About:
Alveolus Bio is a clinical phase company creating therapeutics for chronic lung disease with an interdisciplinary team of experts in respiratory medicine and microbiome science. Their pre-clinical programs include inhalable, live biotherapeutic products for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD), Pulmonary Fibrosis, lung injury secondary to viral illness, and Neutrophilic Asthma. Since microbial signature changes in the lungs are associated with inflammation and respiratory disease progression, Alveolus Bio attempts to use anti-inflammatory commensal bacteria strains and byproducts as a direct, inhalable treatment for lung disease.
