$Unicycive Therapeutics(UNCY.US$ Unicycive Therapeutics Achieves Study Objectives in Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC) Pivotal Clinical Trial
LOS ALTOS, Calif., June 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: UNCY), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies for patients with kidney disease (the “Company” or “Unicycive”), today announced positive results from the Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC) UNI-OLC-201 pivotal clinical trial with regard to both safety and tolerability endpoints. OLC is a next-generation lanthanum-based phosphate binding agent utilizing proprietary nanoparticle technology being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The study established promising tolerability of OLC at clinically effective doses in CKD patients on hemodialysis. In terms of tolerability, OLC had a low rate of discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) with only 5/86 patients (6%) discontinuing from the Study. Of the 5 discontinuations, 3 were treatment-related and 2 were not related to treatment. Importantly, the Company believes the low discontinuation rate for OLC compares favorably to a discontinuation rate due to AEs of 14% for Fosrenol® from its U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved Package Insert.
