Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it is safe and effective in treating adults with bacteremia (a bacterial infection in the blood) due to Staphylococcus aureus.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with a Staphylococcus aureus (SA) blood infection who are hospitalized can join. They must have their source of SA infection under control or a plan for it, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to use contraception if they can have children. Those with certain heart infections, brain abscesses, meningitis, allergies to phage products, or other bacterial growth besides SA cannot participate.
What is being tested?
This study is testing the safety and effectiveness of AP-SA02 given through an IV as an extra treatment alongside the best available antibiotic therapy versus just the antibiotics alone in treating adults with SA bacteremia. It's randomized and double-blind meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets what treatment until after results are collected.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of AP-SA02 aren't detailed here but could include reactions related to infusion such as discomfort at injection site or allergic responses since it's a new treatment being evaluated.
