TITAN PHARMACEUTICALS AND INDEGENE ENTER
INTO PROBUPHINE CO-PROMOTION PARTNERSHIP
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA - June 24,
2020 - Titan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTNP) ("Titan" or the "Company") today announced that
it has entered into a co-promotion partnership with Indegene Inc. to establish multichannel digital marketing programs throughout
the United States and expand the capabilities for the engagement of health care providers ("HCPs") who are eligible
to prescribe Titan's Probuphine (buprenorphine) implant.
Indegene is a leading healthcare solutions
company with a unique blend of life sciences domain expertise and state-of-the-art technology capabilities that will complement
and help accelerate the build out of the current commercial operations at Titan. Under the terms of the renewable four-year agreement,
Indegene's sophisticated multichannel marketing tools, predictive analytics, webinars and social media campaigns will be used along
with its dedicated tele-representatives to help expand the universe of Probuphine Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy ("REMS")-certified
HCPs and enable further expansion of maintenance treatment with Probuphine for eligible Opioid Use Disorder ("OUD")
patients. Titan will continue its ongoing commercial efforts with its field sales and medical liaison personnel who will also provide
support to Indegene as needed. Titan will be responsible for all training of HCPs, administration of the REMS program and regulatory
"This partnership with Indegene further
strengthens and expands our Probuphine commercial operations, especially with the COVID-19-related restrictions that have limited
in-person HCP outreach capabilities," said Titan's President and CEO, Sunil Bhonsle. "Indegene brings a wealth of business
expertise and experience in the digital arena working globally with large and small pharmaceutical companies that is invaluable
in today's changing environment. This partnership accelerates the expansion of our capabilities to potentially achieve our
goals and enable access to Probuphine for eligible patients suffering from OUD, especially at a time when a six-month maintenance
treatment option could be very important in minimizing frequent direct contact."

Important Safety Information and Boxed Warning below, and link below to Full Prescribing Information.
"We are looking forward to partnering
with Titan using our proven AI-driven Next Generation Commercialization Platform," said Gaurav Kapoor, Executive Vice President
of Indegene Inc. "This partnership comes at a meaningful time, when the COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating the opioid crisis
while limiting direct engagement with the HCPs that treat OUD patients. I believe the new normal' model in pharma
commercial operations will start relying just as much on digital programs with remote representatives, as field representatives
providing face-to-face interaction. We at Indegene are making significant investments to be at the forefront of this transition
and are excited to see Titan embrace this innovative approach."
Probuphine is the only subdermal implant
designed to deliver buprenorphine continuously for six months following insertion.
Probuphine was developed using ProNeura ,
the continuous drug delivery system developed by Titan that consists of a small, solid implant made from a mixture of ethylene-vinyl
acetate and a drug substance. The resulting construct is a solid matrix that is placed subdermally, normally in the upper inner
arm in an outpatient office procedure and removed in a similar manner at the end of the treatment period. The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA") approved Probuphine in May 2016, and it is the first and only buprenorphine implant available
for the maintenance treatment of opioid addiction in eligible patients.
