Collegium Obtains Six Month Extension of U.S.
Pediatric Exclusivity for Nucynta Franchise
STOUGHTON, Mass., June 13, 2024
-- Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Nasdaq: COLL), a leading, diversified specialty pharmaceutical company committed to
improving the lives of people living with serious medical conditions, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
has granted pediatric exclusivity for Nucynta and Nucynta ER ("the Nucynta Franchise"). In
2023, FDA granted New Patient Population exclusivity for Nucynta in pediatrics, extending the period of U.S. exclusivity from June 27,
2025, to July 3, 2026. FDA's grant of pediatric exclusivity now extends exclusivity of the Nucynta Franchise an additional
six months, to January 3, 2027, for Nucynta and December 27, 2025, for Nucynta ER.
"We are pleased with FDA's grant of pediatric exclusivity
for the Nucynta Franchise," said Thomas Smith, M.D., Collegium's Chief Medical Officer. "This grant of pediatric exclusivity
enhances the value of the Nucynta franchise and bolsters our near-term outlook. Collegium is proud to lead with science in support of
people living with serious medical conditions and the communities we serve."
Nucynta is currently approved in the U.S. for the management of acute
pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic, in light of the known risks associated with opioid analgesic use, and for which alternative
treatments are inadequate in adults and pediatric patients aged six years and older with a body weight of at least 40 kg.
Nucynta ER is currently approved in the U.S. for the management of
severe and persistent pain in adults that requires an extended treatment period with a daily opioid analgesic, in light of the known risks
associated with opioid analgesic use, and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate, and severe and persistent neuropathic
