New therapeutic approaches are urgently needed to control bacterial infections and safeguard the health of populations. The reviving of ND-AB and research on improving the efficiency of antibiotics by using them in combination with another antibiotics or a nonantibiotic can be a fast solution to overcome antimicrobial resistance.
The primary aim of this second joint call of JPIAMR is to combine the resources, infrastructures, and research strengths of multiple countries in order to overcome antibiotic resistance. The goal is to foster multinational translational research collaborations that can accomplish more than individual countries working independently, and improve the control of bacterial infections.
Call Topics
Sustain defense against AMR in human and animal health to reduce occurrence of resistance or overcome established resistance by:
- reviving Neglected and Disused AntiBiotics (ND-AB)
- designing combinations of ND-AB and antibiotic
- designing combinations of ND-AB and non-antibiotic
The activity of ND-AB and the synergy of the combinations of ND-AB with other antibiotics and non-antibiotic should be validated by testing for activity/synergy in vitro and in validated animal models with pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modelling.
