AstraZeneca PLC and Ardelyx, Inc. Sign Licensing Agreement for NHE3 Inhibitor Programme

AstraZeneca PLC and Ardelyx, Inc. have signed a exclusive licensing agreement for Ardelyx's NHE3 inhibitor programme for the treatment of complications associated with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The NHE3, the sodium-hydrogen antiporter 3, inhibitor programme includes the Phase 2-ready lead compound RDX5791. The partnership will focus on developing RDX5791 for use in ESRD and CKD in addition to irritable bowel syndrome and evaluating possible development in other diseases that are a consequence of sodium and fluid overload. AstraZeneca CVGI Innovative Medicines vice president and head Gunnar Olsson said the licensing agreement will enable the development of new medicines for people with renal complications, including those resulting from diabetes. With a novel mechanism of action, RDX5791 has the potential to have a major impact on how doctors treat these patients.
