Avalyn Pharma
AVLN · Nasdaq Filing snapshotAvalyn Pharma is a clinical-stage biopharma developing inhaled formulations of approved oral medicines for serious respiratory diseases. Its lead candidates, AP01 and AP02, are inhaled versions of pirfenidone and nintedanib — the two approved oral drugs for progressive pulmonary fibrosis — delivered through PARI's eFlow nebulizer to raise lung exposure and cut systemic side effects. The company has not generated revenue. Its $18.00 Nasdaq IPO raised $300M gross. The filing names the approved-drug makers Boehringer Ingelheim (Ofev) and Genentech/Roche (Esbriet), plus a deep pipeline field including Pliant, Insmed, Bristol Myers Squibb and others.
Reformulates the two approved IPF drugs as inhaled versions — so it competes head-on with the makers of Ofev (Boehringer Ingelheim) and Esbriet (Roche/Genentech) using their own molecules, against a pipeline of a dozen more. Clinical-stage, no revenue; a $300M raise.
