Prolonged analgesia from Bupisome and Bupigel formulations: From design and fabrication to improved stability

Rivka Cohen, Hiba Kanaan, Gilbert J. Grant, Yechezkel Barenholz
Journal of Controlled Release

Based on data from early animal studies, Probudur has indicated post-operative control for up to 96 hours, which is 24 hours longer than the leading product on the market. If we are able to demonstrate a successful Phase III clinical trial, we believe Probudur may represent the first long acting local anesthetic with an opioid sparing label.

Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics

“Here we show that the opioid diprenorphine, a compound with mu-opioid receptor antagonist activity and delta- and kappa-opioid receptor partial agonist activities, has rapid onset antidepressant-like activity in animal models.

There is pharmacological evidence of activity of MET enabled enkephalin in morphine-tolerant animals.

We believe the preliminary data from these early animal studies of NES100 support our belief that Envelta™ may have comparable preclinical activity to morphine in all animal pain models tested without the drug seeking, respiratory depression, and tolerance associated with opioids.

Currently, enkephalins are limited in their therapeutic potential by their pharmacokinetic profiles due to their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier to reach opioid receptors located in the central nervous system.
