The Cidin Class: New Kid On The Block

Between 1928 and 1987 26 classes of antibiotics were discovered. The time between discovery and the identification of antibiotic resistance ranges from a low of 3 years to a high of 33 years. For example, Penicillin was discovered in 1928 and antibiotic resistance was identified in 1941, 13 years later.

Prior to the Cidin Class, of which Brilacidin is the first compound, the Lippeptides Class, to which Daptomycin belong,was the last class of antibiotics discovered in 1987 and resistance was identified in 2005.

Arguably, the biggest threat to public health is antibiotic-resistant infections. I believe Brilacidin will address this problem on two fronts: 1. A MOA that kills bacteria in minutes, before they can evolve, and 2. An effective single-dose therapy.

The antibiotic resistance problem is worsened by patient noncompliance and an effective single-dose bacterial therapy will not only alleviate this problem, but also confer a huge marketing advantage to CTIX.

The 3-legged stool of Dapto equivalency, MOA and single dose therapy will make B a one-of -a-kind game changer that will have a gargantuan effect on the treatment of antibiotic resistant infections and CTIX's share price.

Since resistance was eventually identified for the other 26 classes of antibiotics, I suppose one will someday be identified for Brilacidin. By the time that happens we should all be gazillionaires.
