Altasciences is pleased to have been chosen by XORTX Therapeutics, Inc. to conduct a pharmacokinetic bridging study in support of the XRx-008 program for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), and XRx-101 for acute kidney injury associated with COVID-19. XORTX’s novel, proprietary formulations of xanthine oxidase inhibitors are aimed at reducing uric acid levels in order to slow the progression of the genetic disorder ADPKD, and protect against acute kidney injury following COVID-19 infection.

The first of several clinical trials to characterize XORTX’s novel, proprietary formulations of xanthine oxidase inhibitors, its purpose is to determine whether the increased bioavailability of oxypurinol demonstrated for this formulation in preclinical studies will be replicated in humans.

This study marks the first of several clinical trials planned for the next year and an exciting opportunity to advance our kidney disease programs through preliminary characterization, followed by late stage registration trials.

With a pressing need for better therapeutic options and a global prevalence of kidney disease, we are proud to partner with XORTX for such an important study.
