Business Wire
Appili Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company” or “Appili”), a
biopharmaceutical company focused on anti-infective drug
development, announced today that Appili’s CEO Dr. Armand Balboni
will be a panelist at the upcoming “Infectious Disease Virtual
Conference” presented by Maxim Group. Dr. Balboni will be
discussing Appili’s ATI-2307 program, a novel antifungal for
resistant infections that the Company acquired from FUJIFILM Toyama
Chemical in 2019. The conference, called, The Renaissance of the
Anti-infective Sector, will occur online on Tuesday, May 5,
2020.
Presentation details are as follows:
- Date: Tuesday, May 5, 2020
- 12:15 – 1:45 p.m. ET
- Panel: Antifungals
About the Conference
The conference consists of four panels of companies in various
stages of development, from early stage to near commercialization,
that represent the next wave of innovation in the infectious
disease sector. While COVID-19 has captured the world's attention
for now, there is another pandemic that has been smoldering beneath
the surface; drug resistant bacteria and fungi driving alarming
rates of invasive disease, which result in high rates of mortality
and a significant burden on the healthcare system. The lag in
development of novel anti-infectives is multi-factorial, but moving
through 2020 and beyond, there is a renaissance in drug development
taking place that has not been observed for some time. This
includes novel drugs and new drug classes, changes in regulatory
guidelines and incentives for drug developers, changes to clinical
trial design and execution, changes in views from payers and the
investment community.
