Expert Statements

Kelvin Cooper, Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President of Research and Development at Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics

“The data being presented at IDWeek reinforce the potential of Nu-3 to play an important role in addressing the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance”

Kelvin Cooper, Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President of Research and Development at Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics

“Nu-3's broad-spectrum and rapid bactericidal activity, combined with its low potential for resistance development, underscore its potential as a differentiated antimicrobial therapy for iDFUs. With our Phase 2a trial now underway, we look forward to building on these encouraging findings as we advance Nu-3 toward our goal of providing a potential new, topically delivered treatment option for patients with difficult-to-treat infections.”
