KIT-302 is a Treatment for Hypertension and Osteoarthritis Pain. KIT-302 is a fixed dose combination drug comprised of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)celecoxib, and the well-known antihypertensive agent, amlodipine besylate. Celecoxib monotherapy often leads to hypertension, which if uncontrolled, can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. KIT-302 is designed to provide a solution for physicians who avoid prescribing NSAIDs for osteoarthritis pain due to their hypertensive side effects. There is currently no single drug for the treatment of pain and hypertension, so, if approved, KIT-302 could be a unique product in the multibillion-dollar osteoarthritis market.
