Strategic priorities

Pharvaris operates across 4 stated priorities, with the most concrete near-term plan anchored on commercial readiness by 2026.

Submit IR capsule NDA in 1H 2026 and ER tablet NDA shortly after, building complete U.S. commercial infrastructure to support the global launch of deucrictibant.

Displace the injectable-centric standard of care with oral deucrictibant, providing patients with convenient prophylactic and on-demand treatment options.

Initiate the CREAATE study in 2025 to expand into AAE-C1INH and explore other bradykinin-mediated diseases beyond hereditary angioedema.

Challenges we see

  • Operations Manufacturing

    CMC Validation and Dual-Formulation Scale-Up

    Managing manufacturing scale-up for both the 20 mg IR capsule and 40 mg ER tablet requires parallel supply chains with different technical requirements. The ER formulation uses an extended-release matrix sensitive to manufacturing variability.

    Risk of batch failures due to manufacturing variability in the extended-release matrix, potentially delaying NDA submission and market entry.

  • Digital Integration

    CDMO Visibility Gap

    As a virtualized manufacturer using outsourced GMP manufacturing, Pharvaris lacks direct visibility into production floor operations. Data from manufacturing runs is siloed within third-party systems.

    Delayed identification of quality excursions and inability to proactively address manufacturing issues before they impact product quality.

  • Digital Operations

    Fragmented Data Landscape

    Clinical trial data, pharmacokinetic modeling data, and CMC validation data exist in separate islands, hindering generation of a unified source of truth for regulatory submissions.

    Slow NDA compilation and risk discrepancies in data-from-source-to-scientist that could result in FDA or EMA warning letters.

  • Digital Regulatory

    Third-Party Cybersecurity Vulnerability

    Internal computer systems and those of third-party CMOs, CROs and consultants are acknowledged as vulnerable to computer viruses and disruptions, creating material risk to product development programs.

    Ransomware attacks or data leaks involving sensitive Phase 3 patient data could delay clinical trials and damage company reputation.

  • Compliance Regulatory

    Regulatory Compliance and ESG Pressures

    The 1H 2026 deadline for NDA submission combined with emerging ESG reporting mandates under Swiss and EU regulations create overlapping compliance requirements demanding rigorous data governance.

    Any data integrity discrepancy could result in regulatory rejection, while Compliance gaps with ESG mandates by 2030 could trigger fines and reputational damage.

Opportunities, by urgency and business impact

Each bubble is one opportunity, numbered to match the list below. Further right means it bites sooner; higher means a bigger effect on the business. A bigger bubble means a bigger implementation effort.

Source: A4BEE analysis of public sources
  1. Manufacturing Floor Visibility

    Pharvaris operates through distributed CDMOs but lacks real-time visibility into manufacturing operations, leading to delayed quality excursion detection and reactive rather than proactive production management.

    Implement an Industrial Data Platform using OPC UA protocols to provide real-time batch health dashboards, enabling the Technical Operations team to monitor CDMO production cycles and identify issues before they impact product quality.

  2. Lab Digitalization and Audit Readiness

    The Leiden translational research hub relies on paper-based workflows for complex biomarker assays, creating audit risks and fragmenting critical R&D data needed for regulatory filings.

    Deploy a Digital Lab solution to transition from source-to-scientist data capture, ensuring kinin biomarker data is automatically captured, contextualized, and audit-ready for FDA submission.

  3. Unified Regulatory Data Platform

    Clinical trial data, PK modeling data, and CMC validation data exist in separate silos, creating inefficiencies in NDA compilation and risk of data discrepancies during regulatory review.

    Build an ontology-based data lakehouse that serves as the single source of truth, automatically contextualizing data from diverse sources and enabling near real-time regulatory analytics.

  4. IT/OT Security Convergence

    Disconnect between corporate IT infrastructure and operational technology at CDMO sites creates cybersecurity vulnerabilities and hampers integrated data governance across the supply chain.

    Implement a secure IT/OT convergence framework with zero-trust architecture, protecting sensitive clinical and manufacturing data while enabling smooth data flow between Pharvaris and manufacturing partners.

  5. Commercial Supply Chain Readiness

    Transition from clinical supply to commercial supply requires massive upgrade in logistics software to manage specialty pharmacy networks and controlled distribution for the 2027 launch.

    Deploy digital twins of the supply chain to simulate specialty pharmacy demand surges and optimize inventory levels, reducing risk of stockouts for life-saving HAE medication.

What we'd propose

  • Enterprise AI

    CDMO Industrial Data Platform

    End-to-end manufacturing visibility platform connecting Pharvaris to its CDMO network via OPC UA, providing real-time batch health monitoring and predictive quality analytics.

    • Ontology layer

      A shared semantic model so lab, process, and quality data describe the same things the same way.

      DETAIL

    • Predictive models

      Models trained on the historical data plane that flag deviations before they become scrap.

      DETAIL

    • Decision surfaces

      Single pane of glass that surfaces model output to the right role at the right moment.

      DETAIL

    • Shorter lead time from data capture to decision.
    • Records that audit on their own, not on inspection day.
    • Scale without adding the same headcount.
  • Digital Lab

    Digital Lab Transformation for Translational Research

    Comprehensive lab digitalization program for the Leiden R&D hub, automating biomarker assay workflows and ensuring regulatory-compliant data capture from source to scientist.

    • Unified data backbone

      Connect instruments and LIMS into a single data spine so QC and CDMO records are queryable across sites.

      DETAIL

    • Paperless workflows

      Move lab execution from paper to instrument-captured records with full audit trail.

      DETAIL

    • Continuous QC release

      Review-by-exception dashboards that flag only the records needing scientist attention.
