R327 - Bacterial Infections

There is a historic lack of innovation in the antibiotic drug development field to address this growing need for effective antibiotics. R327 is one of the first new classes of anti-infectives in over 40 years with a universal mechanism of action that allows its compounds to continuously kill bacteria and multidrug-resistant superbugs. All RECCE® compounds are 100% water soluble at all pH levels. 

ESKAPE Pathogens

Dubbed ESKAPE for their propensity for ‘escaping’ the biocidal action of antibiotics, the acronym stands for six different commonly found multidrug-resistant pathogens: Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and Enterobacter species.

An independent study was conducted by a contract research organisation to assess the in vitro efficacy of R327 against all ESKAPE pathogen bacterial strains. The results demonstrated R327 to be 99.9% effective against the full suite of ESKAPE pathogens, within minutes of exposure.
