The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $306,321 Project Grant to Lybra Bio Inc. on September 24, 2025 under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855). The grant funds the development of a microneedle-based patch, called the LybraPatch, that delivers cytokines IL-2 and CCL22 to selectively expand skin-resident regulatory T cells (Tregs) for the management of autoimmune skin diseases, such as alopecia areata. The project aims to further define the optimal IL-2 dosage to promote Treg expansion without activating pro-inflammatory effector T cells, with the goal of advancing the LybraPatch towards IND-enabling studies. The project is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2026.
