Angion Biomedica Corp. (NASDAQ:ANGN), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule therapeutics to address acute organ injuries and fibrotic diseases, announced today it is scheduled to host a virtual research and development day focused on its product candidate ANG-3070, a novel, highly selective, and orally-bioavailable small molecule tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of fibrotic diseases, including those in the kidney and lung, at 10:00am EDT on Monday, September 20^th.

The event will feature presentations by two medical experts, including Joseph V. Bonventre, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School, who will discuss the current treatment landscape and unmet medical needs of patients with kidney fibrosis, and Gregory P. Downey, M.D., National Jewish Health, who will discuss the current treatment landscape and unmet medical needs of patients with lung fibrosis.

With this context, Angion’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. John Neylan, and Dr. Shakil Aslam, its VP of Early Clinical Development and Translational Medicine, will discuss the pre-clinical and clinical rationale for the development of ANG-3070, which is currently being investigated in a Phase 2 study in patients with primary proteinuric kidney disease.

A live Q&A will follow the presentations.
