In September 2023, contezolid acefosamil was granted Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) and Fast Track Designation by the US FDA for the treatment of moderate to severe diabetic foot infections (DFI). It was previously granted QIDP and Fast Track Designation (in 2018) for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). Contezolid acefosamil is formulated for intravenous administration and has completed Phase 2 clinical evaluation for the treatment of ABSSSI (NCT03747497) and is currently being studied in a Phase 3 trial for the treatment of patients with DFI (NCT05369052). |
