Archimedes Pharma Presents Positive Efficacy and Safety Data on,Nasalfent at European Association for Palliative Care Congress

y. This study provides the first clinical evidence for Nasalfent as an effective, acceptable and well-tolerated treatment and is also the first study to report clinically meaningful relief of breakthrough cancer pain at five minutes using a non-injected route of administration. A nasally-delivered product that offers more rapid onset of pain relief than that seen with existing oral therapies would help reduce the burden of breakthrough cancer pain for patients and their caregivers."

Dr Mark Watling, Medical Director of Archimedes said: "The data presented at today's EAPC congress highlights the potential of Nasalfent to address a significant market and medical need. With an international Phase III trial programme now underway, Archimedes is generating an extensive body of data to support regulatory filings in both the US and Europe with the aim of bringing a vital therapy to patients with breakthrough cancer pain."

Nasalfent is a trade mark of Archimedes and are registered as CTM, and US Registered Trademarks and in certain other jurisdictions.
