Gastrointestinal Biotech Company Renexxion Ireland Announces $100M Investment Commitment 

ROSCREA, Ireland, 12th April, 2022 /PRNewswire/ – Renexxion Ireland Ltd., a private 
biopharmaceutical company committed to delivering innovative drugs to patients with high unmet need 
in gastrointestinal (“GI”) disorders, announced today that it has entered into a share subscription 
agreement with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS (“GEM”), a Luxembourg-based private equity group for an 
investment of up to $100 Million to be made within 36 months after a public listing. In this tailored 
agreement, Renexxion Ireland will control the amount and timing of any drawdowns under this facility 
with no minimum subscription obligation and will issue shares of common stock. The proceeds from 
this capital investment will further the company’s lead program, naronapride and advance additional 
new programs. 

“The benefits of a funding commitment from a strong institutional investor like GEM are certainty and 
faster access to capital as a publicly listed company, critical elements for rapid growth,” said Peter 
Milner M.D., FACC, Chairman and CEO. 

Renexxion Ireland’s lead program is naronapride, a late-stage potential best-in-class drug candidate for 
unmet GI indications in the upper and lower GI tract. In scientific studies naronapride has been 
demonstrated to possess a unique combination of both serotonin 5HT4 receptor agonistic and 
dopamine D2 receptor antagonistic properties, both clinically validated targets. Naronapride is designed 
to be minimally absorbable, is locally active in gut lumen, and in clinical studies its side-effect profile is 
indistinguishable from placebo. Four positive Phase-II studies have been completed and naronapride is 
Phase-III ready in chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) and gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). 
Renexxion Ireland is currently advancing an additional research program in inflammatory bowel disease 
(“IBD”). 


About Renexxion: 
Renexxion Ireland Ltd. is an Irish privately held biopharmaceutical company committed to delivering 
new drugs to patients with GI disorders. Renexxion Ireland is currently collaborating with a leading 
European GI Licensing partner to advance naronapride through the later stages of development and 
commercialization in Greater Europe and certain other Australasian countries.  (For information:
