World IBD Day Reminds us of the High Remaining Unmet Medical Need

May 19 is World IBD day and we are reminded of our goal to help patients who are suffering from inflammatory bowel disease. Currently there is no cure for these debilitating diseases that change the lives of millions of patients and their close ones around the globe.

At PharmaBiome, we are passionate about the microbiome and its therapeutic potential. Our lead compound is rapidly advancing towards clinical testing in ulcerative colitis. In honor of World IBD day, we have supported video artist Doris Oberneder’s perspective on ‘Real talk about intestinal bacteria – is there hope for a cure to IBD?’. It features Bruno Giardina (President Crohn Colitis Switzerland), Gerhard Rogler (Head of Gastroenterology at Zurich University hospital) and Tomas de Wouters (Co-founder and CEO of Pharmabiome).
