BRONCHOTHELIN The first-in-class disease-modifying drug for chronic airway disorders

Coordinator: EpiEndo Pharmaceuticals ehf (IS)

EpiEndo Pharmaceuticals is a drug development company focused on developing novel drugs that target epithelial differentiation and enhance regeneration and barrier function. In contrast to the prevailing anti-inflammatory approach to respiratory drug discovery, EpiEndo has come up with a novel paradigm-changing platform to develop drug candidates that alter (respiratory) epithelial stem cell differentiation and enhance epithelial regeneration of the airway epithelium.By rational design we have discovered and developed Bronchothelin, is the first-in-class disease-modifying treatment for Chroni…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €2.5M toward a total project budget of €3.6M — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2020-01-01 to 2021-12-31.
