Developing Non-Traditional Antibiotics (AAC ed.)

Developing non-traditional antibiotics promises novel strategies to combat multidrug-resistant organisms but would they work? Are they feasible to develop? Topics discussed: 
 • The notion of non-traditional antibiotics as potential therapeutics against MDR organisms 
 • Increasing our understanding on the clinical efficacy of non-traditional antibiotics 
 • Regulatory pathways for approval of such compounds
