Dr. Ravi Thadhani, internationally recognized nephrology leader, joins Judo Bio Advisory Board

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Judo Bio, a biotechnology company pioneering oligonucleotide medicines delivery to the kidney, today announced the presentation of data in non-human primates showing the first demonstration of a functional effect of its megalin-STRIKER on disease-related solute excretion in the kidney, consistent with target gene silencing by an siRNA therapeutic. The data were presented at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025 taking place from November 5-9 in Houston, TX. 

Megalin-STRIKERs are ligand-siRNA conjugates that bind to megalin receptors on proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) in the kidney, resulting in cell-specific uptake of oligonucleotide and subsequent gene silencing of the target mRNA. The data presented at ASN demonstrate selective distribution into the PTECs and an increase in the excretion of disease-related solute from the kidney, based on measurement in urine. These data provide translational evidence for developing these siRNA therapeutics for a range of systemic and renal diseases.

“We are excited to share the progress we’ve made in advancing our STRIKE platform, culminating in an important translational milestone — the demonstration of biological change consistent with target gene silencing by an siRNA therapeutic delivered to the kidney,” said Alfica Sehgal, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Judo Bio. “We have taken a deliberate, stepwise approach to building a robust and modular platform that enables broad therapeutic application and advancement of our first megalin-STRIKER into the clinic in the near future.”

The data presented by Judo Bio at ASN showed preclinical translation of megalin-STRIKERs from rodents to non-human primates, and from target gene silencing to functional pharmacodynamic effect. Key findings include:

  • Megalin-STRIKERs distributed specifically to PTECs in the kidney across both species.
  • In rodents, single administration of megalin-STRIKERs achieved approximately 70% target gene knockdown sustained for up to 2 months.
  • In non-human primates, single administration of megalin-STRIKERs significantly increased the amount of excreted disease-related solute that lasted for 2 months post dose, based on measurement in urine.
  • No adverse effects were observed in both mice and non-human primates, including no change in in hematology and serum chemistry parameters or elevations in markers of kidney injury.

Judo Bio’s ASN poster presentation is available here on the company’s website.

Jade Biosciences Presents New Data Demonstrating a Favorable Preclinical Safety Profile of JADE101 and a Translational Analysis of APRIL Mediated Biomarker Responses at the American Society of Nephrology Kidney Week 2025

SAN FRANCISCO and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jade Biosciences, Inc. (“the Company” or “Jade”), (Nasdaq: JBIO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing best-in-class therapies for autoimmune diseases, today presented two posters for JADE101, its investigational anti-A PRoliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) monoclonal antibody for the treatment of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025.

JADE101 is designed to selectively inhibit APRIL, a key driver of pathogenic IgA production in IgAN, a progressive autoimmune disease that frequently leads to end-stage kidney disease over a patient’s lifetime. Jade has engineered JADE101 with properties intended to capture the full efficacy of APRIL pathway inhibition while enabling patient-friendly subcutaneous dosing, supported by a differentiated pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile demonstrated in non-human primates (NHPs). JADE101 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 healthy volunteer trial, with interim data expected in the first half of 2026 that is anticipated to define the dose and dose interval for future studies in IgAN patients.

“We believe the selective anti-APRIL class will represent the foundational therapeutic approach for treatment of IgAN, and JADE101 has been specifically engineered to deliver the full potential of this mechanism,” said Andrew King, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer and Head of R&D at Jade Biosciences. “These new preclinical data in NHPs demonstrate that JADE101 is highly selective, is well tolerated at toxicological doses, and is not broadly immunosuppressive. Additionally, our translational modeling builds further confidence that biomarker responses observed in healthy volunteers are expected to translate into meaningful outcomes for patients with IgAN. Interim biomarker data from our ongoing Phase 1 healthy volunteer study are anticipated to define the dose and dosing interval selection for JADE101, with the goal of supporting rapid advancement into IgAN patient trials with a potentially best-in-class therapy.”

