Strategic vision and clinical focus

  • Aims to transform treatment for advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) with rilparencel, an autologous cell therapy targeting high-risk patients facing kidney failure.

  • FDA alignment on accelerated approval pathway using eGFR slope as a surrogate endpoint; pivotal Phase III topline results expected in Q2 2027.

  • Over 150 patients treated in phase II trials, showing kidney function stabilization and favorable safety profile; phase III pivotal readout expected in Q2 2027.

  • Focused on a single product, with robust clinical data, experienced leadership, and a cash runway extending past mid-2027.

  • Manufacturing expansion underway in North Carolina, with two new buildings totaling 180,000 sq ft to support commercial launch and BLA submission.

Clinical development and study design

  • Phase III PROACT 1 study targets advanced CKD and type 2 diabetes patients, using a randomized, sham-controlled, blinded design.

  • Enrollment for accelerated approval efficacy analysis expected to complete by mid-2026, with top-line readout in Q2 2027.

  • Power calculations for phase III are conservative, assuming a 1.5 ml/min difference in eGFR slope, despite phase II showing >4 ml/min difference.

  • Subgroup analyses and safety are key components of the upcoming top-line readout.

  • Target population for phase III narrowed to eGFR 20–35 to focus on highest-risk patients.

Rilparencel manufacturing and mechanism of action

  • Manufactured from patient’s own kidney cells, with no gene editing, preconditioning, or immunosuppression required.

  • Process involves kidney biopsy, cell expansion to over a billion cells, and bilateral kidney injections three months apart.

  • Final product primarily contains tubular and epithelial cells with reduced inflammatory and fibrotic markers.

  • Working hypothesis: injected cells exert anti-inflammatory effects and leverage innate kidney repair mechanisms, but do not form new nephrons.

  • Ongoing R&D and mechanism of action studies, with data expected throughout 2026 and presentations at major conferences.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
