Quince Therapeutics to Host Virtual KOL Event to Discuss the Current Treatment Landscape for PH-ILD and BOS and the Role for LAM-001 as a Potential Therapeutic Option on September 28, 2026
Quince Therapeutics will host a virtual key opinion leader event on Monday, September 28, 2026, from 12:30-2:00 PM ET, focused on the current treatment landscape for pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS).
The event features PH-ILD experts Aaron B. Waxman (Brigham and Women's Hospital) and Paul Yu (Massachusetts General Hospital) plus BOS expert Steven Hays (UCSF Health), and will review LAM-001, the company's proprietary once-daily inhaled DPI formulation of rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor in Phase 2 development.
No new clinical data is being announced; LAM-001's fully enrolled Phase 2 BOS trial is expected to report in Q1 2027, the Phase 2b PH-ILD trial in Q1 2028, and a Phase 2 study in sarcoidosis-associated pulmonary hypertension is planned to begin in late 2026.
The release functions as an investor-education touchpoint ahead of those readouts, framing mTOR inhibition as a potentially disease-modifying mechanism across an estimated 200,000 PH-ILD patients in the U.S. and Europe.
