Ocedurenone, formerly known as KBP-5074,[1] is a nonsteroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist that is being developed to treat hypertension in patients with chronic kidney disease with less risk of hyperkalemia than existing treatments.[2][3] In 2023, KPB Biosciences entered in talks to sell the drug to Novo Nordisk for USD$1.3 billion. It is a small molecule drug administered orally and is in a Phase III trial that is scheduled to complete in 2024.[4][5]
