Reason for dip
On Tuesday, ANGN announced the topline results for the phase-3 trial of Angion’s ANG-3777. The company said that the results did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference from the placebo on the primary end-point in the population of deceased donor kidney transplant patients who were at the risk of developing DGF. ANG-3777 showed a minor difference in eGFR of 53.3mL/min/1.73m2 versus 50.4mL/min/1.73m2 for placebo. Besides, it also demonstrated an inconsistent benefit on key secondary endpoints. Based on the above-discussed data, it was not expected that there existed sufficient evidence to support an indication in the studied DGF population.
