SAINT LAURENT, Quebec, April 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IntelGenx Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (the “Company” or “IntelGenx”) today announced that its co-developer, Chemo Research SL, through its agent and affiliate, Xiromed LLC (“Xiromed”), has received a Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) regarding its resubmitted abbreviated new drug application (“ANDA”) for Buprenorphine Buccal Film.
The CRL includes a request for additional Pharmaceutical Quality information. The FDA confirmed that no additional inspection of IntelGenx’s facility is required at this time.
“Our partner is committed to providing the FDA with a response to the CRL as soon as is practicable,” commented Dwight Gorham, IntelGenx’s CEO.
Buprenorphine Buccal Film, which incorporates IntelGenx’s VersaFilm® technology in a novel formulation, is a generic version of Belbuca®, an opioid that is used to manage chronic pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term treatment with an opioid, when other pain treatments are inadequate. Approved by the FDA in 2015, Belbuca® is applied to the oral or buccal mucosa every 12 hours and comes in seven strengths ranging from 0.075 mg to 0.9 mg.
