REVERSE2 Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new topical treatment of wound infections. It's a cocktail of 5 bacteriophages applied TIW to help fight Staph, Pseudomonas, and Acinetobacter.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with diabetes and a specific type of long-lasting foot infection can join this trial. Their blood sugar levels should be reasonably controlled (HbA1c < 12.0%). The infection must meet certain criteria, including size and severity, and respond to the TP-102 bacteriophage cocktail. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those in other trials recently, or with conditions that may interfere with the study cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing TP-102, a mix of viruses targeting bacteria causing foot infections in diabetics. It's applied topically every other day against a placebo to see if it helps heal chronic ulcers better by killing off specific bacteria.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed here but could include reactions at the application site or allergic responses due to sensitivity to any component of TP-102.
