Avalo Therapeutics Inc. presented updates on its pipeline of novel IL-1β therapies for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, highlighting its lead compound AVTX-009, an anti-IL-1β monoclonal antibody. AVTX-009 is positioned as a potential best-in-class therapy for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), addressing unmet needs in patients with incomplete or lost response to current treatments. The company noted that AVTX-009 exhibits 15 times higher affinity and a longer half-life compared to lutikizumab, which may translate to higher efficacy and less frequent dosing. Enrollment for the Phase 2 LOTUS trial in HS is complete, with topline data expected in the second quarter of 2026. The HS market is projected to grow significantly, with additional indications for AVTX-009 under consideration. Avalo stated it has sufficient cash runway into 2028.
