"Eleven uses its proprietary technology platform to create first-of-a-kind protein therapeutics to address unmet needs for ophthalmic diseases. Proteins are able to modulate inflammatory cytokines, key targets in ocular disease that have been difficult to access with conventional therapeutic approaches. A significant untapped opportunity exists for protein therapeutics to address ophthalmic diseases, and Eleven is applying its advanced protein technology and expertise to develop innovative medicines for patients suffering from ocular diseases. Eleven`s team of industry veterans has deep experience in understanding protein science and biologic drug development, designing and conducting clinical trials and, most importantly, applying specific expertise in ophthalmic disease to create novel ocular therapeutics to treat unmet medical needs. Eleven has developed a proprietary pipeline of ophthalmic drug candidates derived from the company`s innovative AMP-Rx protein engineering technology. The company`s initial product candidates are focused on targeting inflammatory cytokines and key targets of ocular disease by blocking the cytokines and modulating the biological processes that drive ocular disease. Current pipeline opportunities include ocular surface diseases such as dry eye disease (DED) and allergic conjunctivitis (AC), and back of the eye diseases such as diabetic macular edema (DME) and uveitis. In addition, Eleven’s proprietary technology has been utilized to prolong the intravitreal half-life of our pipeline products. Beyond its internal drug development programs, Eleven works with collaborators, such as ThromboGenics, to apply its innovative protein therapeutic design capabilities to engineer and develop biotherapeutic products for additional therapeutic targets. EBI-005, Eleven`s lead product candidate, is a novel interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist in Phase 3 clinical development as one of the first topically administered proteins for the treatment of DED and AC, two inflammatory diseases at the surface of the eye."
AcelRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies for the treatment of moderate-to-severe acute pain. The Company`s product candidates, DSUVIA™ (known as ARX-04 outside of the United States) and ZALVISO®, are designed to deliver sufentanil, a strong opioid analgesic, via a non-invasive, sublingual formulation in medical supervised settings. DSUVIA is designed to deliver sublingual tablets containing 30 mcg sufentanil via a disposable, pre-filled, single-dose applicator. The Phase 3 clinical program has completed and assessed the investigational product in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acute pain in patients who had undergone surgery or who presented to an emergency room with trauma or injury. In clinical studies, DSUVIA demonstrated reductions in pain intensity as early as 15-to-30 minutes after the start of dosing and the most common adverse events included nausea, headache, dizziness, and vomiting. A New Drug Application (NDA) was filed with the FDA in December 2016. ZALVISO is designed to deliver sublingual tablets containing 15 mcg sufentanil via a novel hand-held, pre-programmed, patient-controlled analgesia system. Three Phase 3 clinical trials have been completed in patients who had undergone major abdominal or orthopedic surgeries. A fourth study (IAP312) is underway to further evaluate the overall performance of the ZALVISO System in post-surgical patients. ZALVISO is currently approved by the European Commission for the management of acute moderate-to-severe post-operative pain in adult patients in a hospital setting, and is marketed by Grünenthal Group, AcelRx`s licensee in Europe and Australia. In the United States and other geographies, ZALVISO remains an investigational product.
