Welcome to our dedicated page for Pacira Biosciences news (Ticker: PCRX), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Pacira Biosciences stock.
Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCRX) is a pioneering company dedicated to advancing non-opioid pain management and regenerative health solutions. Headquartered in Tampa, Florida, Pacira is committed to providing innovative treatments that minimize the reliance on opioids for pain relief, thereby redefining the role of opioids as a rescue therapy only.
Pacira has three primary commercialized products: EXPAREL® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension), ZILRETTA® (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release injectable suspension), and ioveraº®. EXPAREL, launched in 2012, is a long-acting local analgesic used for postsurgical pain management, offering significant reductions in opioid consumption and cumulative pain scores. ZILRETTA, approved in 2017, is an extended-release intra-articular injection aimed at managing osteoarthritis knee pain, providing extended pain relief without repeated administration. ioveraº is a novel handheld device that delivers precise, controlled doses of cold temperature to targeted nerves, offering immediate, drug-free pain relief.
The company’s advanced DepoFoam® delivery platform encapsulates drugs in a multivesicular liposome, releasing them over extended periods without altering their molecular structure. This technology underpins the efficacy of Pacira’s flagship product, EXPAREL, which has been pivotal in reducing opioid use and enhancing postoperative recovery.
Pacira continues to innovate with ongoing clinical developments and strategic initiatives. Recently, the company reported preliminary unaudited total revenue of $675.0 million for the fiscal year 2023. In 2024, Pacira plans to launch EXPAREL for two key lower extremity nerve blocks and anticipates the rollout of the NOPAIN Act in 2025, which will expand patient access to opioid-sparing pain management solutions.
Pacira’s commitment to developing non-opioid treatments is further demonstrated by its recent achievements in securing FDA and European Medicines Agency designations for PCRX-201, a gene therapy product candidate for osteoarthritis. The company’s focus on long-term growth and operational excellence remains steadfast under the leadership of CEO Frank D. Lee.
