About XRTX

XORTX Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company. The firm is engaged in developing medications that improve the quality of life and health of individuals with gout and other important diseases. The company has three clinically advanced products in development: its lead program, XRx-026 program for the treatment of gout; XRx-008 program for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD); and XRx-101 for acute kidney and other acute organ injury associated with respiratory virus infections. In addition, the Company is developing XRx-225, a pre-clinical stage program for Type II diabetic nephropathy. The company is working to advance products that target aberrant purine metabolism and xanthine oxidase to decrease or inhibit the production of uric acid. The XRx-026 program is designed to decrease the chronically high serum uric acid concentration in the blood (SUA) by inhibiting the production of uric acid by the xanthine oxidase enzyme by administering a xanthine oxidase inhibitor-oxypurinol.
