I forwarded B news to a leading antibiotic CEO and he expressed incredible fear to me. He said, and I quote, "this is a very, very, very scary prospect for all of us in the antibiotic space. B may take over the entire market. This would be horrible, because despite saving potentially millions of lives, it deeply effects my company's relevancy." end of quote.

Here is what an expert on Brilacidin's propensity to cause renal toxicity had to say about it:

Click on the 2nd link from the top which took me straight to the Medscape article with no need to sign in. The whole article is a good re-read but the salient point is this:

"There was no evidence of liver or kidney toxicity, no deaths, and no prolongation in the QTc interval with brilacidin, Dr. Jorgensen said."

You can get more info on the QTc interval from this link:

I think that sums it up pretty well = Safe.
