Mineralys Therapeutics on Monday reported positive topline results from a pair of pivotal studies of its lorundrostat drug candidate for the treatment of uncontrolled or resistant hypertension.
Mineralys said its Phase 3 Launch-HTN and Phase 2 Advance-HTN studies achieved statistical significance and were clinically meaningful in their pre-specified primary efficacy endpoints while showing a favorable safety and tolerability profile.
The Radnor, Pa., clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company said it believes the clinical profile observed for lorundrostat supports the potential regulatory approval of the drug, which it said has the potential to be a transformative new therapy for the roughly 15 million to 20 million people in the U.S. living with uncontrolled hypertension.
Trading in shares of Mineralys, which closed Friday at $10.52, was halted premarket on Monday.
