Medincell’s Partner Teva Provides New Update on Pivotal Clinical Phase 3 of Investigational Olanzapine Long-Acting Injectable (LAI)

  • No PDSS* observed after completion of c.99% of the targeted injections for submission
  • Confirmation that full phase 3 safety results are on track for H2 2024
  • Positive phase 3 efficacy results have already been announced in May 2024 (read the full PR)

MONTPELLIER, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Teva Pharmaceuticals, a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), announced during the 22nd Annual Global Healthcare Conference held yesterday that c.99% of the targeted injections for submission have been performed as of today (replay available here). Teva also confirmed that the full submission safety results are expected to be available in H2 24.

Olanzapine LAI is an investigational once-monthly subcutaneous long-acting injection of the atypical antipsychotic Olanzapine. It has the potential to be the first long-acting Olanzapine with a favorable safety profile as other LAIs of Olanzapine have been associated with a FDA black box warning for PDSS that limits their use.

Teva is fully responsible for leading the development and commercialization of Olanzapine LAI. Medincell may receive up to $117 million in development and commercial milestones for mdc-TJK, in addition to royalties on all net sales of both products.

*PDSS = Post injection Delirium/Sedation Syndrome
