About BELLUS Health (www.bellushealth.com)
BELLUS Health is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company
developing novel therapeutics for the treatment of RCC and other
cough hypersensitivity indications. The Company's product
candidate, BLU-5937, has successfully completed a Phase 2b trial in
RCC. BELLUS is planning a Phase 3 program, which is expected to
begin in the second half of 2022.
Chronic cough is a cough lasting longer than eight weeks and
when the cause of chronic cough cannot be identified or the cough
persists despite treatment of all identified associated causes, the
condition is referred to as RCC. It is estimated that there are
approximately 9 million patients in the United States suffering
from RCC. RCC is associated with significant adverse physical,
social, and psychosocial effects on health and quality of life.
Currently, there is no specific therapy approved for RCC and
treatment options are limited.
The Company is exploring the potential use of BLU-5937 in other
patient populations experiencing cough hypersensitivity as well as
other P2X3-related hypersensitization conditions.
