KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., May 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trevena, Inc. (NASDAQ:TRVN) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and provided an update on its ongoing clinical programs.
“This quarter marked a key milestone for our OLINVO program, with the delivery of robust data that we believe will support our new drug application and demonstrates the potential value of OLINVO for the management of moderate-to-severe acute pain in the hospital,” said Maxine Gowen, Ph.D., chief executive officer. “There remains a critical unmet need for patients who require IV opioids to manage pain but are at risk for poor outcomes from opioid-related adverse effects. Our successful Phase 3 data showed not only significant efficacy of OLINVO versus placebo to support approval, but also showed the potential for fewer gastrointestinal and respiratory adverse effects while providing comparable pain relief to a commonly used morphine regimen.”