Nonclinical Safety Profile of JADE101 (Poster #SA-PO0255)

New preclinical safety data highlight JADE101’s favorable safety profile and support its potential as a selective, disease-modifying treatment with low risk of toxicity:

  • JADE101 was well tolerated in NHPs at all doses tested preclinically, including the highest dose evaluated in GLP toxicology studies, which was established as the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL). These results provide wide safety margins that support the first-in-human doses being evaluated in the ongoing Phase 1 healthy volunteer trial.
  • Across studies, JADE101 showed no off-target binding in a panel of more than 6,000 human proteins, no human tissue cross-reactivity, and no cytokine release in human whole blood assays.
  • In NHPs, JADE101 treatment resulted in reversible reductions in serum immunoglobulins consistent with its mechanism of action, including IgA and IgM reductions of approximately 55–68% and 62–75%, respectively, and a more modest IgG reduction of 35–48%, all of which returned toward baseline following JADE101 clearance.
  • Despite reductions in circulating immunoglobulins, JADE101-treated NHPs generated antibody responses to a test immunization (KLH) that were comparable to untreated controls, consistent with the preserved vaccination response observed in healthy volunteers following administration of a previous anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody.
  • JADE101 administration in NHPs did not impact serum concentrations of BAFF or inflammatory cytokines, resulted in no histological changes in tissues, and had no effect on circulating immune cell populations, including B, T, or NK cells – supporting its potential as a well-tolerated treatment, devoid of broad immune suppression.

Translational Modeling of Biomarker Responses to APRIL Inhibition (Poster #SA-PO0272)

A second presentation described a translational assessment of the consistency of biomarker responses to APRIL inhibition across NHPs, healthy volunteers and IgAN patients, and the associations between these biomarkers and clinical responses in IgAN. Biomarker responses to JADE101 in the ongoing healthy volunteer study are anticipated to define dose and dose interval selection for future clinical trials in IgAN patients:

  • Analyses demonstrated that in vitro APRIL binding affinity is predictive of in vivo IgA-lowering potency across NHP and human data sets, supporting that high APRIL binding affinity results in potent IgA reduction in vivo in NHPs and humans.
  • Clinical observations from healthy volunteers further demonstrate that high APRIL binding affinity is a key determinant of the magnitude and duration of free APRIL and IgA reduction at a given anti-APRIL dose level.
  • Pharmacokinetic and free APRIL suppression profiles of anti-APRIL monoclonal antibodies were consistent between healthy volunteers and patients with IgAN, supporting the use of healthy volunteer PK and biomarker results for dose selection in IgAN patients.
  • Trial level analyses indicate the kinetics and magnitude of IgA reduction is highly consistent between healthy volunteers and IgAN patients (r = 0.93), and that the reduction of Gd-IgA1 measured in IgAN patients is highly consistent with the reductions in total IgA (r = 0.96). Furthermore, the early IgA reduction observed in IgAN patients is predictive of subsequent proteinuria reduction (r = 0.89).
  • The largest reductions in proteinuria and the highest rates of clinical remission (proteinuria < 0.3 g/day) in IgAN patients were observed with the highest levels of APRIL suppression.

These analyses suggest that pharmacokinetic and biomarker responses observed in healthy volunteers are informative of anticipated therapeutic responses in IgAN patients. The analysis also highlights that the depth and duration of APRIL suppression can be linked to anticipated reductions in total IgA, Gd-IgA1, and proteinuria that are ultimately associated with preserving kidney function and delivering disease-modifying clinical outcomes for patients with IgAN. Based on JADE101’s differentiated NHP pharmacokinetic profile, the Company anticipates the potential for convenient, infrequent, subcutaneous dosing.

About JADE101 

JADE101 is a novel, fully human monoclonal antibody that selectively blocks APRIL with ultra-high binding affinity and is engineered for half-life extension. Preclinical studies demonstrated potent, sustained IgA suppression after a single dose in non-human primates, with a serum half-life of approximately 27 days. JADE101 was designed to avoid formation of high molecular weight immune complexes, with the goal of supporting predictable pharmacokinetics and reduced immunogenicity risk. Its differentiated pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile supports the potential for infrequent and convenient subcutaneous dosing, an important consideration for a condition often diagnosed in young adulthood and potentially requiring life-long treatment. 

