Fendilin (FENDILINE)

Phase 2 active Small molecule Under review

Fendilin (generic name: FENDILINE) is a fendiline drug. It is currently in Phase 2 development for Ischemic heart disease.

Fendiline works by binding to the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor, which helps regulate calcium levels in the body.

Fendilin is a small molecule with the synonyms Fendilina, Fendiline, and Fendiline. It has been studied in relation to post-stroke pneumonia in a real-world retrospective cohort study, comparing its effects to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, Calcium Channel Blockers, and Angiotensin Receptor Blockers.

Likelihood of approval
13.3% vs 15.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2031–2034
Steps remaining: Phase 3 → NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: Medium
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 2 → approval rate +15.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 2 drugs reach approval ~15.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • Cardiovascular Phase 3 risk -2.0pp
    Modern cardiovascular outcome trials are large + long; many fail to beat aggressive standard-of-care.
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2031–2034
EMA EU 2032–2035 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2032–2035 +0.7 yr
Health Canada CA 2032–2036 +0.9 yr
TGA AU 2032–2036 +1.2 yr
PMDA JP 2032–2036 +1.5 yr
NMPA CN 2033–2037 +2.3 yr

CDSCO IN 2032–2037 +1.8 yr
ANVISA BR 2033–2037 +2.3 yr

Hover any row for the lag rationale. Lag estimates are reduced when the drug has FDA Breakthrough or EMA PRIME designation (sponsors file globally in parallel).

Estimate based on the BIO/Informa industry phase transition rates plus per-drug modifiers for therapeutic area, sponsor type, FDA designations, mechanism, and trial design. Per-jurisdiction lags from Tufts CSDD international approval studies. Not investment, clinical or regulatory advice. Methodology: /methodology#likelihood.

Mechanism of action

Think of it like a thermostat in your home. The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor acts like a thermostat, helping to keep calcium levels in the body stable. Fendiline helps this thermostat work better, which can help treat conditions like ischemic heart disease.
