Notes for Editors
About Synairgen
Synairgen is a clinical-stage respiratory drug discovery and
development company founded by University of Southampton Professors
Sir Stephen Holgate, Donna Davies and Ratko Djukanovic.
Synairgen is currently focused on developing its product
candidate, SNG001 (inhaled interferon beta) for the treatment of
COVID-19. SNG001 is potentially the first host-targeted
broad-spectrum antiviral treatment delivered directly into the
lungs. The Company is evaluating nebulised SNG001 in its Phase III
clinical programme, which has been deemed an Urgent Public Health
study by the UK's National Institute for Health Research (NIHR).
SNG001 has also been granted Fast Track status from the US Food and
Drug Administration (FDA). In a Phase II trial, COVID-19 patients
with marked/severe breathlessness demonstrated a threefold greater
chance of recovery when treated with SNG001 versus placebo.
Synairgen is quoted on AIM (LSE: SNG). For more information
