Resistance to available antibiotics is increasing. Despite the critical need for novel antibacterial therapies, their development is lagging. At the 2016 American Thoracic Society (ATS) International Conference, Deborah Collyar, a project team member for CTTI’s Unmet Need in Antibiotic Development Project, will present results from interviews and focus groups on patient and provider attitudes toward using streamlined approaches for antibacterial drug development. These findings will be used to develop recommendations to improve the uptake and appropriate use of antibacterial therapies that are developed through streamlined approaches to address the critical unmet need for novel antibacterial therapies.
