Nutriband Inc. And Kindeva Drug Delivery Sign Feasibility Agreement to Develop AVERSA(TM) Fentanyl, an Abuse Deterrent Fentanyl Patch

ORLANDO, FL / ACCESSWIRE / January 10, 2022 / Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRB)(NASDAQ:NTRBW) today announced the signing of a feasibility agreement with Kindeva Drug Delivery to develop Nutriband's lead product, AVERSA™ Fentanyl, based on its proprietary AVERSA™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology and Kindeva's FDA-approved transdermal fentanyl patch (fentanyl transdermal system). The feasibility agreement is focused on adapting Kindeva's commercial transdermal manufacturing process to incorporate AVERSA technology.

Nutriband's AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology can be utilized to incorporate aversive agents into transdermal patches to prevent the abuse, diversion, misuse and accidental exposure of drugs with abuse potential. The technology is covered by a broad intellectual property portfolio with a recent notice of allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and international patents granted in Europe, Japan, Korea, Russia, Mexico, and Australia.

Kindeva, a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), has a rich legacy of over 50 years of pharmaceutical innovation as 3M Drug Delivery Systems. Kindeva scientists and engineers include pioneers in the transdermal industry who developed the first drug-in-matrix transdermal patch which has become the standard patch design in the transdermal market. Kindeva currently manufactures millions of branded and generic transdermal patches each year which are distributed globally, primarily in the US, Europe and Asia.

‘We are delighted to partner with Kindeva, a world leader in transdermal product development and manufacturing, to help us bring AVERSA Fentanyl to market. Our focus is to develop our AVERSA abuse deterrent technology to improve the safety profile of transdermal drugs susceptible to abuse, such as fentanyl, while making sure that these drugs remain accessible to those patients who really need them,' said Gareth Sheridan, CEO, Nutriband.

‘Kindeva has a long track record of proven innovation in drug delivery, including in transdermal systems. We are excited to bring the talents of our team and our approved product to this feasibility collaboration with Nutriband. Continuing to formulate and develop combination products that are safe and effective for patients is central to our mission,' said Aaron Mann, CEO, Kindeva.
