Summary of Clinical Use ![]() |
Pravibismane is being developed by Microbion for the treatment of a range of resistant and difficult to treat bacterial infections. The drug has been granted Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) designation and Fast Track designation by the US FDA for adjunctive treatment of moderate and severe diabetic foot ulcer infection (DFI) and treatment of post-surgical orthopedic implant infections. In January 2024, pravibismane received Orphan Drug Designation from the FDA for the treatment of non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections, in addition to that already granted for pulmonary infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. Results from a Phase 1b clinical trial (NCT02723539) showed that pravibismane is a safe and potentially effective topical treatment for the managment of moderate or severe DFIs [2]. It progressed to Phase 2 evaluation as a treatment for DFIs (NCT05174806) and orthopaedic infections (NCT02436876), with these trials now complete. |
Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects ![]() |
Pravibismane acts rapidly to stop bacterial cell growth via a mechanism that disrupts cellular bioenergetics [1]. |
