Nutriband’s Aversa(TM) Buprenoprhine May Reach Peak Annual Sales 0f $70-130 Million Based on Market Assessment by Leading Healthcare Consulting Firm

ORLANDO, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 11, 2023 / Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRB)(NASDAQ:NTRBW), a company engaged in the development of transdermal pharmaceutical products, today announced it has completed the market assessment and commercialization strategy for AVERSA™ Buprenorphine, an abuse deterrent buprenorphine transdermal system.

The company engaged leading healthcare consulting company Health Advances to assess the market opportunity and commercial strategy for Aversa™ Buprenorphine, which has the potential to be the world's first buprenorphine transdermal system with abuse deterrent properties. Once approved by the United States FDA, Aversa Buprenorphine will be priced competitively with non-abuse deterrent options and may reach peak annual US sales of $70-130 million.1 The company is also considering developing the product for strategic international markets as protected by its global abuse deterrent patent portfolio.

‘Health Advances was able to confirm the significant unmet patient need for Aversa™ Buprenorphine based on rigorous primary and secondary market research accompanied with deep experience in the abuse deterrence pain space. We are excited to initiate the development of the second product in our Aversa™ technology platform portfolio to address additional markets that utilize transdermal patches with a labelled risk of abuse.' said Gareth Sheridan, CEO, Nutriband. ‘Improving the safety profile of easily abused transdermal opioid drugs, while making sure that these drugs remain accessible to those patients who really need them is the driving force for our company.'

Nutriband recently announced expanded intellectual property protection in the United States for its portfolio of abuse deterrent transdermal products based on its proprietary Aversa™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology that uses taste aversion to address the primary routes of opioid patch abuse. This technology can be incorporated into transdermal patches to prevent the abuse, diversion, misuse, and accidental exposure of drugs with abuse potential. Nutriband's lead product under development is Aversa™ Fentanyl, an abuse deterrent fentanyl transdermal system, with the potential to become the first abuse deterrent pain patch on the market. Previously work by Health Advances determined that the market potential for Aversa™ Fentanyl was estimated to reach peak annual US sales of $80-200 million.2
