WAG #2 Can't find any currently marketed Kappa opioid receptor agonist "peripheral neuropathic pain," but one is being developed. Could TTNP be working with these guys...

More groundless, baseless speculation:

BioCorRX makes an naltrexone implant which is NOT FDA approved,and usage has been limited to a few clinics. However, they've recently announced an R&D program to seek FDA approval of the implant. http://www.biocorrx.com/news-media/press-releases/detail/57/biocorrx-launches-rd-initiative-to-pursue-fda-approval-for

Possibly, Alkermes sees this as a threat and may want to partner with Titan to get their own implant?

I don't see Titan funding this on their own...