A Phase 1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating single ascending subcutaneous doses of JADE101 in healthy adult volunteers is ongoing. The Company expects data from the Phase 1 trial to define dose and dosing interval selection for later-stage studies, based on biomarker responses associated with optimal clinical activity in IgAN patients. More information on the JADE101 Phase 1 trial is available on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Novo Nordisk will not increase its proposal to acquire Metsera, Inc. 

Bagsværd, Denmark, 8 November 2025 – Novo Nordisk today confirms that it does not intend to make an increased offer to acquire Metsera. 

On 30 October 2025, Novo Nordisk announced the submission of an unsolicited proposal to acquire Metsera, Inc. (Metsera) which was declared superior by Metsera’s board of directors.  

On 4 November 2025, Novo Nordisk confirmed that it had submitted an updated unsolicited proposal to acquire Metsera price of 62.20 USD per share in cash (equal to an approximate aggregated equity value of 7.2 billion USD or approximate enterprise value of 6.7 billion USD) and contingent value rights (CVRs) for up to 24.00 USD per share in cash (or an approximate aggregated value of up to 2.8 billion USD) based on the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones which was declared superior by Metsera’s board of directors.  

On 6 November 2025, Novo Nordisk submitted a revised unsolicited proposal at a price of 65.60 USD per share in cash (equal to an approximate aggregated equity value of 7.6 billion USD or approximate enterprise value of 7.1 billion USD) and contingent value rights (CVRs) for up to 20.65 USD per share in cash (or an approximate aggregated value of up to 2.4 billion USD) based on the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones.

We believe that the structure of our potential merger agreement is compliant with antitrust laws.

Vera Therapeutics Submits Biologics License Application to U.S. FDA through Accelerated Approval Program for Atacicept for the Treatment of Adults with IgA Nephropathy

Vera Therapeutics Submits Biologics License Application to U.S. FDA through Accelerated Approval Program for Atacicept for the Treatment of Adults with IgA Nephropathy




Vera Therapeutics Submits Biologics License Application to U.S. FDA through Accelerated Approval Program for Atacicept for the Treatment of Adults with IgA Nephropathy

  • Atacicept received FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of IgAN
  • ORIGIN Phase 3 trial met its primary endpoint at the prespecified interim analysis of proteinuria reduction with 46% reduction from baseline and 42% reduction vs placebo at week 36 (p<0.0001)
  • If approved, atacicept would be the first B cell modulator targeting both BAFF and APRIL for IgAN; potential FDA approval in 2026

BRISBANE, Calif., Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vera Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: VERA), a late clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing transformative treatments for patients with serious immunological diseases, today announced it has submitted a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through the Accelerated Approval Program for atacicept for the treatment of adults with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN).

The BLA submission for atacicept is supported by data from a prespecified interim analysis of the ORIGIN 3 trial, which met the primary endpoint of reduction in proteinuria at week 36. Participants treated with atacicept achieved a 46% reduction from baseline in proteinuria as measured by 24-hour urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR), with a statistically significant and clinically meaningful 42% reduction in UPCR compared to placebo (p<0.0001) at week 36. The safety profile of atacicept across the ORIGIN program appears favorable, and comparable to placebo. Results of the interim analysis were presented as a late-breaking oral presentation at the opening plenary session of the American Society of Nephrology Kidney Week meeting and published in a manuscript in the New England Journal of Medicine on November 6.

The submission of our first BLA marks an inflection point in our journey as a company, bringing us closer to delivering a breakthrough treatment that could change the standard of care for patients with IgAN and other autoimmune kidney diseases,” said Marshall Fordyce, M.D., Founder and CEO of Vera Therapeutics.Atacicept has the potential to address the unmet medical need in IgAN as the first dual BAFF/APRIL inhibitor. We look forward to working with the U.S. regulatory authorities to bring this treatment to patients. We are energized about the path forward and thankful to the patients, caregivers, HCPs, and the Vera Therapeutics team, whose contributions made this submission possible.”

IgAN is a serious and progressive autoimmune disease of the kidney, for which there remains a high unmet need for new disease-modifying treatments that target the upstream source of the disease. In at least 50% of patients, IgAN can lead to end-stage kidney disease or kidney failure, which has considerable morbidity and impact on patients’ lives. Atacicept is being developed as an at-home self-administered subcutaneous once-weekly injection that inhibits B-cell Activating Factor (BAFF) and A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL), cytokines that drive B-cell production of autoantibodies associated with IgAN and potentially other autoimmune kidney diseases.

