BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation affirmed its support for the PASTEUR Act, a bipartisan proposal that, if passed, will support the development of new antibiotics and promote appropriate use of existing ones. The organization issued the following statement:
"New solutions are needed now to bring novel antibiotics into the hands of patients. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation applauds Senators Bennet and Young in reintroducing the Pioneering Antimicrobial Subscriptions to End Upsurging Resistance (PASTEUR) Act. If passed, the PASTEUR Act has the potential to spur vital investment into new antibiotics by addressing the economic disincentives that have long been associated with antibiotic development.
"Routine use of antibiotics in cystic fibrosis care is medically necessary but unfortunately, too many people with CF find themselves battling difficult-to treat infections where existing antibiotics are not effective. However, antibiotic resistance is not solely a CF problem—it's a human problem that we can no longer ignore.

"People with CF need more antibiotic options as do all Americans. The Foundation is making significant investments into the research and development of new approaches to address infections, but more is needed. Congress must take swift action to pass the PASTEUR Act, invigorating a new era of antibiotic research and development that could bring novel treatments into the hands of patients who need them the most."
