    WAYNE, Pa. and ROCKVILLE, Md., March 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Avalo Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to treating immune dysregulation, today announced the appointment of Michael Heffernan as Chairman of the Board of Directors ("Board"). Mr. Heffernan will succeed Dr. Garry Neil as Chairman of the Board. Dr. Neil will continue as a Board member and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company.

    "We are thrilled to welcome Michael to Avalo's Board of Directors during this pivotal time in our Company's growth," said Dr. Garry Neil, CEO of Avalo Therapeutics. "Michael's extensive experience in building and leading biopharmaceutical companies, executing successful exits, and driving shareholder value will be invaluable as we advance our pipeline of targeted therapies for immune-mediated diseases, including our lead candidate, AVTX-009, currently in the Phase 2 LOTUS trial for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Additionally, I believe it is the right time to separate the role of Chairman and CEO as the Company continues to mature."

    "I am honored to assume the role of Chairman as Avalo continues to advance its pipeline and considers indication expansion," said Mr. Heffernan. "Avalo is well-positioned for success with a strong management team, a promising mechanism of action in HS, and sufficient capital to achieve a potentially transformative data readout from the LOTUS trial next year. I look forward to working closely with Garry, the leadership team, and fellow board members to help guide the Company's future growth and strategic direction."

    About Avalo Therapeutics

    Avalo Therapeutics is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the treatment of immune dysregulation. Avalo's lead asset is AVTX-009, an anti-IL-1β mAb, targeting inflammatory diseases. For more information about Avalo, please visit www.avalotx.com.

    About AVTX-009 

    AVTX-009 is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG4) that binds to interleukin-1β (IL-1β) with high affinity and neutralizes its activity. IL-1β is a central driver in the inflammatory process. Overproduction or dysregulation of IL-1β is implicated in many autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. IL-1β is a major, validated target for therapeutic intervention. There is evidence that inhibition of IL-1β could be effective in hidradenitis suppurativa and a variety of inflammatory diseases in dermatology, gastroenterology, and rheumatology.
