Investigating Disease Treatments with the Power of the Human Gut Microbiome - MRT Drug Platform - Video
(For US Audiences)
This 4:10 video explains the importance of the human gut microbiota and how its trillions of microorganisms may influence our daily health and fight diseases.
Disturbances in the gut microbiota, known as dysbiosis, has been linked to affecting 4 million people and costing over 12 billion dollars in the United States alone. We seek to understand the connection between the human microbiome and disease.
Our investigational MRT Drug Platform, which sources live microbiota intended to replace or replenish disrupted microbial communities, is currently being studied to reduce and prevent recurrent Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficle infection. Also known as C diff, this healthcare associated-infection (HAI) is directly responsible for nearly 30,000 annual deaths in the United States. Even when initially successfully treated, C diff re-occurs in roughly 1 in 5 patients often resulting in a declining quality of life.
Watch the video for a more complete story on our clinical and scientific journey in studying our investigational MRT™ drug platform.
