Cinclus Pharma AB is a clinical stage pharma company developing small molecules for the treatment of gastric acid related diseases. The company was founded in 2014 by Kjell Andersson, Peter Unge, Lennart Hansson, Mikael Dahlström, Urban Paulsson and Marek Poszepczynski. The members of Cinclus Pharma’s management team were key members of the project teams that developed AstraZeneca’s blockbuster drugs Losec and Nexium.
Cinclus Pharma’s drug candidate linaprazan glurate represents a novel class of drugs, Potassium Competitive Acid Blocker (P-CAB), and is a fast-acting regulator of intragastric pH by a different mechanism of action than PPIs. The beneficial safety and pharmacokinetic properties of linaprazan glurate have been documented in phase I studies. The Phase 2 study is ongoing in Europe and the US.
Linaprazan glurate is a prodrug of the P-CAB linaprazan, developed originally by AstraZeneca. Linaprazan has been evaluated in 23 phase I, and two phase II studies in a total of approximately 2,500 subjects. Linaprazan glurate is being developed for treatment of severe Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)and has the potential to heal esophageal injuries and alleviate GERD symptoms more effectively than current pharmaceutical therapies including PPIs.
Based on epidemiological data, the estimated size of this target population is 18.5 million and carries a Blockbuster potential (estimated sales exceeding USD 1 bn).
