Welcome Letter from our 2017 Chairs Dear Colleagues,It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to participate in the 19th Annual Superbugs & Superdrugs Conference taking place on20th - 21st March 2017, Central London, UK.In 2016 antimicrobial resistance achieved remarkable global attention. For a decade the community talked about the need for industry, academia and government to act on an international level to address the scientifi c challenges of antibiotic discovery, diagnosis, addressing the economics of antibiotics and to invest in unprecedented ways. In 2016 we may have witnessed change.We are delighted to chair this annual industry meeting in 2017 again, which will gather a high level of international experts and project decision makers to review the successes of 2016 and look into the future of AMR. Please take time to peruse the conference agenda which has been drafted with great care to give you the very best opportunity to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts in infectious diseases, health economics and advanced technologies and solutions.Networking and learning with our peers is the secret to improving the drug development pipeline.
Yours Sincerely,
Richard Bax, Senior Partner, TranScrip

Superbugs & Superdrugs Day Two | Tuesday 21st March 2017
8.30 Registration & Coffee
9.00 Chairman’s Opening Remarks Lloyd Czaplewski, Director, Chemical Biology Ventures
OPENING ADDRESS9.10 How the pharmaceutical industry is helping address AMR? • The role of the pharmaceutical industry in combating
AMR goes beyond investing in R&D for new antibiotics • Companies are partnering with healthcare systems globally
to help ensure antibiotics are manufactured cleanly, available to patients where needed and used appropriately
• We seek further progress on implementation of new economic models to deliver sustainable solutions for all
James Anderson, Head of Corporate Government Affairs, GlaxoSmithKline
9.50 Exploiting DNA topoisomerases as targets for antibacterial chemotherapy
• AMR is a serious and growing problem • DNA topoisomerases (e.g. DNA gyrases) are successful and
well-validated targets for antibiotics • Fluoroquinolones are highly-successful antibacterial agents,
but resistance is a serious problem • Approaches to discover new gyrase inhibitors • Topoisomerases present new opportunities for antibiotic targeting Anthony Maxwell, Professor, Head of Department Biological
Chemistry, John Innes Centre
10.30 Morning Coffee
10.50 Finding new small molecule antibiotics • Fast and effi cient ways to fi nd new antibiotic chemotypes • Ways to focus rational chemical optimisation • Selection of the best clinical candidates • Management of clinical resistance David Williams, Chief Executive Offi cer, Discuva
11.30 Fighting back against MBL mediated CREs: development of metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitors for use in combination with carbapenems
• MBL-mediated CRE are already endemic in many countries and rapidly spreading world-wide
• Antabio have identifi ed a potent and selective lead series with excellent drug-like properties
• Lead compounds show broad spectrum potentiation of meropenem against clinical CRE isolates and demonstrate effi cacy in animal models of infection
Martin Everett, Chief Scientifi c Offi cer, ANTABIO SAS
12.10 Networking Lunch
13.30 Microbome-targeted products: Spare vs repair
• Antibiotic-induced dysbiosis and its consequences

multi-specifi city
• Pre-emptive approach for high-risk patients is highly
attractive
• mAb therapy to increase antibiotic effectiveness with
directly anti-bacterial and/or anti-virulence mechanisms
Eszter Nagy, Co-Founder and CSO, Arsanis, Inc;
Managing Director, Arsanis Biosciences GmbH
15.10 Discovery of a novel class of antibiotics

About the Workshop Leaders:William Weiss is currently the Director of Preclinical Services at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth. He uses his 33 years of experience and expertise in infectious disease research to direct the evaluations of antibacterial agents, including established models of both acute and chronic bacterial infections in several different animal species as well as pharmacokinetic studies and HPLC or LCMS analysis in collaboration with large pharmaceutical companies, the biotech industry as well as academia.
Mark Pulse has primarily been focused on bacterial pathogenesis and pre-clinical drug evaluation within in vivo models. For the last 10years he has been directly involved in the development of several in vivo models that have included GI- and respiratoryassociated infectious diseases, device-associated (biofi lm) infections, and pharmacokinetic studies within multiple animal species. He also has experience with survival surgery in multiple animal species, including USDA species.
About the Pre-Clinical Services:The Pre-Clinical Services group at the University of North Texas Health Science Center conducts studies utilizing establishedmodels of both acute and chronic bacterial infections in several different animal species. In addition, pharmacokinetic studies with accompanied bioanalytical LCMS / HPLC analysis can be performed in-house for submitted compounds. Infection models or protocols other than those described herein can also be established or adapted as required to meet the more specifi c needs of interested Sponsors.
