Study Summary

TRL1068 is expected to eliminate the pathogen-protecting biofilm in the prosthetic joint and surrounding tissue, thus making pathogens substantially more susceptible to established antibiotic treatment regimens. This Phase 2 study is designed to assess efficacy and safety of TRL1068 in combination with a DAIR (debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention) procedure for chronic prosthetic joint infections of the knee and hip, specifically, eliminating the need for the standard of care 2-stage exchange surgery, so that the original prosthesis can be retained.

Primary Outcome

Incidence of resolved PJI, i.e., completion of planned surgical interventions for PJI (DAIR or 2-stage exchange arthroplasty), and not receiving systemic antibiotics for PJI or antibiotic suppression therapy for PJI or any other planned interventions to treat PJI by end of study.
