A B2i Digital Featured Company, Unicycive Therapeutics (Nasdaq: $UNCY) (https://lnkd.in/eg9U-h4f), announced several presentations at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2024, highlighting the company’s progress in advancing two novel therapies, oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) and UNI-494. These therapies aim to improve outcomes for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI). Highlights from the ASN Kidney Week 2024 Presentations include: - OLC Late-Breaker Presentation: OLC enabled effective control of serum phosphate in >90% of patients with CKD on dialysis during the maintenance phase of the pivotal trial. - UNI-494 Phase I Study Results: Demonstrated safety and tolerability, with plans to meet with the FDA to discuss Phase II trial design. Preclinical Study Findings: The synergistic effects of OLC and Tenapanor on reducing urinary phosphate excretion by targeting different absorption pathways were shown. - Intravenous UNI-494 Study: Data indicated that a single IV dose can halt or reverse the progression of acute kidney injury (AKI) in a preclinical model. Dr. Shalabh Gupta, MD, CEO of Unicycive, noted, “Kidney Week was extremely productive for us featuring a late-breaking presentation on our OLC pivotal trial, and our numerous data presentations were well received by the medical community. We were excited to present our positive pivotal clinical trial data demonstrating that OLC enabled adequate control of serum phosphate in more than 90% of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis who entered the maintenance phase of the trial. OLC preclinical data was also presented at the conference and recently published. This data supports our recently submitted New Drug Application as we seek U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to bring OLC to the millions of CKD patients with hyperphosphatemia on dialysis. Earlier this month, we announced the successful completion of our UNI-494 Phase 1 study and were pleased to present the safety and tolerability data at ASN. We plan to request a meeting with the FDA before the end of the year to review these Phase 1 results and a potential Phase 2 study design.” For more details on Unicycive’s presentation at Kidney Week, visit: https://lnkd.in/eMpNbqbK B2i Digital is pleased to acknowledge the continued progress of Dr. Shalabh Gupta and his management team, including CFO John Townsend, EVP Doug Jermasek, EVP Pramod Gupta, Dr. Atul Khare, Ph.D., M.B.A. and Dr. Guru Reddy, in their mission to address unmet needs in kidney disease treatment.

A B2i Digital Featured Company, Evoke Pharma (Nasdaq: EVOK), and EVERSANA, Evoke’s commercialization partner, announced statistically significant findings from real-world data on GIMOTI® (metoclopramide) nasal spray. The study, presented at the 2024 American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Annual Scientific Meeting, demonstrates the potential of Gimoti as a supportive care option for patients taking GLP-1 receptor agonists. GLP-1 medications, commonly prescribed for type 2 diabetes, can exacerbate gastrointestinal issues, including gastroparesis, due to delayed gastric emptying. The GIMOTI study compared patients treated with nasal metoclopramide (NMCP) to those on oral metoclopramide (OMCP) and focused on those with prior GLP-1 prescriptions. Evoke’s Key Study Findings Presented at ACG 2024 (within a 6-month index period): - 91% reduction in all-cause emergency department visits (p=0.001) for patients using Gimoti versus oral metoclopramide - 89% reduction in outpatient hospital visits (p=0.032) - 41% fewer all-cause office visits (p=0.027) - Significant reductions observed in diabetic gastroparesis-related healthcare utilization The submission received the Presidential Poster Award, placing it among the top 5% of data accepted to the conference, and was selected as the Outstanding Research Award in the Stomach Category. Evoke’s CEO, Matt D'Onofrio, commented: “This data is particularly encouraging given the rising number of patients using GLP-1 agonists for diabetes, many of whom also suffer from gastroparesis. Our goal is to provide data regarding Gimoti as supportive care for diabetic gastroparesis for those also on GLP-1 agonists. This study, combined with the earlier real-world data presented at key conferences, reinforces GIMOTI’s potential to improve outcomes for patients and reduce the overall financial burden on the healthcare system.” To see the full details, please visit Evoke Pharma's Press Release. https://lnkd.in/ePuqdd9d The results presented at ACG 2024 build on earlier data showing GIMOTI’s ability to significantly reduce healthcare resource utlization (HRU) for patients with diabetic gastroparesis. Similar results were previously presented at Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2024 and ACG 2023, reinforcing the value of GIMOTI compared to oral metoclopramide. Diabetic gastroparesis is a GI disorder affecting millions of patients worldwide, in which the stomach takes too long to empty its contents, resulting in severe GI symptoms and systemic complications. The gastric delay caused by gastroparesis can compromise the absorption of orally administered medications. Metoclopramide remains the only drug currently approved in the United States to treat gastroparesis. Before FDA approval to commercially market GIMOTI, metoclopramide was only available in oral and injectable formulations.
