Acacia Pharma announces BYFAVO™ (remimazolam), its Newly Approved Product for Procedural Sedation, Clears Final Hurdle on Path to Commercial Launch in the US
·BYFAVO expected to be commercially available in the US before the end of the year
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014.
Cambridge, UK and Indianapolis, US – 6 October 2020: Acacia Pharma Group plc (“Acacia Pharma” or the “Company”) (EURONEXT: ACPH), a commercial stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing novel products to improve the care of patients undergoing serious medical treatments such as surgery, invasive procedures, or chemotherapy, today announced that the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has designated its procedural sedative BYFAVO™ (remimazolam injection) as a Schedule IV medicine. This designation is the schedule for drugs with a low potential for abuse and low risk of dependence and is consistent with that granted to many other benzodiazepine drugs, including midazolam and diazepam (Valium®).
BYFAVO received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on 2 July 2020 for the induction and maintenance of procedural sedation in adults undergoing procedures lasting 30 minutes or less. Scheduling by DEA represents the final requirement for BYFAVO to be marketed in the US, with launch expected by the end of 2020.
“We are grateful to DEA for its timely determination of the scheduling of BYFAVO and are excited to bring this novel product to the US market,” commented Mike Bolinder, Acacia Pharma’s CEO. “We will start the process of labeling and packaging our stock of commercial product immediately so that we can make BYFAVO available to patients as soon as possible. We anticipate the product being available for sale in the US prior to the end of the year. Our first product, BARHEMSYS® (amisulpride injection) for postoperative nausea & vomiting, was launched in August and we are already registering product sales. We are delighted to be able to provide these two medicines to physicians and their patients in the United States.”

Hi rikic,
Paion presents at the Eigenkapitalforum in Frankfurt
PAION AG DE000A0B65S3 Dienstag, 23.11.2010 08:15-09:00 Room Madrid
I think, we get the Remimazolam results at this day or one day before, when the Conference started.
From where do you come. My home is also in Aachen, but i have nothing to do with Paion. Paion is one of mine favourite german biotech stock.
I hope you can understood my bad english. I learned my few Englisch words since about 45 years at my school time. But i never used my english and so it is very bad. I have a little Board withsome Paion facts.
German Erbses Paion Board
Have a nice day
