LA JOLLA, Calif., March 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CalciMedica Inc. (CalciMedica or the Company) (Nasdaq: CALC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channel inhibition therapies for acute and chronic inflammatory and immunologic diseases, last evening presented data from preclinical studies of Auxora™ in acute kidney injury (AKI) at the 29th International Acute Kidney Injury and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy Conference (AKI & CRRT) in San Diego, CA. David Basile, Ph.D., Professor of Anatomy, Cell Biology and Physiology at Indiana University, gave an oral and poster presentation entitled "The Store-Operated Calcium Channel Inhibitor Auxora Improves Renal Function Following Ischemia-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Rats."

Key Points: 
  • In rats with kidney injury akin to Stage 3 AKI, the rats treated with placebo died while those on Auxora survived and showed modest recovery of GFR.
  • We are excited as these studies support clinical observations of Auxora that suggest the drug may be beneficial for AKI patients."
  • The data presented at AKI & CRRT was from a series of studies referred to as Study 1 and Study 2.
  • These results indicate that Auxora has the ability to hasten the recovery of kidney function and improve survival in rat models of AKI.
