Opsonix is developing and commercializing a pathogen-extracting therapy that uses its proprietary pathogen-capture proteins to remove infectious microbes and the toxins they release from circulating blood, offering a new broad-spectrum approach to transform the treatment of blood-borne infectious diseases, including sepsis.Opsonix's pathogen-capture proteins are engineered versions of human opsonins—molecular components of the innate immune system that help to clear our bodies of pathogens and released toxins. Our most advanced pathogen-capture protein, FcMBL, binds all types of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses, as well as many toxins. The pathogen-extracting therapy incorporates FcMBL into an extracorporeal medical device to remove infectious agents from circulating blood in patients with systemic infections that are the cause of sepsis.
