OLC Could Become The Preferred Drug For Renal Dialysis Patients. Unicycive Therapeutics is developing drugs to treat kidney diseases. The lead drug candidate, OLC (oxylanthanum carbonate), is a phosphate binding agent for the treatment of high phosphate levels in renal dialysis patients. We believe OLC will show advantages over the current phosphate binding drugs and has potential to be the best drug in a category with over $1 billion in US sales. Our price target is $6 per share.

We Believe OLC Will Show Advantages Over Other Phosphate Binders. Patients receiving renal dialysis typically have elevated phosphorus levels in their blood. There are six phosphate binding drugs available to reduce high phosphate levels, however the number of pills required leads to poor compliance. Notably, OLC was formulated to reduce the pill burden and help patients lower their phosphate levels to recommended ranges.
