SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April 30, 2013 – Titan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCBB: TTNP) announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued this evening a Complete Response Letter (CRL) to its New Drug Application (NDA) for Probuphine®, the company’s investigational subdermal implant for the maintenance treatment of opioid dependence in adult patients.

“Titan and our partner, Braeburn Pharmaceuticals, are extremely surprised and disappointed with the FDA’s response. Probuphine is a diversion-resistant formulation that is consistent with the recently-issued FDA guidance supporting diversion- and abuse-resistant products, and the NDA was designated Priority Review by the FDA. We believe Probuphine has demonstrated both safety and efficacy in accordance with primary endpoints that were pre-agreed with the FDA and, moreover, the safety, efficacy and overall approval of Probuphine was strongly supported by the Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Committee,” said Marc Rubin, M.D., executive chairman of Titan Pharmaceuticals. “Given the nationally-recognized, growing and devastating opioid dependence epidemic, there is critical need for new safe and effective treatments that reduce the likelihood of abuse, diversion and accidental pediatric exposure, and Titan and Braeburn remain committed to making Probuphine available for patients that need it.”
