(Cefepime + taniborbactam hydrochloride) is under clinical development by VenatoRx Pharmaceuticals and currently in Phase III for Pyelonephritis. According to GlobalData, Phase III drugs for Pyelonephritis have an 89% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Pre-Registration. GlobalData’s report assesses how (Cefepime + taniborbactam hydrochloride)’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

(Cefepime + taniborbactam hydrochloride) overview

Fixed dose combination of cefepime and taniborbactam hydrochloride (VNRX-5133) is under development for the treatment of multi-drug resistant (MDR) gram-negative infections such as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections, complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) including acute pyelonephritis, pyuria, hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia. It is administered intravenously. The therapeutic candidate acts by targeting beta lactamase and penicillin binding protein 2.

It was also under development for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI).

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in its clinical pathway (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a proprietary algorithm built from the drugs’ sales forecast, regulatory milestones, cost forecasts, WACC rate and other proprietary data sources found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
