Formerly known as HpVac, Atopia Therapeutics is committed to developing innovative therapies that target the underlying causes of allergies, offering hope and relief to patients worldwide. <br \/>Its lead compound ATP-R13 (formerly: HpVac-R13) is designed as an oral first-line preventive and therapeutic treatment against asthma, eczema, food allergies, and related type-2 atopic diseases. ATP-R13 remains in the stomach, interacts with dendritic cells and macrophages in the host\u2019s <i>lamina propria<\/i>, and induces the production of tolerizing dendritic cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs), which then migrate to draining lymph nodes, before dispersing to other target organs (lungs, skin, etc.). ATP-R13 has been shown to induce a state of tolerance and reduce inflammation in preclinical studies. <br \/>Atopia Therapeutics is based in Geneva, Switzerland.
