Abstract
Traditional antibiotics have been effective in many cases. However, the rise in multidrug-resistant bacteria has diminished their therapeutic efficacy, signaling the dawn of an era beyond antibiotics. The challenge of multidrug resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae is particularly critical, with increasing global mortality and resistance rates. Therefore, the development of alternative therapies to antibiotics is urgently needed. Phages, which are natural predators of bacteria, have inherent advantages. However, comprehensive information on K. pneumoniae phages is lacking in current literature. This review aims to analyze and summarize relevant studies, focusing on the present state of phage therapy for K. pneumoniae infections. This includes an examination of treatment methodologies, associated challenges, strategies, new phage technologies, clinical trial safety and efficacy, regulatory issues, and future directions for phage therapy development. Enhancing phage technology is crucial for addressing the evolving threat of multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae.
