Unicycive Therapeutics Inc. has unveiled a corporate presentation on its kidney disease drug pipeline, focusing on oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) for treating hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis. The New Drug Application for OLC has been resubmitted, with a new PDUFA date anticipated in the first half of 2026. OLC aims to provide a smaller, swallowable tablet compared to Fosrenol. The company is also developing UNI-494 for acute kidney injury, and recent reimbursement developments have broadened the market potential for OLC, estimated at over $1 billion in the US.
