Dutch kidney specialist AM-Pharma has raised 116 million euros ($133 million) from a European syndicate of new and existing investors.

The firm is working on a treatment for acute kidney injury (AKI), using an innovative recombinant human Alkaline Phosphatase therapeutic (recAP) platform.

The new money will be used to conduct a Phase III trial of recAP in 1,400 patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). The therapy was awarded Fast Track designation by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2016.