ORIGIN 3 (NCT04716231) is an ongoing global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial of 431 adults with IgA nephropathy. Participants were randomized 1:1 to atacicept 150 mg, self-administered at home via once weekly subcutaneous injection, or placebo. The primary efficacy endpoint of the prespecified 36-week interim analysis was the change in 24-hour UPCR compared to placebo. The trial continues in a placebo-controlled blinded manner to evaluate the change in kidney function over two years as measured by eGFR and is expected to complete in 2027. For more information about ORIGIN 3, please visit http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

About Atacicept
Atacicept is an investigational recombinant fusion protein that contains the soluble transmembrane activator and calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand interactor (TACI) receptor that binds to the cytokines B-cell activating factor (BAFF) and A PRoliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL). These cytokines are members of the tumor necrosis factor family that promote B-cell survival and autoantibody production associated with IgAN, lupus nephritis, and other autoimmune kidney diseases. 

About the Atacicept Clinical Program
The ORIGIN Phase 2b clinical trial of atacicept in IgAN met its primary and key secondary endpoints, with statistically significant and clinically meaningful proteinuria reductions and stabilization of eGFR versus placebo through 36 weeks. The safety profile during the randomized period was comparable between atacicept and placebo. Through 96 weeks, atacicept demonstrated further improvements in Gd-IgA1, hematuria, and proteinuria, as well as stabilization of eGFR reflecting a profile consistent with that of the general population without IgAN. 

The ORIGIN Phase 3 trial met the primary endpoint with a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in proteinuria at week 36. Across the ORIGIN program in IgAN, the safety profile of atacicept appears favorable, and comparable to placebo. 

Atacicept has received FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of IgAN, which reflects the FDA’s determination that, based on an assessment of data from the ORIGIN Phase 2b clinical trial, atacicept may demonstrate substantial improvement on a clinically significant endpoint over available therapies for patients with IgAN. Vera Therapeutics believes atacicept is positioned for best-in-class potential, targeting B cells to reduce autoantibodies and having been administered to more than 1,500 patients in clinical trials across different disease areas. 

The ORIGIN Extend study provides ORIGIN study participants with extended access to atacicept until its potential commercial availability in their region and captures longer-term safety and efficacy data. Atacicept is also being evaluated in expanded IgAN populations, anti-PLA2R positive primary membranous nephropathy, and anti-nephrin positive focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and minimal change disease (MCD) patients in the PIONEER trial.

About Vera Therapeutics
Vera Therapeutics is a late clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing treatments for serious immunological diseases. Vera Therapeutics’ mission is to advance treatments that target the source of disease in order to change the standard of care for patients. Vera Therapeutics’ lead product candidate is atacicept, a fusion protein self-administered at home as a subcutaneous once weekly injection that blocks both BAFF and APRIL, which stimulate B cells to produce autoantibodies contributing to certain autoimmune diseases, including IgAN and lupus nephritis. Beyond IgAN, Vera Therapeutics is evaluating additional diseases where the reduction of autoantibodies by atacicept may prove clinically meaningful. In addition, Vera Therapeutics holds an exclusive license agreement with Stanford University for a novel, next generation fusion protein targeting BAFF and APRIL, known as VT-109, with wide therapeutic potential across the spectrum of B-cell–mediated diseases. Vera Therapeutics is also developing MAU868, a monoclonal antibody designed to neutralize infection with BK virus, which can have devastating consequences in kidney transplant recipients. Vera Therapeutics retains all global developmental and commercial rights to atacicept, VT-109, and MAU868. For more information, please visit www.veratx.com.

Data for Lorundrostat in Chronic Kidney Disease and Hypertension Presented at American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025

Data for Lorundrostat in Chronic Kidney Disease and Hypertension Presented at American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025




Data for Lorundrostat in Chronic Kidney Disease and Hypertension Presented at American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025

– Late-breaking presentation of Explore-CKD trial at ASN Kidney Week –

– Pivotal Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial featured in the “Best of JAMA and NEJM” session –

RADNOR, Pa., Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mineralys Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: MLYS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapies to target hypertension and related comorbidities such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and other diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone, today announced that clinical data for lorundrostat were presented at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025. Findings included a late-breaking oral presentation of the Phase 2 Explore-CKD trial and recognition of the pivotal Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial in the “Best of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM)” session.

