The Company has further entered into a business relationship with an organization that currently serves the business needs of more than 100 ketamine clinics nationwide. The Company has been given a target delivery date prior to the end of this month (March 2024) for initial stock of ketamine for sale to licensed end users. Sales are planned to commence once technical and logistical elements are finalized. Details for ordering will be available on our website as soon as they are available. www.hopetherapeutics.com
In contrast to NRx Pharmaceuticals, which is structured as a Biotechnology research and development company, HOPE Therapeutics is structured as a Specialty Pharmaceutical company that aims to supply a variety of therapeutic products to clinics that are treating suicidal depression and PTSD, including both traditional and digital therapeutics.
"We are pleased to be working with two outstanding organizations in Conversio Health and Nephron Pharmaceuticals to provide this important medication to a market in need of a consistent supply of high-quality, FDA- and DEA- compliant IV ketamine," said Matthew Duffy Chief Business Officer of NRx Pharmaceuticals and co-CEO of HOPE Therapeutics. "Importantly, these efforts will provide a strong foundation for expanding our product offering with our planed filing a New Drug Application with the FDA in the coming months, and the potential launch of HTX-100 in early 2025." The NDA filing currently awaits completion of an additional three months of product stability.
