What is the name of the new renin inhibitor compound from Vitae pharmaceuticals?

Vitae Pharma is going to be going into clinical trials this year with a new renin inhibitor compound for hypertension. I need to find out the name of this compound. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get the name? Been looking online for 3 hours now with no success. Sources would be appreciated!

1. I'm not sure of the name they're using for the compound but here's a reference to an article which talks about it. http://www.genengnews.com/news/bnitem.aspx?name=43919044 Consider doing a search for "renin inhibitors" for a name that might help you recall it.
2. The new renin inhibitor is called Aliskiren (brand name Tekturna in the US, Rasilez in the UK and elsewhere) Google search the name and it will bring up a bunch of info. Good places to get specific drug information: rxlist.com ..... drugs.com ..... FDA.gov...
