The US market for AMR gram-negative infections was estimated to be $12.7 billion in 2017. At that time, there were only 8 marketed antibiotics to treat these types of infections, with only 6 others known to be in development.

Our world is quickly running out of treatment options.

There is a critical need for new antibiotics; world organizations have come together to encourage and facilitate the discovery and development of new treatments.

“We are fast running out of treatment options. If we leave it to market forces alone, the new antibiotics we most urgently need are not going to be developed in time.”

- Dr. Marie-Paule Kieny, W.H.O. Assistant Director General
