Roivant and Pulmovant Set Tuesday September 8 Phase 2 PHocus Topline Readout for Mosliciguat in Pulmonary Hypertension Associated With Interstitial Lung Disease at ERS Congress 2026

Roivant Sciences (NASDAQ: ROIV) and its Pulmovant subsidiary announced Sunday September 6, 2026 that Phase 2 PHocus topline results for mosliciguat (a once-daily inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase activator) in pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) will be presented Tuesday September 8, 2026 at 12:15 CEST (6:15 a.m. ET) at the European Respiratory Society Congress 2026 in Barcelona by Marc Humbert MD PhD (Université Paris-Saclay; French National Reference Center for Pulmonary Hypertension). The randomized double-blind placebo-controlled global trial enrolled 135 adults with PH-ILD; the primary endpoint is change from baseline in pulmonary vascular resistance at week 16, with the controlled period running through week 24. Roivant will host an investor call at 8:00 a.m. ET the same day. Mosliciguat is an sGC activator that works independently of heme and nitric oxide, differentiating it from sGC stimulators like riociguat. In the earlier Phase 1b ATMOS study a single inhaled dose produced a mean peak reduction in pulmonary vascular resistance of up to 38%. The PVR change versus placebo is the metric investors are watching; the same endpoint anchored the Phase 3 program for United Therapeutics' Tyvaso (treprostinil) in PH-ILD.
