Efficacy Results

- Launch-HTN Phase 3 trial met its primary endpoint:

  • Lorundrostat 50 mg dose achieved a 16.9 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure
  • 9.1 mmHg placebo-adjusted reduction (p<0.0001) at week 610

- At week 12:

  • 19.0 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure
  • 11.7 mmHg placebo-adjusted reduction (p<0.0001)10

- Advance-HTN Phase 2 trial also met its primary endpoint:

  • 7.9 mmHg placebo-adjusted reduction in 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring at week 1210

Study Details

  • Launch-HTN enrolled 1,083 patients with uncontrolled or resistant hypertension on 2-5 background medications15
  • Used automated office blood pressure measurement to reflect real-world clinical settings10
  • Patients remained on existing medications10

Safety Profile

  • Lorundrostat demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile in both pivotal trials10
  • Low rates of serious adverse events11
  • Hyperkalemia incidence was 1.1-1.5% in Launch-HTN and 5.3-7.4% in Advance-HTN11

Significance

  • Results suggest lorundrostat could be a "transformative new therapy" for approximately 15-20 million patients with uncontrolled hypertension in the US10
  • Data from three successful clinical trials now support lorundrostat's efficacy and safety10
  • Company believes the clinical profile supports potential FDA approval10

The positive Phase 3 results appear to strongly support Mineralys' plans to pursue FDA approval for lorundrostat as a novel treatment for uncontrolled and resistant hypertension. The company plans to present full results from the Advance-HTN trial at an upcoming medical conference on March 29, 202510.
