It's infuriating that, when companies have spent considerable money developing time-release mechanisms for opioids, and then add-on mechanisms to deter abuse of those products, that no one (other than QRx Pharma) has worked on opioid/RD. I'm baffled as to why not--but I think it boils down to--there is added risk and uncertainty when building a combo drug, even when both components are well-known (e.g. MoxDuo). When one of the components is relatively unknown, and there is no oral version suitable for chronic use with even an active IND, they back off.
2)Sparky--Yes, you have advocated the Fragile X route. The problem has been, and remains, the probability that a more trophic Ampakine would have a better chance of altering Fragile X structural deficits. Seaside Therapeutics is well aware of Cortex and vice versa, but they have two platforms going into Phase III or Phase II in Fragile X and autism, and their ability to take on another has been financially limited to sponsoring academic muscarinic research. They don't have the money to give Cortex what they need for a clinical stage program. Afraxis is focused on PAK1, Roche and Novartis on mGluR5. The players currently willing to pursue Fragile X already have their mechanistic 'horses.' If Cortex gets money for one of their other programs, Fragile X might be a good place to invest it in terms of getting their preclinical work done inhouse.
