Savara Inc.

The retrospective study evaluated five aPAP patients who received molgramostim through European single-patient access over a mean duration of 4.2 years.
The study demonstrated significant improvements including enhanced lung function, decreased disease burden, and reduced clinical symptoms.

Notably, while four patients required whole lung lavage (WLL) before treatment, none needed it after one year of molgramostim use. The treatment was well-tolerated with no serious adverse events reported.
