About Velaris Therapeutics

Velaris Therapeutics is a biotechnology company advancing a pipeline of potentially transformative therapies for pulmonary hypertension and related cardiopulmonary diseases. Velaris is developing ActRII-Fc ligand traps and complementary biologics designed to maximize the potential of these classes of therapies. VLR199, with broad ligand activity, is designed to replicate clinically validated pharmacology but improving where it is not fully optimized. VLR247 and VLR258, featuring distinct ActRII extracellular domains, are designed to spare BMP-9 and BMP-10 and lower risk for hematologic adverse events. The pipeline also features VLR360, an anti-PDGF-B monoclonal antibody, which offers a complementary approach that alone or in combination with the ActRII-Fcs is designed to address the signaling imbalances that drive remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature. Velaris’ assets were discovered by Paragon Labs. Velaris is based in Waltham, MA. For more information, visit velaristx.com.
