Tuesday, March 31st, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific, 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

 

Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/30/2015 -- Synthetic Biologics will be discussing Preventing C. diff Infections (CDI) with SYN-004 on C diff Spores and More, C diff Radio sponsored by C Diff Foundation.

The majority of C. difficile cases are caused by the unintended consequences of antibiotic therapy to the gut microbiome. Intravenous (IV) antibiotics excreted to the gut often wipe out the natural balance of microflora, which can lead to recurring diarrhea and perforation of the intestinal wall, with potentially fatal outcomes. Co-administered with IV antibiotics, Synthetic Biologics' product candidate, SYN-004, is designed to be a preventive therapy intended to protect the gut microbiome by degrading IV antibiotics, thereby preventing the onset of C. difficile infection. Synthetic Biologic, Inc.'s Lewis Barrett, BS, MBA, Senior Vice President, Commercial Strategy and Joseph A. Sliman, MD, MPH, Senior Vice President, Clinical & Regulatory Affairs will discuss the novel point-of-care preventive approach, the clinical development pathway and the potential of the Company's lead pathogen-specific product candidate, SYN-004.
