Addressing Important Unmet Needs
Unicycive Therapeutics is a different type of biotech company. Unlike most firms in this space, Unicycive was built from the ground up in only three years. Additionally, they are focused on diseases of the kidney, a space that has had a shortage of effective and convenient solutions.
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) ranges between stages 1 through 5, with 1 being the least severe and 5 being the most. Stage 5 is called End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), where kidney function has declined to the point that patients require a kidney transplant or go on long-term dialysis to maintain life. At this late stage of CKD, elevated phosphorus, known as hyperphosphatemia, becomes a serious problem that needs to be addressed. Unfortunately, phosphate control can become a real challenge for CKD patients because, currently, available therapies require a burdensome number of large pills. Unicycive's drug Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), if approved, promises to reduce that burden dramatically.
That phosphate control can become incredibly uncomfortable for ESRD sufferers as the number of pills that are necessary can be a major burden. Unicycive's drug Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC) intends to reduce that burden dramatically.
Unicycive's management team and board of directors are steeped in experience, both in the medical industry as well as with drug commercialization. Additionally, their scientific board holds the impressive levels of experience and knowledge necessary to properly guide the firm and solve its most pressing issues.

Financing the Future
For any biotech company looking to build a pipeline and create the next important pharmaceutical, having strong financing in place is critical. You need a sufficient runway to see a pharmaceutical solution from concept through the regulatory process and into the market.
Unicycive recently announced in March 2024 a $50 million private placement, providing significant funding to support its clinical development pipeline. The financing, led by new investors Octagon Capital and Great Point Partners, LLC, with participation from other institutional investors, ensures that Unicycive can advance its lead drug, Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), through the approval process and prepare for a commercial launch.
In addition to this $50 million, Unicycive has access to up to $100 million in committed capital through future warrant exercises. The warrants are linked to significant milestones in the regulatory process, with Tranche A warrants exercisable upon FDA approval for OLC, Tranche B exercisable upon TDAPA approval, and Tranche C exercisable after four quarters of commercial sales. This additional funding commitment underscores the investors' confidence in Unicycive's programs and their potential for success.
Proceeds from the private placement will also support Unicycive's NDA submission with the FDA for approval of OLC for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis. This funding positions Unicycive to navigate regulatory hurdles and successfully bring its innovative treatments to market.
With this robust financial backing, Unicycive is well-equipped to advance both its lead program, OLC, and its secondary program, UNI-494, focused on acute kidney injury, toward clinical and commercial success.

