So the quote you included was taken from this article

https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/news/inhalation-intestinal-hormone-vip-helps-against-immunotherapy-induced-pneumonia

Yes aviptadil is the subject of the article--from summary paragraph:
"Over the past ten years, various neuropeptides that induce anti-inflammatory activities and play a major role in the self-tolerance of the immune system have been identified. Aviptadil and other neuropeptides interrupt the signalling pathways involved in the expression of multiple inflammatory mediators. This makes them interesting candidates for treating diseases where the immune system is out of balance. Use in COVID-19 treatment can also be envisaged. "The virus is usually eliminated quite well," says Müller-Quernheim. "But lung damage is a collateral effect of an excessive immune response, and this can be attenuated."
