Trevena, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRVN), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has scheduled a meeting of the Anesthetic and Analgesic Drug Products Advisory Committee on October 11, 2018 in Silver Spring, MD, to discuss the safety and efficacy of oliceridine injection for the management of moderate to severe acute pain.

The Company‘s New Drug Application (NDA) submission for oliceridine was accepted for review by the FDA on January 2, 2018. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target date for completion of review by FDA of November 2, 2018 remains unchanged.

“We look forward to the Advisory Committee meeting on October 11 and the opportunity to present our perspectives on the oliceridine clinical data and its potential role in treating moderate to severe acute pain,” said Maxine Gowen, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain committed to working closely with the FDA towards achieving the goal of ensuring hospital patients who require an IV opioid to manage their moderate to severe acute pain have access to effective and safe treatment options.”

Members of the Anesthetic and Analgesic Drug Products Advisory Committee will review and evaluate available data regarding safety and effectiveness and make appropriate recommendations. All final decisions will be made by the FDA.

About Oliceridine Injection

Oliceridine injection is an investigational next generation IV analgesic for the management of moderate to severe acute pain in the hospital and similar settings and has been granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Oliceridine injection was specifically designed to improve conventional opioid pharmacology to deliver the pain-reducing potential of an opioid but with fewer opioid-related adverse effects. Oliceridine is an investigational product and has not been approved by the FDA or any other regulatory agency. If approved, the Company expects oliceridine to be a Schedule II controlled substance.
