Ardelyx is a specialist biopharmaceutical company focused on developing drugs to improve the management of people with cardiorenal disease, including those on dialysis with chronic kidney disease (“CKD”) who have elevated serum phosphate or hyperphosphatemia.

In June 2020, Ardelyx filed a new drug application (NDA) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its lead product candidate Tenapanor, a supposedly world-class drug for controlling serum phosphorus in adult patients with CKD on dialysis. Ardelyx’s NDA was allegedly backed by successful Phase 3 studies which, according to the complaint, showed “improvements” over current treatments, underpinning tenapanor’s “clinical safety and effectiveness” and underpinning its “potential” as a “transformative” treatment.

However, after the market closed on July 19, 2021, Ardelyx announced that it had received a letter from the FDA stating that it had identified issues with the size and clinical relevance of the drug’s treatment effects.

As a result of this news, the company’s share price fell $ 9.71 per share, or nearly 74%, to close at $ 2.01 per share on July 20, 2021.
