The Company will use the proceeds to progress its lead discovery programme through IND-enabling studies and to extend its patent estate.

Key Points: 
  • The Company will use the proceeds to progress its lead discovery programme through IND-enabling studies and to extend its patent estate.
  • It affects over 12 million people worldwide, with 50% of patients developing kidney failure by the age of 60.
  • The disease is caused predominantly by mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 gene and is characterized by uncontrolled growth of fluid-filled cysts in the kidney.
  • Robust in vitro and disease model data show significant efficacy across all disease endpoints, including a reduction in cyst number and kidney volume.

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- DelveInsight's ADPKD Market Insights report includes a comprehensive understanding of current treatment practices, ADPKD emerging drugs, market share of individual therapies, and current and forecasted market size from 2019 to 2032, segmented into 7MM [the United States, the EU5 (the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, France, and Germany), Japan].

Key Points: 
  • In addition, the approval and entry of new drugs will change the ADPKD market dynamics in the future.
  • As per DelveInsight estimates, the ADPKDmarket size in the 7MM was approximately USD 1,077 million in 2021.
  • Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease also called "adult PKD," is the most common inherited kidney disorder characterized by cyst growth in the kidneys, which increases with disease progression and results in renal failure.
  • Implementing these measures early in the disease should slow the progression of kidney (renal) disease and, to some extent, preserve kidney function.
