Frequently asked questions about HEC53856

What is HEC53856?

HEC53856 is an investigational small molecule being developed by Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (ticker SBFM) for hematology indications. It is in Phase 1 clinical development for chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis, specifically for patients with renal anemia. It has been studied in two completed Phase 1 trials in China.

What is HEC53856 used for in chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis?

HEC53856 is being developed for the treatment of renal anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease, including those on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. It is intended for non-dialysis renal anemia as well. The drug remains investigational and has not been approved for any indication.

Who is developing HEC53856?

HEC53856 is being developed by Sunshine Biopharma Inc., which trades under the ticker SBFM. The company is advancing the small molecule through Phase 1 clinical development for chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis-related anemia.

What phase is HEC53856 in?

HEC53856 is in Phase 1 clinical development. Two Phase 1 trials have been completed: one in patients with end-stage renal disease receiving dialysis and one in patients with non-dialysis renal anemia. No later-phase trials are currently active.

What clinical trials is HEC53856 in?

HEC53856 has been evaluated in two completed Phase 1 trials. NCT04925674 studied the drug in patients with end-stage renal disease receiving dialysis, enrolling 60 participants in China. NCT04925661 studied it in patients with non-dialysis renal anemia, enrolling 40 participants in China. Both trials were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.
