Ebenbuild GmbH is hoping that its digital twin technology platform that combines AI and physics-based computational models tailored to individual patients will transform respiratory care. From drug development to optimizing mechanical ventilation in critical care, the company’s software-based solutions aim to reveal what is happening in the ‘black box’ of the lungs, helping clinicians to improve outcomes and reduce mortality.
Chengdu Sibeibo Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. has divulged deuterated derivatives of taladegib acting as Hedgehog signaling inhibitors and protein smoothened (SMO) antagonists reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
As the systematic dismantling of the U.S. vaccine schedule escalates, the demands to hold Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy accountable are growing. Claiming that Kennedy has turned his back on science and is endangering public health, Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., formally introduced articles of impeachment against him Dec. 10 for “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Under the Constitution, federal officials can only be impeached for treason, bribery and “other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Researchers at the Institut Pasteur have developed a vaccine that spurred the production of autoantibodies to immunoglobulin E antibodies, protecting vaccinated mice from anaphylaxis.
Researchers at the Institut Pasteur have developed a vaccine that spurred the production of autoantibodies to immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies, protecting vaccinated mice from anaphylaxis. In their paper, which they published in Science Translational Medicine on Dec. 3, 2025, the authors noted that the polyclonal antibodies generated by their vaccine lasted “for up to 12 months postvaccination with a similar avidity as the approved anti-IgE mAb omalizumab [Xolair, Roche AG].”
Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) is a condition characterized by increased pulmonary artery pressure caused by prolonged exposure to a hypoxic environment. It frequently occurs among individuals residing at high altitudes and those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Wall Street was sorting through two batches of news from Jasper Therapeutics Inc., which made public positive data from the phase Ib study called Etesian with KIT-targeting briquilimab in adults with allergic asthma, while making known the outcome of a probe into the phase Ib/II Beacon study with the same drug in chronic spontaneous urticaria.
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG has described cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (MB21D1; cGAS) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of autoinflammatory interferonopathy, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, cirrhosis, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), interstitial lung diseases, systemic scleroderma (systemic sclerosis) and systemic lupus erythematosus.
NIH researchers report that in severe influenza, survival improves at late stages only when antivirals are combined with therapies that repair lung damage or limit harmful T-cell responses, explaining why anti-inflammatory treatments alone are often ineffective.
A precision medicine diagnostic system developed by Diag-Nose Medical Pty. Ltd. could potentially transform the management of chronic respiratory diseases. Co-founders Eldin Rostrom, David Yen, Brian Wang and Josie Xu set out to explore why patients with similar respiratory symptoms respond so differently to treatment.
