This represents the third positive Phase 3 registration study of omadacycline (the other two were skin and pneumonia)." (7/17/2017)
• 3. Robert W. Baird analysts commented, "Though sarecycline is not a key driver, it provides a potential source of non-dilutive financing and further validates Paratek's ability to develop a once daily, well tolerated, tetracycline-derived antibiotic.
