“ALX1 has dual antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity without the concerns of drug resistance and renal toxicity associated with traditional antibiotics,” stated Nathan Stasko, Chief Executive Officer of Vast Therapeutics. “A non-intermittent therapy with no ‘on-off’ periods is desperately needed to sustainably improve the quality of life and decrease the number of hospitalizations experienced by these patients.”

About Vast Therapeutics
Vast is a life science company focused on breaking the debilitating cycle of chronic infection and inflammation in respiratory diseases. This cycle affects patients across the entire spectrum of human life, ranging from children with rare orphan diseases like cystic fibrosis (CF) to adults with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) to the highly prevalent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We believe our product candidates may provide an effective treatment for patients chronically infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, NTM, and other drug-resistant microbes.
