“We are off to a strong start in 2021 and are well-positioned to continue making solid progress throughout our entire pipeline of novel phage therapies with the potential to make a significant impact in the microbiome space. Within the next 14 months, we will have clinical readouts in four distinct indications and remain committed to advancing our phage therapies that have the potential to restore health to the microbiome and in turn, provide safe and effective treatments to patients in need,” said Jonathon Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of BiomX. “In March, we initiated a Phase 2 cosmetic clinical study of BX001 for acne-prone skin and today we are announcing completion of enrollment for 140 patients with results at the 8- and 12-week treatment periods expected in the third and fourth quarters of 2021, respectively. Importantly, in the first quarter we also announced positive safety and tolerability results from the Phase 1a study of BX002 for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, which met its objective of delivering high concentrations of viable phage to the gastrointestinal tract. With these promising results in hand, we are advancing to a Phase 1b/2a study of BX003 for Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis to evaluate the reduction of target bacteria, Klebsiella pneumoniae, with data expected in the second quarter of 2022.”

Mr. Solomon added, “Based on ongoing conversations and recommendations from the cystic fibrosis Therapeutic Development Network, we are modifying our Phase 2 trial design in cystic fibrosis to a Phase 1b/2a trial design comprised of two parts. Results from Part 1 and Part 2 are expected in the first and second quarters of 2022, respectively. We are pleased that Dr. David Nichols, M.D., an experienced cystic fibrosis clinical investigator and clinician, will be assisting us with this trial as the academic principal investigator through the Therapeutic Development Network.”