Oxylanthanum Carbonate: Innovative Approach to Phosphate Control
Treating End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) demands effective phosphate control to avoid complications such as heart failure. Current solutions often require burdensome and expensive regimens with large pills. Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC) is positioning itself as a novel and elegant solution to this problem.
OLC is an advanced phosphate-binding agent using proprietary nanoparticle technology, designed to treat hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on dialysis. The nanoparticle technology increases the surface area of active drugs, allowing more medicine in smaller pills that can be swallowed whole, reducing the pill burden.
Unicycive Therapeutics completed a clinical trial with 32 healthy volunteers to study OLC. This study showed that OLC was minimally absorbed into the systemic circulation and was safe and well-tolerated at doses up to 6000 mg/day. The results indicated that OLC significantly reduced urine phosphate excretion and increased fecal phosphate excretion at doses at and above 3000 mg/day, demonstrating its potential effectiveness in managing hyperphosphatemia.
OLC* is a novel investigational phosphate binder for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. Its mechanism of action involves binding to dietary phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, which is then excreted via the feces, leading to a reduction in serum phosphorus levels. The key features of OLC include:
-
Enhanced surface area due to nanoparticle technology
-
Lower molecular weight
-
Immediate-release tablets
-
Smaller pills
-
Swallowed whole (not chewed)
*OLC is an unapproved investigational new drug being developed under the FDA's 505(b)(2) regulatory procedure. If approved, it will share the same product label and prescribing information as the reference-listed drug Fosrenol (lanthanum carbonate), with the advantage of smaller pills that can be swallowed whole with water, not chewed.
Source: Company Documents
Unicycive has a strong patent portfolio protecting OLC, with a family of U.S. patents and corresponding patents in Canada, Europe, Japan, China, Australia, and other countries.
Both the U.S. and foreign patents were filed in 2011, with a statutory expiration in 2031. This patent protection offers Unicycive the potential to deliver significant shareholder value for years to come.
UNI-494: Focused on Mitochondria
Unicycive believes mitochondria play a critical role in Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) due to their dual role as the primary source of cellular energy and key regulators of cell death. Mitochondrial damage in AKI can lead to sublethal and lethal injury of kidney tubules, resulting in a loss of renal function.
Disruption in mitochondrial dynamics and compromised membrane integrity can trigger the release of apoptogenic factors, mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pores, loss of membrane potential, energetic failure, and reactive oxygen species production, leading to cell injury and death.
.webp?width=1500&height=722&name=featured-banners-Unicycive-2%20(1).webp)
Currently, there are no FDA-approved medicines to treat AKI. Damage to the kidney is often irreversible, requiring renal transplant or lifelong dialysis.
UNI-494 is a novel chemical entity targeting mitochondrial dysfunction, with the potential to address AKI's unmet medical needs. UNI-494 is in preclinical development for the treatment of AKI, derived from a marketed agent, nicorandil, and designed to improve mitochondrial function by blocking the opening of MPTP pores in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
-
UNI-494 is a prodrug of Nicorandil with improved properties and an extended patent life.
-
Nicorandil has compelling scientific data supporting the development of UNI-494 for Acute Kidney Disease (AKI) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).
-
Unicycive is focusing on AKI as the initial indication, with CKD as a possible follow-on program.
Unicycive Therapeutics is executing its go-to-market strategy for UNI-494, aiming to advance the drug through preclinical studies and regulatory filing to initiate clinical trials. The company has achieved key milestones, including completing preclinical studies, manufacturing drug supplies for clinical studies, and obtaining MHRA approval to initiate the first human trial. The Phase 1 clinical trial was initiated in Q1 2023, and Unicycive is working toward an FDA IND filing for a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study in 2025.
Unique attributes for regulatory approval of UNI-494:
-
Leverage preclinical and clinical data from Nicorandil outside the United States with a comparability package.
-
Design a more homogenous AKI patient population, including patients with contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), where Nicorandil has been shown to be efficacious.
Milestones & Catalysts for UNI-494 for Acute Kidney Injury:
Orphan Drug Designation granted for the prevention of Delayed Graft Function in kidney transplant patients

Video Library: NASDAQ Amplify Issuer Spotlight and Interview with Doug Jermasek
In NASDAQ Amplify Issuer Spotlight, Dr. Shalabh Gupta, founder and CEO of Unicycive Therapeutics, discusses the company's mission to develop treatments for kidney disease. Kidney disease affects 14% of U.S. adults and leads to complications like heart disease and bone fractures.
Dr. Gupta explains the challenges with current phosphate-lowering drugs - high pill burden, large pill size, and bad taste leading to poor compliance. As highlighted in this NASDAQ Amplify Issuer Spotlight, Unicycive is on a mission to improve the lives of such patients.
The interview with Doug Jermasek, EVP at Unicycive Therapeutics, focuses on medication adherence challenges for dialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia (high phosphate levels). Five hundred thousand dialysis patients in the U.S. need phosphate binders, but 75% don't achieve recommended phosphate levels, mainly due to the high pill burden. Phosphate binders must be taken three times daily with meals for life. The most prescribed binder requires 9-12 large pills daily.
High pill burden leads to non-adherence, which increases mortality risk. Hyperphosphatemia is a "silent killer" - patients don't feel its effects, so they may stop treatment, like stopping antibiotics once infection symptoms resolve. Studies show that these patients' median daily pill burden is 19 pills, half being phosphate binders. Massive pill volume makes tracking adherence difficult—Unicycive aims to improve adherence with a far less burdensome regimen.

