FDA clears IND for Eloxx's exaluren in Phase 2 trial targeting genetic kidney disease ADPKD

The FDA has approved Eloxx Pharmaceuticals' Investigational New Drug application for exaluren to treat nonsense-mutation autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). This clearance allows Eloxx to start its global Phase 2 EXPRESS trial in the U.S., enrolling about 60 patients to test exaluren against placebo over 52 weeks, focusing on kidney volume changes. Results are expected by the first half of 2029. The FDA indicated that significant effects on kidney volume could lead to Breakthrough Therapy Designation and accelerated approval, highlighting exaluren's potential as a novel treatment for this genetic kidney condition with no current targeted therapy.

Eloxx Pharmaceuticals' FDA clearance for exaluren provides context for health-sector stocks. For readers following health stocks, 95 of 150 US health-sector stocks rose and 47 fell on Pluang as of Oct 29, 2026 18:11 WIB.
