2-Dose Cp Model
An enabling aspect of our Phase 2 effort will be use of two improved models, including our novel 2-dose CP model in mice developed in Phase 1 that for the 1st time, reproduces the AKI and CKD pattern in humans treated with CP. Given the potential advantages a peptide agonist vs. RNLS protein, including reduced potential for cardiovascular side effects and immunogenicity; ease of manufacturing and stronger intellectual property, we will confirm and extend that a peptide agonist is equal or better than RNLS, and select the best clinical development candidate. Successful results will advance the understanding of CP-induced kidney injury and set the stage and define the lead drug for IND enabling studies and clinical development for a RNLS agonist to significantly enhance use of CP therapy. …show more content…
Select lead agonist. Renal CP toxicity reduction will be a major driver for lead selection (50% or greater protective effects on CP renal toxicity using serum creatinine, inulin based GFR, and CP-AKI injury score) selecting a peptide if it is equal or better than rRNLS. Milestone (M1): Use the improved models including ours, to compare the ED50 dose of rRNLS and 2 RNLS peptides for ability to prevent CP caused AKI and limit progression to CKD; M2: Compare rRNLS and 2 RNLS peptides in multiple dosing studies to decrease CP toxicity in our improved model and assess serum chemistries, hematology, clinical signs, body and organ weights, behavioral/physiological observations (Irwin tests), acoustic startle response, and gross autopsy observations. M3: Determine pharmacokinetics on effective agonists with longer T1/2 and greater AUC desirable. M4: Select

    It has no effect on SCr. The elevation of BUN might be due to renal injury or other mechanisms. Liver synthesizes urea and during liver injury low BUN is encountered. Therefore, the real mechanism of increasing BUN in setting of liver injury is not clearly identified. However, other studies showed that aluminum chloride increases both BUN and SCr [11,13, 18, 20]. In present study aluminum chloride was used for 28 days while the other studies use aluminum for longer period of time. This might explain why there was no change in serum creatinine in the present study. Recently, it was found that aluminum chloride administered for 40 days increases BUN and SCr and decreases urine volume and creatinine clearance [20]. This was accompanied by increased renal OS and inflammation. This is in agreement with our findings that aluminum decreases creatinine clearance. Another study showed that aluminum chloride used for eight weeks in rats causes elevation of BUN and SCr [11]. We have found that honey has reno-protective effect in acute blood loss, CCI4 toxicity and lead toxicity [42,43,47]. It also improved renal function in normal individuals which has been suggested due to increase nitric oxide and decreasing prostaglandins…

    Wilson’s causes the body to retain copper that has been taken in through an individual’s diet, rather than the liver turning it into to bile to be disposed of. The liver becomes more and more damaged as the copper accumulates, and when it has no other place to be stored within the liver, it gets released into the bloodstream, carrying the copper throughout the body, onto other organs. This is how the accumulation of copper not only affects the liver, but manages to affect the nervous system, eyes, as well as the kidneys. In a specific case study, (Goyal, S. ed) a 26 year old male had been suffering from accumulation of copper since he was two months old. He had suffered from speaking disabilities as well as difficulties with walking and sitting…

    American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week, is the world’s leading conference in nephrology. I will choose ASN Kidney week to attend annually of all conferences, and for good reason. Kidney Week is where I expect to find all the ideas shaping the field of nephrology. By attending I hope to learn new ways of approaching clinical problems in nephrology and gain insight into ways of contributing more effectively to the field. The most cutting-edge ideas and research in nephrology is more than enough incentive to attend ASN Kidney Week.…
