How to chose and to plan a project of Phage therapy

 By these information it is possible in short time  to establish   on paper if there are some chanches of success.

It is indispensable to know of:

1-Bacterial diseases
a-social impact of the disease
b-economic impact of the disease
c-pathogenesis of the disease
 
2-Aetiological bacterial agent
a- presence of lytic phages  for this bacterial agent
b- the best route for Phage administration for this disease

 
From this link (http://www.rightdiagnosis.com) there is a list of types of bacterial diseases (but it is not exhaustive).

3-Check
1-first public written communication year ( journal,internet et cetera)
2-years passed from the first communication
3-how many dedicated clinical studies ?

At this moment there is a strong incoherence among point 3(1) and points 3(2),3(3).

The Guardian: outbreak of drug-resistant infection could kill 80,000 in UK, report warns

“Much of modern medicine (for example, organ transplantation, bowel surgery and some cancer treatments) may become unsafe due to the risk of infection."

“In addition, influenza pandemics would become more serious without effective treatments.”

“If we don’t take action, in 20 years’ time we could be back in the 19th century where infections kill us as a result of routine operations.”

A way to treat bacterial infections with artificial viruses

" Dr Farah and his colleagues, by contrast, are able to synthesise viruses from scratch, using off-the-shelf chemicals. They can thus design them precisely, down to the last atom".
