Scilex Holding Company Announces Publication in PAIN Journal Regarding Phase 3 Results of the Pivotal Registration Trial of SP-102 (SEMDEXA™) in Lumbosacral Radicular Pain (Sciatica)
▪️The Phase 3 study results are being published in PAIN® Journal, which is the leading journal devoted to pain medicine and research. PAIN is the official journal of the International Association for the Study of Pain, and features original research on the nature, mechanisms and treatment of pain.
▪️This Phase 3 study met primary and important key secondary endpoints, with SP-102 (SEMDEXA™) treatment, decreasing pain intensity for over a month in sciatica patients and resulting in statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in the disability index score while maintaining safety comparable to placebo.
▪️This Phase 3 topline data result was presented at the American Society of Interventional Pain (ASIPP) conference in Las Vegas in May 2022 in an oral presentation by Dr. Nebojsa Nick Knezevic, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Anesthesiology and Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Illinois at Chicago, President of the Illinois Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, Director-at-Large of the North American Society of Neuromodulation, Vice-Chair for Research and Education, Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Management.
▪️This Phase 3 study represents a potential significant improvement in treatment of adult patients with lumbosacral radicular pain (sciatica), who struggle with the clinical consequences of no currently FDA approved therapies, suboptimal formulations of corticosteroids used off-label and/or excess pain and disability.
▪️SP-102 (SEMDEXA™) was granted Fast Track status from the FDA in 2017.
