accompany cystic fibrosis are all examples of biofilm-related infections. learn more
