Our Principal Product Candidates


We are also developing product candidates that combine a type of acid inhibitor, a proton pump inhibitor, or PPI, with an NSAID (our PN program). These product candidates are intended to provide management of pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, with fewer gastrointestinal complications compared to an NSAID taken alone.


In August 2006, we entered into an exclusive global collaboration and license agreement with AstraZeneca AB, or AstraZeneca, to co-develop and commercialize VIMOVO™ (formerly referred to as PN 400), the brand name for a proprietary fixed dose combinations of the PPI esomeprazole magnesium with the NSAID naproxen in a single tablet using our PN formulation technology, which agreement was amended in September 2007 and October 2008. We began the Phase 3 program in September 2007. As part of the program, we conducted two Phase 3 pivotal trials of VIMOVO in patients who are at risk for developing NSAID-associated gastric ulcers, the primary endpoint for which was the reduction in endoscopic gastric ulcers. In October 2008, the FDA informed us that it was conducting an internal review of the acceptability of using endoscopic gastric ulcers as a primary endpoint in clinical trials. In late January 2009, the FDA informed us that it had completed its internal discussions and that there was no change to previous agreements that gastric ulcer incidence was an acceptable primary endpoint for POZEN’s clinical programs
