Industry

Akebia Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company, which engages in the development and commercialization of therapeutics for patients with kidney diseases. The company is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts and currently employs 426 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2014-03-20. The firm is focused on producing medicines for people living with kidney disease. Its lead product candidate, vadadustat, is an oral therapy in development for the treatment of anemia due to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Vadadustat is an oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF-PHI), designed to mimic the physiologic effect of altitude on oxygen availability. In addition, it has a commercial product, Auryxia (ferric citrate), which is marketed for two indications in the United States: the control of serum phosphorus levels in adult patients with dialysis-dependent (DD)-CKD or the hyperphosphatemia indication, and the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA), in adult patients with non-dialysis dependent (NDD)-CKD or the IDA indication. Its ferric citrate is also approved and marketed in Japan as an oral treatment for the improvement of hyperphosphatemia in patients with CKD.
