Thilo Köhler (Geneva University Hospitals) and colleagues report successful treatment of a 41-year-old patient with a P. aeruginosa infection using aerosolized phage therapy. They followed evolution of phage and bacteria in respiratory samples during treatment, showing phage replication and a clonal but phenotypically diverse population of hypermutator strains.
