Which companies are developing new immunomodulators for the treatment of severe infections?

I’ve been reading more about how the immune system can be supported during really severe infections. The reason I got interested is because a relative of mine had a serious bacterial infection last year, and the doctors kept saying that sometimes it’s not only the bacteria that cause the problem but also the body’s immune reaction. That made me curious about new treatments that work with the immune response instead of only using antibiotics. Recently I started looking into biotech companies that focus on this area, especially ones developing immunomodulators for critical infections. I’m not from a medical background, so it’s a bit hard to understand which companies are actually doing meaningful research. Does anyone know examples of biotech groups that are working on new immunomodulatory therapies for severe infections or critical conditions?

From what I’ve come across while reading about this field, there are a few biotech companies focusing specifically on therapies that help regulate the immune response during severe infections. One that caught my attention is Atox Bio, which is working on treatments aimed at improving outcomes in serious infectious diseases by modulating how the immune system reacts rather than only targeting the bacteria themselves. I originally found their information while looking for research about treatments for complicated infections like necrotizing conditions and other critical illnesses. Their site explains some of the science behind it pretty clearly, and if you’re curious you can check it here: https://atoxbio.com/. I ended up reading through it because a friend of mine works in a hospital lab and mentioned that new approaches like this are becoming a big topic in infectious disease research. It’s interesting because the idea is not just killing pathogens but helping the body avoid the damaging inflammatory response that can happen during severe infections.