A Large Addressable Market
Chronic Kidney Disease is a very significant issue across much of the world. According to Research and Markets, the global end stage renal disease (ESRD) market size is anticipated to reach over $260 billion by 2030, leading to a very robust Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 12.9% from 2022 to 2030. An increasing number of patients suffering from kidney failure, the rapid increase in the volume of hospitals & urgent care centers, and growing hospital admission rates are thought to be the catalysts behind this growth. Both of the company's programs have the potential to participate in this market.
Unicycive Therapeutics' lead program, Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), is designed to address hyperphosphatemia, a condition characterized by elevated phosphate levels in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis. The global hyperphosphatemia treatment market was estimated to be $2.5 billion in 2021. With a projected Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.3% between 2021 and 2028, the current market may be close to $3.0 billion, highlighting a significant opportunity for Unicycive's OLC.
Go-to-Market Strategy and Partnerships:
Unicycive's go-to-market strategy involves strategic partnerships to expand the reach and accelerate the commercialization of Oxylanthanum Carbonate. In Q4 2022, Unicycive entered an agreement with Lee's Pharmaceutical (HK) Limited, granting exclusive rights to develop, market, and commercialize OLC in Mainland China, Hong Kong, and certain Asian markets. This agreement provides Unicycive with a strong local partner with deep domain expertise, unlocking significant growth potential in one of the largest markets for kidney disease patients.

Deftly Navigating the Regulatory Maze
As with any company focusing on creating solutions for health issues, navigating the regulatory maze is critical for success. Unicycive has demonstrated a strong ability to do so.
OXYLANTHANUM CARBONATE:
The company's lead program, Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), is on a significantly de-risked regulatory pathway for commercialization. In a Type C meeting with the FDA in Q4 2021, the company received clear guidance to file a New Drug Application (NDA). Unicycive is pursuing a 505(b)(2) pathway for U.S. approval, leveraging pre-clinical and clinical data from the approved lanthanum-containing phosphate binder, Fosrenol. This pathway allows the company to skip certain clinical trial phases, streamlining the approval process.
The company conducted a bioequivalence (B.E.) study comparing urinary phosphorus changes between OLC and Fosrenol in healthy volunteers and a 6-month oral toxicity study in mice. The results showed that OLC met all endpoints, indicating its safety and efficacy. Additionally, the company completed standard studies on manufacturability and commercial supply readiness. Unicycive completed the B.E. study with volunteers in Q4 2022. The company's NDA was submitted in August 2024 and accepted in November 2024. Unicycive projects a PDUFA Date for FDA Approval of June 28, 2025, and a commercial launch anticipated in H2 2025.

Pursuing a parallel commercial model to address the concentrated nephrology market, including partnerships with pharmaceutical companies, license and/or distribution agreements with dialysis organizations, and outsourced contract sales organizations.
*OLC is an unapproved investigational new drug being developed under FDA’s 505(b)(2 ) regulatory procedure. If approved, OLC will share the same product label and prescribing information as the approved reference-listed drug (RLD) Fosrenol, with the advantage of smaller, immediate-release tablets that are swallowed whole and not chewed.
UNI-494
Unicycive's other program, UNI-494, is also positioned well for a shorter approval timeframe. As a novel pro-drug of a marketed agent, nicorandil, it uses an established legacy with known MOAs and demonstrated safety and efficacy with its use of nitric oxide. It uses a known and safe chemical linker, and its controlled release of the active drug in plasma may enable once-daily QD dosing.
To expedite the process, the clinical development of UNI-494 began in the United Kingdom (U.K.). The company filed a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the U.K. to initiate a Phase I healthy volunteer study. In addition, Unicycive filed an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA. A Method of Use patent was granted by the USPTO, and successful Phase 1 study results were published in October 2024. The company anticipates that UNI-494 will advance to a Phase 2 Proof of Concept (POC) Study in 2025.
While nothing is guaranteed during this process, Unicycive Therapeutics is taking intelligent steps that could lead to commercialization in a shorter timeframe compared to many other companies in the industry.
