Company Overview

Palvella Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies for patients with rare genetic and dermatologic diseases. The company uses its proprietary QTORIN platform to formulate and deliver medicines locally to affected tissues, with the goal of improving treatment effectiveness while limiting systemic exposure.

Palvella’s lead program is QTORIN 3.9% rapamycin, an investigational topical gel being developed for microcystic lymphatic malformations, rare lesions caused by abnormalities in the lymphatic system. The company has also evaluated QTORIN-based rapamycin formulations in other rare skin disorders, including pachyonychia congenita, a painful inherited disease affecting the nails, skin and feet.

Based in Wayne, Pennsylvania, Palvella is advancing its pipeline through clinical development and regulatory activities in the United States. The company’s programs are intended to address conditions for which treatment options remain limited, and its strategy is centered on developing targeted therapies for underserved rare-disease populations.
