Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZYNE) is at the forefront of developing next-generation synthetic cannabinoid therapeutics designed for transdermal delivery. This innovative approach is aimed at patients with significant unmet medical needs, including refractory epilepsy, osteoarthritis, Fragile X syndrome (FXS), fibromyalgia, and peripheral neuropathic pain. The company’s mission is to enhance the lives of individuals suffering from these severe health conditions through advanced therapeutics.
Zynerba's development pipeline features patent-protected transdermal cannabinoid products, notably the CBD gel ZYN002 and the THC pro-drug patch ZYN001. ZYN002, marketed as Zygel™, is the first and only pharmaceutically manufactured, synthetic cannabidiol, designed as a permeation-enhanced gel for transdermal delivery. Unlike many cannabinoid products, Zygel contains no THC, eliminating the euphoric effects associated with cannabis. Zygel is currently under evaluation in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for FXS (the RECONNECT Trial) and has shown promising results in a Phase 2 trial for 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (the INSPIRE Trial).
Recent developments highlight Zynerba’s potential impact. On August 14, 2023, Harmony Biosciences Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: HRMY) announced a definitive agreement to acquire Zynerba, emphasizing the strategic fit between the two companies. Harmony’s acquisition aims to advance the development and delivery of transformative treatments for rare neuropsychiatric disorders. The transaction terms include an upfront cash payment of $1.1059 per share, totaling $60 million, and the issuance of a contingent value right (CVR) per share, which could lead to additional payments up to $140 million.
Zynerba’s lead candidate, Zygel, has been granted orphan drug designation by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for treating FXS and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. Additionally, Zygel has received FDA Fast Track designation for FXS behavioral symptoms treatment. These designations highlight Zynerba’s commitment to addressing conditions that currently lack FDA-approved therapies.
Zynerba Pharmaceuticals continues to push the boundaries of cannabinoid science, aiming to provide new, effective treatment options for patients not adequately served by current therapies. The company’s focus on rigorous clinical trials and regulatory compliance positions it as a leader in the field of synthetic transdermal cannabinoid therapeutics.
