This resurgence of phage therapy is driven by the urgent need for innovative countermeasures to AMR, which will cause an estimated 10 million deaths annually by 2050. However, the emergence of phage-resistant variants presents challenges similar to AMR, thus necessitating a deeper understanding of phage resistance mechanisms and control strategies. The highest priority must be to prevent the emergence of phage resistance. Although phage cocktails targeting multiple receptors have demonstrated a certain level of phage resistance suppression, they cannot completely suppress resistance in clinical settings. This highlights the need for strategies beyond simple resistance suppression. Notably, recent studies examining fitness trade-offs associated with phage resistance have opened new avenues in phage therapy that offer the potential of restoring antibiotic susceptibility and attenuating pathogen virulence despite phage resistance. Thus, controlling phage resistance may rely on both its suppression and strategic redirection. This review summarizes key concepts in the control of phage resistance and explores evolutionary engineering as a means of optimizing phage therapy, with a particular focus on Pseudomonas infections. Harnessing evolutionary dynamics by intentionally breaking the spontaneous evolutionary trajectories of target bacterial pathogens could potentially reshape bacterial adaptation by acquisition of phage resistance, unlocking potential in the application of phage therapy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/v17081080","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,4]],"date-time":"2025-08-04T15:30:06Z","timestamp":1754321406000},"page":"1080","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Biocontrol of Phage Resistance in Pseudomonas Infections: Insights into Directed Breaking of Spontaneous Evolutionary Selection in Phage Therapy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0476-752X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jumpei","family":"Fujiki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daigo","family":"Yokoyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haruka","family":"Yamamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nana","family":"Kimura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manaho","family":"Shimizu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hinatsu","family":"Kobayashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Keisuke","family":"Nakamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0838-1990","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hidetomo","family":"Iwano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Rakuno Gakuen University, Ebetsu 069-8501, Japan"},{"name":"Phage Therapy Institute, Comprehensive Research Organization, Waseda University, Tokyo 162-8480, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e00052-20","DOI":"10.1128\/JB.00052-20","article-title":"Are there 10(31) virus particles on earth, or more, or fewer?","volume":"202","author":"Mushegian","year":"2020","journal-title":"J.
