October 14, 2025 07:00 ET  | Source: Seres Therapeutics, Inc. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Seres Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: MCRB), (Seres or the Company), a leading live biotherapeutics company, today announced that new post hoc data from its SER-155 Phase 1b trial will be featured in an oral presentation at IDWeek 2025, taking place October 19–22 in Atlanta, Georgia. Presentation DetailsAbstract ID: 2106936Title: Clinical and Microbiology Outcomes of Bloodstream Infections (BSI) in Adults Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (allo-HCT) in a Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Cohort 2 of a Phase 1b Study of SER-155, an Investigation Live BiotherapeuticPresenter: Tessa Andermann, MD, MPH; Associate Professor of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of MedicineSession: Blood and Guts – Microbiome DiscoveriesDate and Time: October 20, 10:30-10:42am EDTLocation: B207-B208, Georgia World Congress Center The presentation will include new data describing differences between the SER-155 and placebo groups in the bacterial and fungal organisms causing BSIs, including BSI event clinical outcomes, antibacterial prophylaxis use, and patterns of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among the bacterial BSI organisms. In a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 1b study evaluating SER-155 in patients receiving allo-HSCT, SER-155 reduced BSIs by 77% and lowered systemic treatment antibiotic use and febrile neutropenia. Exploratory biomarker data presented at recent medical meetings have supported the intended mechanisms of SER-155 and demonstrated the broader potential of live biotherapeutics in inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. The Company recently received constructive FDA feedback on the design of a well-powered, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study of SER-155 in patients receiving allo-HSCT and is finalizing the clinical protocol. Seres is also engaged in discussions with multiple parties to secure capital and additional resources to advance SER-155 and its broader live biotherapeutics portfolio. IDWeek is an annual meeting organized by a collaboration of professional organizations, including the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA), the HIV Medicine Association (HIVMA), the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society (PIDS), and the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists (SIDP). About Seres TherapeuticsSeres Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: MCRB) is a clinical-stage company focused on improving patient outcomes in medically vulnerable populations through novel live biotherapeutics. Seres led the successful development and approval of VOWST™, the first FDA-approved orally administered microbiome therapeutic, which was sold to Nestlé Health Science in September 2024. The Company is developing SER-155, which has received Breakthrough Therapy designation for the reduction of bloodstream infections in adults undergoing allo-HSCT and Fast Track designation for reducing the risk of infection and graft-versus-host disease in adults undergoing allo-HSCT, and which has demonstrated a significant reduction in bloodstream infections and related complications (as compared to placebo) in a Phase 1b clinical study in patients undergoing allo-HSCT. SER-155 and the Company's other pipeline programs are designed to target multiple disease-relevant pathways and are manufactured from standard clonal cell banks via cultivation, rather than from the donor-sourced production process used for VOWST. In addition to allo-HSCT, the Company intends to evaluate SER-155 and other cultivated live biotherapeutic candidates in other medically vulnerable patient populations including autologous-HSCT patients, cancer patients with neutropenia, CAR-T recipients, individuals with chronic liver disease, solid organ transplant recipients, as well as patients in the intensive care unit and long-term acute care facilities.
