Notes

DBV Technologies is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Bagneux, France, with operations in the United States.

The company's lead product candidate, Viaskin Peanut, is being developed for the treatment of peanut allergy in children. DBV Technologies has been working towards FDA approval for Viaskin Peanut, which would represent a novel approach to treating food allergies through a non-invasive patch delivery system.
