Avanir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AVNR) was upgraded from Neutral to Buy and its price target raised from $5.00 to $10.00 per share by brokerage firm Mizuho
A couple of days ago, AVNR reported that the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware has ruled in favor of the company in its patent infringement lawsuit against Par Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Impax Laboratories, Inc. in conjunction with their Abbreviated New Drug Applications for generic versions of NUEDEXTA(R) (dextromethorphan hydrobromide/quinidine sulfate) capsules for the treatment of pseudobulbar affect.
The ruling protects AVNR‘s NUEDEXTA patents through 2026, and prevents Par or Impax from bringing a biosimilar to market.
Pseudobulbar affect (PBA) is a neurologic condition characterized by emotional outbursts that are often contrary or exaggerated to the patient’s inner mood state, causing them to laugh or cry uncontrollably. As a result, many of those afflicted with PBA show significant impairment on standard measures of health status, and disruption in occupational and social function, often leading to social isolation.
PBA can occur in stroke survivors or people with other neurologic conditions such as dementia, multiple sclerosis, Lou Gehrig’s disease (ALS) or traumatic brain injury. It is thought to affect more than 1 million people in the U.S.
According to AVNR, new data from the Phase III STAR Trial showed that NUEDEXTA may provide early PBA symptomatic remission. Throughout the trial, sustained episode remission rates in patients treated with NUEDEXTA were significantly higher compared to placebo.
AVNR‘s NUEDEXTA is the only medication specifically designed and FDA-approved to treat PBA.
AVNR is a biopharmaceutical company focused on bringing innovative medicines to patients with central nervous system disorders of high unmet medical need.
