Ardelyx to Present Additional Data Supporting First-In-Class XPHOZAH(R) (tenapanor) for Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease on Dialysis at the National Kidney Foundation 2024 Spring Clinical MeetingsGlobeNewswireMay 01, 2024WALTHAM, Mass., May 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ardelyx, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARDX), a biopharmaceutical company founded with a mission to discover, develop and commercialize innovative, first-in-class medicines that meet significant unmet medical needs, today announced that additional data supporting XPHOZAH(R) (tenapanor) will be presented at the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) 2024 Spring Clinical Meetings, to be held May 14-18, 2024, in Long Beach, California. XPHOZAH, the first and only phosphate absorption inhibitor (PAI), is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to reduce serum phosphorus in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis as add-on therapy in patients who have an inadequate response to phosphate binders or who are intolerant of any dose of phosphate binder therapy. XPHOZAH offers a different mechanism of action that blocks phosphate absorption at the primary pathway and is administered as a single tablet taken twice daily.
Title: Tenapanor Treatment Added to Phosphate Binders Improved Long-Term Serum Phosphate (P) Control as Measured by Reduction in Average Daily P Area Under the CurveAuthors: Kevin J. Martin, David M. Spiegel, Yang Yang, David Rosenbaum, Susan Edelstein, Laura WilliamsPoster Number: 239Date/Time: May 15, 2024, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM PDT (UTC -7)
Title: Treatment Response to Tenapanor Categorized by Age and Comorbidities: A Post Hoc Analysis of the PHREEDOM StudyAuthors: Daniel Weiner, David M. Spiegel, Yang Yang, David Rosenbaum, Susan EdelsteinPoster Number: 243Date/Time: May 15, 2024, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM PDT (UTC -7)
Title: Patient Perception of Phosphate-Lowering Treatment Regimen Improves Adherence to TherapyAuthors: Amy Mosman, Susan Edelstein, David M. Spiegel, Suling Zhao, David RosenbaumPoster Number: 240Date/Time: May 15, 2024, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM PDT (UTC -7)
In addition to the poster presentations during NKF Spring Clinical Meetings, Ardelyx is sponsoring an Exhibitor Showcase titled: "A New Paradigm: Rethinking Hyperphosphatemia Management," on May 17, 2024, from 8:30-9:05 AM PDT, where David M. Spiegel, MD and Lisa Gutekunst MSEd, RD, CSR, CDN, FNKF, will discuss first-in-class PAI, XPHOZAH. The presentation will review the XPHOZAH mechanism of action, efficacy and safety data from the Phase 3 clinical trial program and will include a discussion about the clinical application of XPHOZAH as add-on therapy for the many dialysis patients on a phosphate binder with serum phosphorus levels above guideline-established targets.
About XPHOZAH(R) (tenapanor)XPHOZAH, discovered and developed by Ardelyx, is a first-in-class, phosphate absorption inhibitor with a differentiated mechanism of action that acts locally in the gut to inhibit the sodium hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3), thereby reducing phosphate absorption through the paracellular pathway, the primary pathway of phosphate absorption. XPHOZAH is a single tablet, taken twice daily. Diarrhea was the most common side effect experienced by patients taking XPHOZAH in clinical trials. Please see additional full Prescribing Information.
About HyperphosphatemiaHyperphosphatemia is a serious condition, defined as elevated levels of phosphate in the blood, which affects the vast majority of the 550,000 patients in the United States with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on maintenance dialysis. The kidneys are responsible for eliminating excess phosphate and as kidney function declines, phosphate is not adequately eliminated from the body. As a result, hyperphosphatemia is a nearly universal condition among people with CKD on maintenance dialysis, with internationally recognized KDIGO treatment guidelines that recommend lowering elevated phosphate levels toward the normal range (2.5-4.5mg/dL).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION CONTRAINDICATIONSXPHOZAH is contraindicated in:
Pediatric patients under 6 years of agePatients with known or suspected mechanical gastrointestinal obstructionWARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSDiarrhea Patients may experience severe diarrhea. Treatment with XPHOZAH should be discontinued in patients who develop severe diarrhea.
MOST COMMON ADVERSE REACTIONS Diarrhea, which occurred in 43-53% of patients, was the only adverse reaction reported in at least 5% of XPHOZAH-treated patients with CKD on dialysis across trials. The majority of diarrhea events in the XPHOZAH-treated patients were reported to be mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved over time, or with dose reduction. Diarrhea was typically reported soon after initiation but could occur at any time during treatment with XPHOZAH. Severe diarrhea was reported in 5% of XPHOZAH-treated patients in these trials.
INDICATION XPHOZAH (tenapanor), 30 mg BID, is indicated to reduce serum phosphorus in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis as add-on therapy in patients who have an inadequate response to phosphate binders or who are intolerant of any dose of phosphate binder therapy.
