Paratek Pharmaceuticals announced that new data from its omadacycline clinical and microbiology programs will be presented at IDWeek 2017 taking place in San Diego from October 4 – 8. In addition to the poster presentations, Paratek’s Vice President of Clinical Development and Medical Affairs, Paul McGovern, M.D., will provide an overview of omadacycline during the New Antibiotics: What’s in the Pipeline symposium. Paratek is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies based upon tetracycline chemistry.
“Our clinical program continues to demonstrate a compelling profile for once-daily oral and IV omadacycline and underscores our commitment to bringing this new antibiotic treatment option to physicians and patients given the tremendous need, particularly for new safe and effective oral options,” said Evan Loh, M.D., President, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Medical Officer, Paratek. “As we move closer to initiating our rolling submission in December of this year, we remain committed to sharing data about the utility of omadacycline with prescribers who are in need of new, effective oral agents to combat serious community-acquired infections.”

About Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies based upon its expertise in novel tetracycline chemistry. The Company’s lead product candidate, omadacycline, is a new, once-daily oral and intravenous broad-spectrum antibiotic being developed for the treatment of serious community-acquired bacterial infections, including community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP), acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI), and urinary tract infections. Omadacycline has been granted Qualified Infectious Disease Product designation and Fast Track status by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the target indications of ABSSSI, CABP, uUTI and cUTI. Paratek has completed Phase 3 development activities for omadacycline in CABP and ABSSSI and is preparing to submit marketing applications in the United States and European Union. Paratek has licensed rights for omadacycline to Zai Lab for the greater China region, and retains all remaining global rights.
Under a research agreement with the U.S. Department of Defense, omadacycline also is being studied against pathogenic agents causing infectious diseases of public health and biodefense importance, including plague and anthrax.
Paratek’s second Phase 3 product candidate, sarecycline, is being developed by Allergan in the U.S. as a new once-daily oral therapy for the treatment of acne. Allergan has completed Phase 3 development activities for sarecycline and is preparing a new drug application for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Paratek retains all ex-U.S. rights to sarecycline.
Recognizing the serious threat of bacterial infections, Paratek is dedicated to providing solutions that enable positive outcomes and lead to better patient stories.