“The presentations at ASN Kidney Week demonstrated the breadth and strength of lorundrostat’s clinical program. As previously announced, the compelling results from multiple trials in this program have positioned us well for the planned filing of a New Drug Application to the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2025 or the first quarter of 2026,” said Jon Congleton, Chief Executive Officer of Mineralys Therapeutics. “In Explore-CKD, lorundrostat reduced both blood pressure and albuminuria in participants with chronic kidney disease. We are pleased that the significant and consistent blood pressure reduction previously reported with lorundrostat in the Launch-HTN trial was selected for the “Best of JAMA” presentation at ASN’s Kidney Week 2025. With consistent benefits across blood pressure and kidney outcomes, lorundrostat is uniquely positioned to address the growing burden of cardio-renal-metabolic disease.”

Late-breaking presentation on the Explore-CKD trial (NCT06150924) of lorundrostat 25 mg once daily added to standard-of-care therapy, including sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in blood pressure and albuminuria in participants with uncontrolled hypertension and CKD at four weeks of treatment. The trial met its primary endpoint, showing a reduction of 9.3 mmHg in automated office systolic blood pressure (AOSBP), and a placebo adjusted reduction of 7.5 mmHg (p-value=0.0024) at week four. Lorundrostat also achieved a reduction in spot urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), a marker of kidney protection, of 25.6% placebo-adjusted reduction (p=0.0015) at week four.

In Explore-CKD, lorundrostat demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile. Serious adverse events occurred in two participants (3%) during lorundrostat treatment and none on placebo. Discontinuations due to treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in two participants (3%) during the lorundrostat treatment period and one participant (2%) during the placebo treatment period.

“These results are important because they show that lorundrostat, when added to standard-of-care therapy, reduced both blood pressure and proteinuria in patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease,” said Dr. Matthew Weir, Director of the Division of Nephrology at the University of Maryland Medical Center, Professor of Medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, and a scientific consultant to Mineralys Therapeutics. “The parallel reductions in systolic blood pressure and albuminuria underscore the potential of lorundrostat to improve cardio-renal outcomes in this high-risk population.”

In addition, the pivotal Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial was recognized in ASN’s “Best of JAMA and NEJM” session following publication earlier this year in JAMA. Lorundrostat demonstrated a statistically significant 16.9 mmHg absolute reduction in systolic blood pressure (SBP) at week 6 (9.1 mmHg placebo-adjusted, p<0.0001) and a 19 mmHg reduction in SBP at week 12 (11.6 mmHg placebo-adjusted, p<0.0001) in participants with uncontrolled and resistant hypertension, with a blood pressure-lowering effect observed as early as 2 weeks.

“Across trials, lorundrostat showed efficacy in diverse and difficult-to-treat patient groups, including those with confirmed uncontrolled and resistant hypertension, chronic kidney disease, obesity, and in Black or African American participants. Launch-HTN results demonstrated that lorundrostat lowers blood pressure with a persistent, clinically meaningful benefit a full 24-hours following administration,” said Dr. Manish Saxena, MBBS, Hypertension Specialist and Clinical Co-Director at William Harvey Heart Centre, Barts Health NHS Trust and QMUL. “Taken together with Advance-HTN and Explore-CKD, these results show lorundrostat has broad clinical potential across some of the most challenging patient populations.”

Lorundrostat continues to be evaluated in the ongoing Transform-HTN open-label extension study, which is assessing long-term safety and durability of response. The Company also completed enrollment in Explore-OSA, the first trial to evaluate lorundrostat in participants with hypertension and moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Lorundrostat is the only ASI being studied to address both apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and nighttime systolic blood pressure in this population, with data anticipated in the first quarter of 2026.

