InflaRx N.V. (NASDAQ: IFRX) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing inhibitors using C5a technology, primarily in Germany and the United States. The company focuses on targeting the complement activation factor known as C5a, an inflammatory mediator linked to various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
InflaRx's lead product candidate is vilobelimab (formerly known as IFX-1), a first-in-class, intravenously delivered anti-C5a monoclonal antibody. Vilobelimab has completed Phase IIb clinical trials for treating hidradenitis suppurativa, a rare and chronic inflammatory skin disease, as well as for ANCA-associated vasculitis, a life-threatening autoimmune condition, and pyoderma gangrenosum, a chronic inflammatory skin disorder. Additionally, the company is exploring vilobelimab’s potential in treating oncological diseases.
InflaRx is also developing IFX-2, another anti-inflammatory and autoimmune disease treatment currently in pre-clinical development. The company’s proprietary C5a/C5aR technology enables the creation of potent and specific inhibitors, positioning InflaRx as a pioneer in this niche therapeutic area.
The company has established a co-development agreement with Beijing Defe, enhancing its research and development capacity. InflaRx's innovative therapies aim to significantly improve patient outcomes in diseases with substantial unmet medical needs.
InflaRx has amended its existing co-development agreement with Staidson (Beijing) BioPharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.

There's an option for a further USD 7.5 million investment contingent on STS obtaining regulatory approval. This partnership enhances InflaRx's financial position amid rising COVID-19 cases in China.
