Retension Pharmaceuticals

Falls Church, VA

Retension Pharmaceuticals is developing RTN-001, a differentiated, tissue-targeted PDE5 inhibitor that has been optimized for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension. RTN-001 has been evaluated in over 265 subjects across 9 clinical trials. In these studies, RTN-001 was well tolerated and demonstrated a sustained and clinically significant impact on central and brachial blood pressure in patients with uncontrolled hypertension. RTN-001 is a second generation PDE5i that preferentially distributes to cardiovascular tissues, where it acts to mediate a sustained and clinically significant impact on central and brachial blood pressure in patients with uncontrolled hypertension.
