Botanix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:BOT) is pleased to announce that data for our clinical stage antimicrobial asset, BTX 1801, will be presented at the European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID 2022) on 23–26 April 2022.

Results from our clinical program will form the basis of two abstract presentations.

The first abstract, titled ‘​​The Antimicrobial profile of BTX-1801: a new synthetic cannabidiol active against Gram-positive bacteria associated with serious infections’ will be presented by Professor Geoffrey Coombs from Murdoch University.

The second abstract, ‘The Bactericidal activity of BTX 1801: a synthetic cannabidiol with potent activity versus Staphylococcus aureus’ will be presented by Angela Kavanagh from the Centre for Superbug Solutions at The University of Queensland.

Botanix President and Executive Chairman, Vince Ippolito, said:

“The data to be presented at the upcoming ECCMID 2022 conference suggests the significant potential of BTX 1801 to prevent S. aureus bloodstream infections associated with considerable morbidity, mortality, and cost in haemodialysis patients who use Central Venous Catheters (CVC).”
