Savara Inc. has released a presentation highlighting its efforts in developing new therapies for rare respiratory diseases, specifically focusing on autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (aPAP). The presentation details the challenges faced by patients with aPAP, a disease characterized by surfactant accumulation in the alveoli due to GM-CSF autoantibodies. The condition can lead to severe respiratory issues, including pulmonary fibrosis and potentially life-threatening respiratory failure, which may necessitate lung transplantation. Currently, there are no approved drugs in the U.S. or Europe for aPAP, and the only available treatment option involves an invasive procedure. The presentation underscores the urgent need for effective therapeutic solutions for this rare disease. You can access the full presentation through the link below.
