Nano24’s inhaled exosome therapy reduces mortality in a phase 2b ARDS trial, the FDA grants fast track designation to Nuravax’s preventive Alzheimer vaccine, and Bionyra’s long-acting anti-TL1A antibody shows a half-life that could support dosing every 3 to 6 months.

METiS TechBio will apply its AI-driven AiLNP ionizable lipid platform to discover LNPs designed to deliver therapeutics beyond the liver, under a collaboration with Eli Lilly worth up to $1.1 billion in milestones.

Interim phase 1 data presented at UEG Week 2026 showed Bionyra Pharma’s Fc-engineered anti-TL1A antibody BYN-002 suppressed soluble TL1A with a half-life supporting potential every-3-to-6-month maintenance dosing in IBD.

Inhaled EXO-CD24 kept 85% of patients with ARDS free of respiratory failure at day 7 vs 33.3% with placebo in a 90-patient phase 2b trial.

Nuravax will test AV-1959R in a 160-adult phase 2 trial to see whether the amyloid vaccine can prevent Alzheimer disease before symptoms begin.

The American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists appointed former president Patrick J. Sinko as chief science officer to lead its scientific strategy, programming, and peer-reviewed journals.

The FDA grants accelerated approval to dostarlimab for rectal cancer, Lilly reports one-year remission data for pediatric ulcerative colitis, and Johnson & Johnson shares longer-term fistula remission results for Tremfya.

Accelerated approval for dostarlimab-gxly (Jemperli) pairs a single-arm phase 2 dataset with an FDA-authorized biomarker test and confirmatory requirements.
