Ensysce Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENSCW) is a clinical-stage company specializing in developing safer prescription drugs utilizing transformative chemistry to enhance drug safety. The company's TAAP(TM) prodrug of oxycodone, PF614, has shown positive results in clinical studies and provides a longer half-life, benefiting severe pain treatment. Ensysce's technology platforms, TAAP(TM) and MPAR(R), aim to provide tamper-proof treatment options to minimize drug abuse and overdose risks, with a focus on reducing medication abuse deaths.
Ensysce Biosciences (NASDAQ:ENSC) announced receiving FDA guidance regarding its lead product, PF614, indicating that pursuing an acute pain indication is advisable. The FDA's non-binding guidance suggests conducting two clinical trials comparing PF614 with a placebo and an immediate-release opioid like oxycodone. This strategy may reduce the development timeline and costs, compared to a chronic pain focus. Ensysce plans to advance PF614 for acute pain while continuing chronic pain development, aiming to complete human abuse potential studies and initiate Phase 3 trials in the upcoming year.
Ensysce Biosciences has announced positive topline results from a human abuse potential (HAP) study of PF614, an innovative oxycodone product designed to deter abuse. The study demonstrated that PF614 resulted in significantly lower peak 'drug liking' compared to traditional oxycodone. This is crucial for its FDA approval process, aligning with the agency's guidance on evaluating abuse potential. The company is committed to advancing this product into Phase 3 studies, addressing a significant need for safer analgesics in chronic pain management.
Ensysce Biosciences (NASDAQ:ENSC) has initiated the PF614-104 study, focusing on the drug's abuse deterrent properties against oxycodone. The trial tests the oral abuse potential of PF614 in non-dependent recreational opioid users, comparing it to oxycodone and placebo. The study's primary outcome is 'Drug Liking,' essential for future commercialization and labeling. Ensysce's TAAP® technology ensures PF614 is inert without trypsin exposure, potentially reducing abuse risks. Preliminary data is expected in early 2023, marking a significant step towards safer opioid alternatives.
Ensysce Biosciences has initiated the PF614-104 trial, a study to evaluate the oral abuse potential of its drug PF614 compared to oxycodone. Conducted by Dr. Brad Vince, this randomized trial aims to demonstrate that PF614 has less drug liking potential, crucial for its abuse deterrent labeling. This follows the company's previous Human Abuse Potential study, reflecting significant progress in PF614's development. With PF614 exhibiting bioequivalence to OxyContin and a longer half-life for sustained pain relief, results are expected in early 2023.
