Alveolus Bio Partners with Shilpa Medicare to Revolutionize Lung Disease Treatments

Alveolus Bio, a pioneering biotech firm specializing in respiratory drug development, has recently secured a significant strategic investment from Shilpa Medicare, a leading global pharmaceutical company known for its expertise in respiratory therapeutics manufacturing. Founded by Dr. Vivek Lal at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Alveolus Bio is positioned to advance its innovative treatments for various lung diseases.

The investment marks a crucial step for Alveolus Bio as it aims to elevate its lead therapeutic asset designed for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and proceed to Phase 2 clinical trials and first-in-human studies.
