Pharmaceutical Company Reveals Major Translational Data For COPD Treatment

ASLAN Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: ASLN), a clinical-stage, immunology-focused biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing innovative treatments for patients, has announced a significant late-breaking poster presentation at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) International Conference 2024 in San Diego, California. The company revealed promising translational data from head-to-head studies of eblasakimab and dupilumab in both healthy and COPD-derived lung tissue models. “We are pleased to present the translational data that we have generated on eblasakimab in COPD at this prestigious conference. Eblasakimab showed significant improvement across all measured bronchial outcomes, a result we believe may be attributed to the potential of eblasakimab to inhibit the Type 2 receptor complex more efficiently than approved biologics, resulting in greater reduction in Th2 cytokine activity. Since airway hyperresponsiveness is clinically shared across asthma, COPD, and other lung disorders, these data support the further investigation of eblasakimab in a range of Type 2-driven lung conditions,” said Dr. Carl Firth, Chief Executive Officer, ASLAN Pharmaceuticals. $Aslan Pharmaceuticals(ASLN.US)$
