“Leading the innovation of phage therapies, BiomX’s programs target persistent, antibiotic-resistant infections in chronic diseases that can result in devastating impacts, including substantially increased morbidity and mortality, for patients,” said Jonathan Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of BiomX. “At Biomed Israel, the premier biopharma conference in the region, we have the opportunity to showcase the positive topline Phase 2 results for our BX211 program in DFO associated with Staphylococcus aureus. We are grateful for key opinion leader endorsements we’ve received and to the organizations that have provided vital support for this program, and we look forward to presenting our BX211 Phase 2 findings at an upcoming, peer-reviewed scientific forum.”

About BX211
BX211 is a phage treatment for the treatment of DFO associated with S. aureus. DFO is a bacterial infection of the bone that usually develops from an infected foot ulcer and is a
leading cause of amputation in patients with diabetes. In March 2025, BiomX announced positive topline results from the Phase 2 trial in which BX211 was demonstrated to be safe and well-tolerated
and patients receiving BX211 exhibited statistically significant1 and sustained reduction of ulcer size (PAR)(p = 0.046 at week 12; p=0.052 at week 13), with a separation from placebo
starting at week 7 and a difference greater than 40% by week 10. In addition, BX211 also produced statistically significant1 improvements in both ulcer depth at week 13 (in patients with
ulcer depth defined as bone at baseline, ulcer depth was classified according to deepest tissue involved as measured by swab) (p=0.048), and in reducing the expansion of ulcer area (p=0.017). Over
the 12-week treatment period, all patients (treatment and placebo) were treated in accordance with standard of care, including with systemic antibiotic therapy as appropriate. BiomX is currently
planning a Phase 2/3 trial, pending discussions and feedback from the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA").
