Overview

Akebia has two FDA-approved products for CKD-related conditions. Vafseo® (vadadustat) was recently approved by the FDA for treating anemia due to CKD in patients on dialysis after an initial rejection. The company also markets Auryxia® (ferric citrate) for hyperphosphatemia and iron deficiency anemia. Akebia plans a Phase 3 trial to expand vadadustat’s label into non-dialysis CKD populations—a large potential market. Additional pipeline assets target acute kidney injury and retinopathy of prematurity
