GRI Bio presents new Phase 2a biomarker data for GRI-0621 in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 other Written later

GRI Bio, Inc. issued a press release on September 8, 2026 presenting new translational biomarker data from its Phase 2a GRI-0621-IPF-02 study of oral tazarotene in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and posted an updated corporate presentation. The filing reports that the 12-week, 35-patient study showed a placebo-adjusted FVC change of +99 mL overall, but the company states the study was not powered for efficacy and the FVC endpoint was exploratory, so the data do not establish clinical benefit.

  • The study enrolled 35 patients: 23 on GRI-0621 and 12 on placebo; the FVC endpoint was exploratory and the study was not powered for efficacy.
  • Data were presented at the 2026 European Respiratory Society Congress in Barcelona, Spain, and the company said totality of findings supports advancing GRI-0621 in the IPF program.
  • The filing was made under Items 7.01, 8.01 and 9.01 and includes Exhibits 99.1 (corporate presentation) and 99.2 (press release).
