multifunctional bacterial consortia that are designed to functionally interact with host cells and tissues to treat disease. seres' ser-109 program achieved the first-ever positive pivotal clinical results for a targeted microbiome drug candidate and has obtained breakthrough therapy and orphan drug designations from the fda. the ser-109 program is being advanced to prevent further recurrences of c. difficile infection and has potential to become a first-in-class oral fda-approved microbiome therapeutic. seres is evaluating ser-155 in a phase 1b study in patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to reduce incidences of gastrointestinal infections, bloodstream infections and graft-versus-host disease as well as additional preclinical stage programs targeting infection protection in medically compromised patients. the company is also conducting research to inform further development of microbiome therapeutics for ulcerative colitis. product description: ser-109 ser-109 is an oral microbiome therapeutic candidate consisting of a consortium of highly purified firmicutes spores, which normally live in a healthy microbiome. it was developed utilizing the company's microbiome therapeutics platform to understand the ecologies of disease associated with cdi. the ser-109 manufacturing purification process is designed to remove unwanted microbes, thereby reducing the risk of pathogen transmission beyond donor screening alone. the fda has granted ser-109 breakthrough therapy designation and orphan drug designation for the prevention of rcdi. the u.s. food and drug administration (fda) has accepted for review a biologics license application (bla) for investigational oral microbiome therapeutic ser-109 for the prevention of
