- InflaRx N.V. provided a development update for its monoclonal anti-C5a antibody, vilobelimab, in pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) and severe COVID-19.
- The FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have granted orphan drug designation to vilobelimab for PG.

- Based on the agency's feedback and recommendations, InflaRx is now finalizing the design for a Phase 3 trial.
- InflaRx requested a meeting with the FDA to obtain guidance for a potential emergency use authorization submission of vilobelimab in COVID-19 patients.
- This has been scheduled as a Type B meeting for early Q3. In addition, the company is in ongoing dialogue with the EMA about the next steps in developing vilobelimab in mechanically ventilated severe COVID-19 patients.
