Cadila Healthcare Ltd (Zydus Cadila), on Wednesday, announced commencement of a Phase-II trial investigating Zyani1, an oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF-PHI), as a treatment for anaemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Zyani1 is an oral small molecule designed to increase natural production of haemoglobin and RBCs in anaemic patients. It has been shown to improve iron mobilisation and has the potential to reduce or eliminate the need for iron supplementation, said Pankaj Patel, Chairman and Managing Director, in a statement here.
