According to this article the patient in question got phage treatment and that virus culture is currently experimental in the USA to go after antibiotic resistant species.
However phages are currently approved in the country in Georgia as noted here.

Great work! Who wants to collaborate? Our labs are more advanced than those from the 1920's. A lot easier curing an infection with phages than curing cancer at the moment.
Each year in the United States, at least 2 million people become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics and at least 23,000 people die each year as a direct result of these infections. Many more people die from other conditions that were complicated by an antibiotic-resistant infection.
