This collaboration will supply clinical trial material for Polyrizon’s experimental allergy blocker, PL-14, which is set to enter clinical trials in 2025.
The PL-14 allergy blocker is part of Polyrizon’s effort to develop innovative nasal sprays that create a hydrogel-based shield in the nasal cavity, protecting against allergens and viruses.
The manufacturing deal secures a compliant supply chain for the clinical trial, marking a key milestone for the development-stage biotech firm.
Retail chatter on Stocktwits has been overwhelmingly bullish.

Despite the poor debut, Polyrizon has gained 90% so far this year following Wednesday’s surge, although it remains below its IPO price.
Over the past month, the stock has seen a meteoric rise in popularity, adding 1,576% more followers on Stocktwits amid a 10,300% spike in message volume.
