(Nasdaq: MLYS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines to target hypertension, chronic kidney disease (CKD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and other diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone, today announced that data from the pivotal Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of lorundrostat for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension (uHTN) or resistant hypertension (rHTN) will be presented in a late-breaking clinical trials session at the 34th European Meeting on Hypertension and Cardiovascular Protection (ESH 2025), which will be held in Milan at the MICO Congress Center, on May 23-26, 2025. Details for the Late-Breaking Clinical Trial Abstract: Abstract Title:Phase 3 Efficacy and Safety of a Novel Aldosterone Synthase Inhibitor in Patients with Uncontrolled and Treatment-Resistant Hypertension: Launch-HTN StudyPresenter:Manish Saxena MBBS, Hypertension Specialist from Barts Health NHS Trust and William Harvey Heart Centre, Queen Mary University LondonSession Date/Time:Saturday, May 24th, at 10:00-11:00am CESTSession Title:Late Breakers 1Session Location:Aqua 1 About Lorundrostat Lorundrostat is a proprietary, orally administered, highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor being developed for the treatment of uHTN and rHTN as well as CKD. Lorundrostat was designed to reduce aldosterone levels by inhibiting CYP11B2, the enzyme responsible for its production. Lorundrostat has 374-fold selectivity for aldosterone-synthase inhibition versus cortisol-synthase inhibition in vitro, an observed half-life of 10-12 hours and demonstrated approximately a 70% reduction in plasma aldosterone concentration in hypertensive subjects. In a Phase 2, proof-of-concept trial (Target-HTN) in uncontrolled or resistant hypertensive subjects, once-daily lorundrostat demonstrated clinically meaningful blood pressure reduction in both automated office blood pressure measurement and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Adverse events observed were a modest increase in serum potassium, decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate, urinary tract infection and hypertension with one serious adverse event possibly related to study drug being hyponatremia.
