We are pleased to announce that our lead therapeutic candidate, efzofitimod, for the treatment of pulmonary sarcoidosis will be featured in the Best of CHEST Journals session today at the CHEST 2024 Annual Meeting. Dr. Daniel A. Culver, Chair of the Division of Pulmonary Medicine at Cleveland Clinic, will discuss data from the Phase 1b/2a study that were previously published in the CHEST journal and a post hoc analysis of the study that was recently published in the European Respiratory Society.

Today we announced the publication of a post hoc analysis of the Phase 1b/2a study of efzofitimod in pulmonary sarcoidosis in the European Respiratory Journal. The publication reports positive findings when analyzing time-to-first relapse and relapse rate for corticosteroid use in therapeutic (3.0 and 5.0 mg/kg efzofitimod) vs subtherapeutic (1.0 mg/kg efzofitimod and placebo) groups. These findings further demonstrate the efficacy of efzofitimod, and we believe we are on the cusp of a paradigm shift in the treatment for sarcoidosis, where patients may have the opportunity to receive a clinically validated treatment option that can help reduce or avoid steroid-related toxicity. The publication, entitled, “Therapeutic Doses of Efzofitimod Demonstrate Efficacy in Pulmonary Sarcoidosis,” is available on the Journal’s website and at: https://lnkd.in/gkH5NeEW .

As we close out Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month, we would like to thank all of the organizations and individuals who worked to educate and generate awareness of this serious and often debilitating condition where there is scarring, or fibrosis, of the lungs. At aTyr, we will continue to support the pulmonary fibrosis (PF) community by working to develop efzofitimod as a potential treatment for those living with pulmonary sarcoidosis and SSc-ILD, two forms of interstitial lung disease (ILD) that can result in progressive fibrosis of the lungs.
