Tricida, Inc. is a privately-held, clinical stage, biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of non-absorbed oral drug therapies. Tricida's lead investigational drug candidate, TRC101, represents a first-in-class approach for the treatment of metabolic acidosis, a common complication of CKD that can result in accelerated progression of kidney disease, progressive muscle breakdown, exacerbation of bone disease, and an increased rate of mortality. In January 2016, the FDA accepted Tricida's Investigational New Drug (IND) application for TRC101. The company has since successfully completed a Phase 1/2 double-blind, placebo-controlled study in which the safety, tolerability and efficacy of TRC101 were evaluated in subjects with CKD and low serum bicarbonate. Tricida is currently conducting a Phase 3 study of TRC101 for the treatment of metabolic acidosis associated with CKD designed to serve the basis for the submission of a U.S. New Drug Application for TRC101 under the FDA's accelerated approval pathway. Tricida is led by a management team with an accomplished and proven track record in discovering and developing new therapeutics, with extensive experience in building successful companies around strong science and unmet medical needs. The Company is backed by world-class venture capital firms. Tricida's shared culture of teamwork, camaraderie and empowerment is evident in the dedication and focus our employees demonstrate, with a commitment to the ultimate goal of improving and prolonging the lives of people living with CKD, and bringing critically needed new therapies to patients.