About Explore-CKD

The Explore-CKD trial (NCT06150924) was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period, two-sequence (2×2) crossover trial. This Phase 2 trial was designed to evaluate BP reduction and safety of 25 mg QD lorundrostat when added to background treatment with an ACEi or ARB and an SGLT2 inhibitor for the treatment of hypertension in subjects with CKD subjects with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73m2 and albuminuria (UACR of 200-5,000 mg/g). The primary efficacy endpoint of the trial was change from baseline in systolic BP at week four in the active versus placebo treatment period. Exploratory endpoints included change from baseline in UACR and eGFR at week four in the active versus placebo treatment period.

About Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

CKD, which is characterized by the gradual loss of kidney function, is estimated to affect more than 10% of the global population and is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 1-in-7 (approximately 37 million) U.S. adults have CKD, and approximately 22 million people in the United States are living with both hypertension and CKD. The relationship between these conditions is tightly linked: sustained hypertension may contribute to impaired kidney function, and progressive decrease in kidney function may lead to worsening BP control. When CKD is present in patients with hypertension, the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality rises significantly.

Emerging evidence points to dysregulated aldosterone as a key driver of both diseases. Excess aldosterone promotes sodium retention, vascular inflammation, and fibrosis, contributing to both uncontrolled BP and kidney injury. Despite the availability of existing therapies, a significant proportion of patients remain uncontrolled or undertreated. Early detection and targeted interventions that address underlying mechanisms, such as aldosterone dysregulation, may offer the potential to slow CKD progression, reduce cardiovascular risk, and improve long-term outcomes. Without effective management, CKD can advance to kidney failure, requiring dialysis or transplantation.

About Launch-HTN

Launch-HTN (NCT06153693) was a global, randomized Phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of adults whose blood pressure remained uncontrolled despite being on two to five antihypertensive medications. Participants were assigned to one of three groups: placebo; lorundrostat 50 mg once daily; or lorundrostat 50 mg once daily with the option to increase to 100 mg at week six. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in systolic blood pressure at six weeks versus placebo, measured by automated office blood pressure monitoring.

About Hypertension

Having sustained, elevated blood pressure (or hypertension) (BP) increases the risk of heart disease, heart attack and stroke, which are leading causes of death in the United States. In 2022, more than 685,000 deaths in the United States included hypertension as a primary or contributing cause. Hypertension and related health issues resulted in an estimated annual economic burden of about $219 billion in the United States in 2019.

Less than 50% of hypertension patients achieve their BP goal with currently available medications. Dysregulated aldosterone levels are a key factor in driving hypertension in approximately 30% of all hypertensive patients.

About Lorundrostat

Lorundrostat is a proprietary, orally administered, highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor being developed for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension (uHTN) or resistant hypertension (rHTN), as well as CKD and OSA. 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 a 40-70% reduction in plasma aldosterone concentration in hypertensive participants.

The Company has now completed four successful clinical trials of lorundrostat supporting the efficacy and safety profile while also validating aldosterone as an integral therapeutic target in uHTN and rHTN. The Company has completed two pivotal, registrational trials, including the Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial and Phase 2 Advance-HTN trial, which support the robust, durable and clinically meaningful reductions in systolic BP by lorundrostat. Lorundrostat was well tolerated in both trials with a favorable safety profile.

About Mineralys

Mineralys Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines to target hypertension and related comorbidities such as CKD, OSA and other diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone. Its initial product candidate, lorundrostat, is a proprietary, orally administered, highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor.

AUSTEDO® (deutetrabenazine) tablets and AUSTEDO XR® (deutetrabenazine) extended-release tablets Demonstrate Positive Real-world Impact, with Patients Reporting Improvement in Involuntary Movements and Activities of Daily Living

  • In a new cohort of 27 adults from the IMPACT-TD Registry, up to 77% of participants reported improvements in aspects of their lives impacted by tardive dyskinesia (TD) while taking AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR
  • Most (85%) participants taking AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR in conjunction with their mental health medications reported that their mental health condition remained stable or improved
  • Teva is committed to truly understanding and empowering individuals living with TD to help improve their TD and regain their independence

