NRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRXP) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics based on its NMDA platform for the treatment of central nervous system disorders, specifically suicidal bipolar depression, chronic pain and PTSD. NRXP is developing NRX-101, an FDA-designated investigational Breakthrough Therapy for suicidal treatment-resistant bipolar depression and chronic pain.

NRXP has partnered with Alvogen Pharmaceuticals around the development and marketing of NRX-101 for the treatment of suicidal bipolar depression. NRX-101 additionally has potential to act as a non-opioid treatment for chronic pain, as well as a treatment for complicated UTI.

NRXP is working on a New Drug Application for NRX-100 (IV ketamine) in the treatment of suicidal depression, based on results of well-controlled clinical trials conducted under the auspices of the US National Institutes of Health and newly obtained data from French health authorities, licensed under a data sharing agreement. NRXP was awarded Fast Track Designation for development of ketamine (NRX-100) by the US FDA as part of a protocol to treat patients with acute suicidality.

Alignment with FDA on Pediatric Study Plan for NRX-100 (ketamine)

On July 29th NRXP announced a communication from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) providing feedback and alignment on the Company’s proposed initial Pediatric Study Plan (iPSP) for NRX-100 (ketamine) in the treatment of suicidal depression. Congress required the submission of an iPSP as a precondition to filing a New Drug Application in the 2012 Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA).

In support of its upcoming NDA filing, NRXP will be submitting existing data supporting the safety and efficacy of ketamine to treat suicidal depression in adults. FDA has now documented its recognition that suicide is a serious and growing public health concern in adolescents as well. Based on the guidance received, NRXP will commit to conducting a clinical trial of NRX-100 in adolescents aged 9-17 with suicidal depression, but will not be required to study the effects of NRX-100 in younger age groups, following initial approval of NRX-100 in adults. Additional neurotoxicity studies will be conducted to support the safety of intravenous ketamine in this younger population.

Arbitration Order Enabling HOPE Therapeutics Spinoff 

On July 29th NRXP announced an order of the Utah arbitrator denying the petition of Streeterville Capital, LLC to enjoin the planned spinoff of 49% of shares in HOPE Therapeutics to current shareholders of NRXP. The purpose of this spinoff was both to provide NRXP shareholders with valuable consideration and to provide HOPE Therapeutics (currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of NRXP) with a sufficient shareholder base to enable future listing on a public securities exchange. The arbitrator also denied Streeterville’s petition to enjoin NRXP from selling additional shares of NRXP stock to finance ongoing operations.

“As we have previously shared with the public, HOPE Therapeutics is in the process of developing a best-in-class network of clinics that currently offer ketamine and other lifesaving therapies to patients with suicidal depression. This arbitration decision enables us to keep our promise to shareholders to spin out up to 49% of HOPE Therapeutics shares held by NRXP to NRXP shareholders as of an ex-dividend date to be announced, subject to approval of a Form 10 filing by the US Securities and Exchange Commission and approval of the NRx Board of Directors. We appreciate the support and loyalty of our shareholders as we work to bring HOPE to life,” said Prof. Jonathan Javitt, Founder and Chairman of NRXP and Co-CEO of HOPE Therapeutics.
