BioAegis says its 'inflammation regulator' is best weapon against Covid-19
BioAegis Therapeutics believes that its lead product, recombinant human plasma gelsolin therapy , is a viable therapeutic option for patients suffering from severe lung injury due to Covid-19.
The company has built a portfolio of therapies around this unique anti-inflammatory to treat a wide range of conditions, including influenza, pneumonia, arthritis, Alzheimers, lupus, inflammatory bowel disease and multiple sclerosis. To focus on developing therapies for infectious, inflammatory and degenerative diseases through a portfolio built around plasma gelsolin therapeutics, Stossel co-founded BioAegis in 2011 and became chief scientific advisor to his clinical stage biotech company.
"We've been studying this exact same condition — not with this particular virus, but with severe flu, severe pneumonia — for years, so we feel like we are in the perfect position to treat this disease," said BioAegis CEO Dr. Susan Levinson.
