Ferring Pharmaceuticals and Gubra entered into a collaboration agreement to further develop and characterize preclinical animal models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The collaboration aims to advance our early pipeline of targets in intestinal inflammation and fibrosis. Over the next year, we will conduct studies to help us understand the onset and progression of disease in preclinical models of IBD and validate tool compounds. In addition, Ferring and Gubra will collaborate to develop and standardise methods to assess fibrosis in the intestine, focusing on histological features that are translatable to human disease.
