Precisio Biotix Therapeutics, Inc. (Precisio) Announces Dosing of a First Patient with ClyO (Staph Lysin) to Treat a Multi Drug-Resistant Prosthetic Joint Infection
Precisio announced a first-in-man dosing of its staph lysin called ClyO (LYSG101) to a patient with a prosthetic joint infection that had not responded to other treatments. The FDA approved this treatment under a compassionate care IND filed by Mayo Clinic. The patient appears to have tolerated the treatment without any adverse events. It is too early to assess full efficacy, but this is certainly a significant step toward providing additional options to patients, particularly when traditional treatments have failed.
