Learning from patients treated with phage therapy for severe infections

This is an observational study that gathers medical information from patients treated with bacteriophage therapy at Hospices Civils de Lyon in France. Bacteriophages are viruses that can attack and kill harmful bacteria, and this study aims to understand how well this treatment works for people with severe infections and what happens to them over time.

Some severe bacterial infections are becoming resistant to standard antibiotics, making them harder to treat. This medication offers a promising alternative approach, and doctors need to collect real-world experience to better understand how it works, who benefits most, and what outcomes patients can expect.
