Produkte

Triferic

Triferic was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2015. Triferic is the only FDA-approved therapy indicated to replace iron and maintain hemoglobin in adult hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney disease. Triferic replaces the iron lost during hemodialysis treatments. Triferic delivers iron directly to transferrin which transported it to the bone marrow to make hemoglobin. Rockwell is actively marketing and commercializing Triferic in the U.S. hemodialysis market.[2][3][4] In February 2014, the Company completed its long-term safety study for Triferic.[5]

Calcitriol

Calcitriol (active vitamin D) generic is FDA approved for treating secondary hyperparathyroidism or hypocalcemia in hemodialysis patients.[6]

Hemodialysis Concentrates

Rockwell is a manufacturer of hemodialysis concentrates/dialysates for dialysis providers and distributors in the U.S. and globally. Hemodialysis concentrates remove toxins and replace critical nutrients in the dialysis patient’s bloodstream during hemodialysis. Rockwell has three U.S. manufacturing and distribution facilities.[6]

Iron (III) pyrophosphate

One of the main treatments that the company develops is iron (III) pyrophosphate, for iron supplementation, a key element in the formation of new red blood cells. It was licensed in 2011 for the delivery of iron supplementation for patients who suffer from anemic dialysis since the process accounts for treatment in around 90% of anemia patients.
