LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Armata Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: ARMP) ("Armata" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of high-purity, pathogen-specific bacteriophage therapeutics for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant and difficult-to-treat bacterial infections, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and provided a corporate update.
Third Quarter 2025 and Recent Developments:
"Compelling efficacy data from the Phase 1b/2a randomized controlled study of intravenously administered AP-SA02, including the favorable safety and tolerability profile, underscore the precision infection control enabled by Armata's well-characterized, high-purity phage cocktails, and provide strong rationale for advancement of AP-SA02 into late-stage clinical development," stated Dr. Deborah Birx, Chief Executive Officer of Armata. "Subject to review and feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, we are committed to developing a superiority pivotal trial with the goal of introducing AP-SA02 as a new standard of care for complicated Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia, a common, extremely severe, and often deadly infection."
"With the full commissioning of our state-of-the-art cGMP manufacturing facility in Los Angeles, California, we are now operationally ready to scale production for late-stage clinical development. We reiterate our commitment to U.S.-based manufacturing in support of the federal government's efforts to secure the pharmaceutical supply chain through onshore manufacturing of essential medicines. We have made tremendous progress this year advancing phage-based therapeutics as potential treatments for both acute and chronic bacterial infections, and with line-of-site to the potential initiation of a Phase 3 study in 2026, we believe we are well positioned to bring new hope to patients with significant unmet medical need, while creating long-term value for our shareholders," Dr. Birx concluded.