PARSIPPANY, N.J., and TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Teva Pharmaceuticals, a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), today announced the presentation of new data from the ongoing, real-world IMPACT-TD Registry. The findings demonstrate that treatment with AUSTEDO (deutetrabenazine) tablets or AUSTEDO XR (deutetrabenazine) extended-release tablets for tardive dyskinesia (TD) led to reductions in the severity of involuntary movements and improvements in patient-reported quality of life. The data were presented at the 2025 Neuroscience Education Institute Fall Congress, taking place November 6 – 9, 2025 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

“The silent struggle of tardive dyskinesia, with its relentless, involuntary movements, can deprive patients of their quality of life and independence—real-world findings are so critical to inform how we innovate and improve the everyday lives of individuals living with this disease,” said Stacy Finkbeiner, Senior Medical Director, Movement Disorders & Psychiatry at Teva. “These data articulate patient experience and further validate clinical research showing how AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR can help people living with tardive dyskinesia improve their symptoms while maintaining their mental health, something we care deeply about in our mission at Teva to improve the lives of patients.”

The interim analysis of the IMPACT-TD Registry, a Phase 4 study, evaluated 27 adults with TD treated with AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR after a three-month period using IMPACT-TD PRO, a 30-question scale measuring patient-reported impact across 5 key areas. The study included patients with common comorbid psychiatric disorders, such as bipolar disorder (41%), anxiety disorder (37%), depression (26%), and schizophrenia (19%), reflecting a diverse, real-world patient population.

Key results revealed:

  • Patient-reported meaningful improvement after three months on AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR across several areas, including speech/communication (77%), eating (75%), psychosocial impact (65%), activities of daily living (59%), and sleep/pain (50%).
  • At three months, the total motor score on the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) showed a mean decrease of -2.9, indicating a notable reduction in the severity of uncontrolled movements consistent with what was previously seen in pivotal trials.
  • Most (85%) participants taking AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR in conjunction with their mental health medications reported that their underlying mental health condition remained stable or improved based on the Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) scale.

While Part A of the IMPACT-TD Registry demonstrated the broad impact TD has on individuals beyond physical movements, these initial findings from Part B reflect patient-reported improvements in everyday tasks like speaking, eating, and other activities of daily living as a result of movement reduction with AUSTEDO or AUSTEDO XR.

About Tardive Dyskinesia (TD)
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a highly debilitating, chronic movement disorder that affects one in four people who take certain mental health treatments and is characterized by uncontrollable, abnormal, and repetitive movements of the face, torso, and/or other body parts, which may be disruptive and negatively impact individuals.1,2,3

About AUSTEDO XR Extended-Release Tablets and AUSTEDO Tablets
AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are the first vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in adults for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia and for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington’s disease. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. AUSTEDO XR is the once-daily formulation of AUSTEDO.

INDICATIONS AND USAGE
AUSTEDO XR (deutetrabenazine) extended-release tablets and AUSTEDO (deutetrabenazine) tablets are indicated in adults for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington’s disease and for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION 

Depression and Suicidality in Patients with Huntington’s Disease: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO can increase the risk of depression and suicidal thoughts and behavior (suicidality) in patients with Huntington’s disease. Balance the risks of depression and suicidality with the clinical need for treatment of chorea. Closely monitor patients for the emergence or worsening of depression, suicidality, or unusual changes in behavior. Inform patients, their caregivers, and families of the risk of depression and suicidality and instruct them to report behaviors of concern promptly to the treating physician. Exercise caution when treating patients with a history of depression or prior suicide attempts or ideation. AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are contraindicated in patients who are suicidal, and in patients with untreated or inadequately treated depression. 

Contraindications: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are contraindicated in patients with Huntington’s disease who are suicidal, or have untreated or inadequately treated depression. AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are also contraindicated in: patients with hepatic impairment; patients taking reserpine or within 20 days of discontinuing reserpine; patients taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), or within 14 days of discontinuing MAOI therapy; and patients taking tetrabenazine or valbenazine.   

Clinical Worsening and Adverse Events in Patients with Huntington’s Disease: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may cause a worsening in mood, cognition, rigidity, and functional capacity. Prescribers should periodically re-evaluate the need for AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO in their patients by assessing the effect on chorea and possible adverse effects. 

