Stockholm, August 29, 2024 – Vicore Pharma Holding AB (publ), unlocking the potential of a new class of drug candidates, angiotensin II type 2 receptor agonists (ATRAGs), today announced multiple presentations at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Congress 2024, including an oral presentation and three poster presentations spanning preclinical and clinical data supporting the transformative potential of buloxibutid for patients suffering from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The ERS Congress 2024 will be held September 7–11 in Vienna, Austria.

“We are pleased to showcase a series of presentations at the ERS Congress 2024,” said Ahmed Mousa, Chief Executive Officer of Vicore Pharma. “In addition to further Phase 2a AIR data, these presentations will highlight the power of our tissue repair mechanism to impact human IPF lung tissues and the precise cell types responsible for driving the fibrotic process in this disease. We also look forward to sharing more information on the patient-friendly design of our Phase 2b ASPIRE trial of buloxibutid in IPF to drive efficient enrollment.”
