Evotec (EVO) said early Wednesday it will join the NURTuRE-AKI consortium to establish a patient cohort for acute kidney injury.
The consortium focuses on adult and pediatric cardiac surgery patients who are at high risk of developing acute kidney injury, as well as patients undergoing progression to chronic kidney disease.
Evotec expects the initiative to support the discovery of treatments for acute kidney injury patients based on a molecular level of understanding of the disease.