QTc Prolongation: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may prolong the QT interval, but the degree of QT prolongation is not clinically significant when AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO is administered within the recommended dosage range. AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO should be avoided in patients with congenital long QT syndrome and in patients with a history of cardiac arrhythmias.  

Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), a potentially fatal symptom complex reported in association with drugs that reduce dopaminergic transmission, has been observed in patients receiving tetrabenazine. The risk may be increased by concomitant use of dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. The management of NMS should include immediate discontinuation of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO; intensive symptomatic treatment and medical monitoring; and treatment of any concomitant serious medical problems.   

Akathisia, Agitation, and Restlessness: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may increase the risk of akathisia, agitation, and restlessness. The risk of akathisia may be increased by concomitant use of dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. If a patient develops akathisia, the AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO dose should be reduced; some patients may require discontinuation of therapy. 

Parkinsonism: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may cause parkinsonism in patients with Huntington’s disease or tardive dyskinesia. Parkinsonism has also been observed with other VMAT2 inhibitors. The risk of parkinsonism may be increased by concomitant use of dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. If a patient develops parkinsonism, the AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO dose should be reduced; some patients may require discontinuation of therapy. 

Sedation and Somnolence: Sedation is a common dose-limiting adverse reaction of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO. Patients should not perform activities requiring mental alertness, such as operating a motor vehicle or hazardous machinery, until they are on a maintenance dose of AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO and know how the drug affects them. Concomitant use of alcohol or other sedating drugs may have additive effects and worsen sedation and somnolence. 

Hyperprolactinemia: Tetrabenazine elevates serum prolactin concentrations in humans. If there is a clinical suspicion of symptomatic hyperprolactinemia, appropriate laboratory testing should be done and consideration should be given to discontinuation of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO.   

Binding to Melanin-Containing Tissues: Deutetrabenazine or its metabolites bind to melanin-containing tissues and could accumulate in these tissues over time. Prescribers should be aware of the possibility of long-term ophthalmologic effects. 

Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions for AUSTEDO (>8% and greater than placebo) in a controlled clinical study in patients with Huntington’s disease were somnolence, diarrhea, dry mouth, and fatigue. The most common adverse reactions for AUSTEDO (4% and greater than placebo) in controlled clinical studies in patients with tardive dyskinesia were nasopharyngitis and insomnia.  Adverse reactions with AUSTEDO XR extended-release tablets are expected to be similar to AUSTEDO tablets.

Evaxion presents new immune data from phase 2 trial with AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01

Evaxion presents new immune data from phase 2 trial with AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01




Evaxion presents new immune data from phase 2 trial with AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01

  • New biomarker and immune data presented at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 2025 Annual Meeting
  • Following the recent presentation of unprecedented two-year clinical efficacy data from the phase 2 trial, the new data further adds to EVX-01’s already strong data package

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, November 7, 2025 – Evaxion A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) (“Evaxion”), a clinical-stage TechBio company specializing in developing AI-Immunology™ powered vaccines, announces new data exploring immune responses following treatment with AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01. The data was presented today in a poster session at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 2025 Annual Meeting taking place in National Harbor, Maryland.

Developed with Evaxion’s AI-Immunology™ platform, EVX-01 is designed to target multiple neoantigens – cancer unique proteins arising from mutations – and to induce a clinically relevant immune response. The new biomarker and immune data stems from the phase 2 trial evaluating EVX-01 in combination with MSD’s (Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA) anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced melanoma (skin cancer).

Longitudinal patient blood samples were collected before, during and after treatment to unravel treatment-induced changes in specific immune cell populations. More specifically, circulating T-cell subsets were characterized aiming at increasing the understanding of the immune responses induced by EVX-01. In subsets of analyzed patients, clinical responses were accompanied by a rapid and sustained induction of EVX-01-specific T-cells.

“We are pleased with the opportunity to present these exploratory translational data at a conference as important as SITC as we continue to add to EVX-01’s strong data package. Having presented the two-year clinical efficacy data from the phase 2 trial just last month at the European Society for Medical Oncology 2025 congress, we are encouraged by the interest in EVX-01 from the medical community”, says Birgitte Rønø, CSO and interim CEO of Evaxion.

KEYTRUDA® is a registered trademark of Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA.
