Switching Off Bacterial Resistance

Bioversys AG is a privately held Swiss biopharmaceutical company located in Basel that focuses on research and development of new drugs and compounds, which switch-off drug resistance within bacterial pathogens and restore the efficacy of approved antibiotics. Spun out of the ETH-Zurich in 2008, we have profound technological expertise that is based on solid IP.


Market

The market for antibiotics represents, with close to 27 billion USD, one of the largest categories of biopharmaceutical therapeutics. While the identification of de novo antibiotic compounds dramatically slowed down since 1960 and the focus shifted to modifications of existing antibiotic-families, we believe that the successful therapeutic treatment of bacterial infections, especially infections caused by multi-resistant strains, in the close future will strongly benefit from dual-intervention strategies, like followed by BioVersys.
