Bacteriophage Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury Patients With Bacteriuria

A Phase 1B Study to Assess Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Bacteriophage Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury Patients With Bacteriuria


Sponsor

Barbara Trautner

Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Feb 3, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a Phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of investigational phage therapy (IP) in adults with SCI and bladder colonization (ASB). It is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with SCI with neurogenic bladders and bacteriuria who use indwelling catheters, or who require intermittent catheterization for bladder drainage.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Interventions

DRUGPhage Therapy

A 20 mL sterile solution containing one to three individual phage drug substances (TPC) with total strength (potency) 3 x 10\^8 plaque-forming units (PFU), will be administered intravesicularly twice a day (one instillation in the morning and one in the evening \[at least six hours apart\], respectively) for 7 days. The selection of individual phages to include in the TPC are personalized/customized for each participant per phage susceptibility testing to the participant's urinary E. coli (testing is conducted by TAILФR Service Center). Each dose of TPC will be followed with a 10 mL flush of sterile 0.9% saline solution.

OTHERPlacebo

Sterile 0.9% saline solution also 20 mL, followed with a 10 mL flush of the same solution.
