dc.description.abstract

Exebacase, an anti-staphylococcal lysin produced from a bacteriophage-encoded gene, is a promising adjunctive therapy for severe methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections. We describe the first infant to receive exebacase, dosing, and pharmacokinetics (PK). Exebacase may be safe and efficacious in children; however, further clinical trials are needed to optimize dosing.
