New 'Trojan horse' antibiotic promising Scientists say they have engineered a new antibiotic that appears promising in early clinical trials.
The drug, made by Shionogi Inc, acts like the Trojan horse in Greek legend to trick bacteria into allowing it to enter.
Trials on 448 people with a kidney or urinary tract infection suggested the drug was as effective as current treatments.
Experts said the findings were an encouraging development. BBC News
