Rein Therapeutics is a clinical-stage company developing LTI-03, an inhaled peptide for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a scarring lung disease. It has no approved products.
Rein's case rests on LTI-03, an inhaled seven-amino-acid peptide that mimics part of caveolin-1, a protein lost in fibrotic lungs. In a Phase 1b trial both doses were well tolerated, and five exploratory biomarkers moved favorably at the higher dose. The Phase 2 RENEW trial plans to enroll about 120 patients, with interim data due in the fourth quarter of 2026. A $57.5 million offering in May funds RENEW to completion. Cash is expected to last into the first quarter of 2028.
