The PODRAS™ platform technology is covered by patents pending with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office.
"We believe this significant advance in our abuse deterrence technology has the potential to positively differentiate Rexista™ from other abuse-deterrent technologies of which we are aware, and represents an important step toward helping patients manage their pain safely," said Dr. Isa Odidi, Chief Executive Officer of Intellipharmaceutics. "In addition to its use with oxycodone, the new technology is potentially applicable to a wide range of drug products that are intentionally or inadvertently abused and cause harm by overdose to those who ingest them."
Intellipharmaceutics' most advanced application of the PODRAS™ platform to date is to its Rexista™ product candidate (oxycodone hydrochloride extended-release tablet), which is designed to deter abuse by both physical interference and overdose.
Preclinical studies of Rexista™ suggest that, unlike other third-party abuse-deterrent oxycodone products, if more tablets than prescribed are deliberately or inadvertently swallowed, the amount of drug active released over 24 hours may be substantially less than expected, even possibly approaching zero. However, if the prescribed number of pills is swallowed, the drug release should be as expected.
