IntelGenx Receives Amended DEL License to Conduct Third-Party Testing
- Provides opportunity to address market gap, catering to growing industry demand for reliable and efficient testing services -
SAINT LAURENT, Quebec, May 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IntelGenx Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (the "Company" or "IntelGenx") a leading drug delivery company, is pleased to announce that it has received an amended Drug Establishment License (“DEL”) from Health Canada, allowing the Company to conduct third-party testing.
Analytical testing of finished products and intermediates is a significantly underserved market, which IntelGenx has decided to tap into. The Company views this as an attractive opportunity for short-term revenue generation. The amended DEL license could be of particular importance due to IntelGenx's possession of a controlled substance license. This allows IntelGenx to access a broader market for testing services, further increasing its market penetration and revenue opportunities.
"By expanding our core CDMO business to include a third-party testing services offering, our aim is to offer ‘one-stop-shopping’ to our development partners,” said Dwight Gorham IntelGenx’s CEO. “IntelGenx's testing laboratory boasts exceptional efficiency and is currently operating at under capacity. This surplus in capacity allows us to seize the opportunity to generate revenue from third-party testing without any additional investment. While testing services will not be our primary focus, the added revenue will be welcomed, while at the same time, help foster business relationships with key players in the Canadian market.”

All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. currency, unless otherwise indicated, and results are reported in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles except where noted otherwise.
2023 First Quarter Financial Summary:
- Revenue was $162,000, compared to $237,000 in the 2022 first quarter.
- Net comprehensive loss was $2.9 million, compared to $3.0 million in Q1-2022.
- Adjusted EBITDA loss was $2.4 million, compared to $2.1 million in the 2022 first quarter.
First Quarter and Recent Developments:
- Received FDA approval of its RIZAFILM® VersaFilm® 505(b)(2) new drug application for the treatment of acute migraine.1
- Announced various changes to its management team. Its Board appointed Dwight Gorham as CEO, following the planned retirement of its founder and former-CEO, Dr. Horst G. Zerbe. Dr. David Kideckel, MBA, has been appointed as Senior Vice President, Head of Corporate Development and Strategic Alliances, and Tommy Kenny and Karen Kalayajian, CPA were promoted to Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Vice President, Finance and Administration of IntelGenx Corp., respectively.
- Announced that its co-developer, Chemo Research SL, through its agent and affiliate, Xiromed LLC (“Xiromed”), received a Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) regarding the submitted abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) for Buprenorphine Buccal Film. Xiromed’s CRL response is expected in the current quarter.
- Participated in the 35th Annual ROTH Conference and the 2023 Bloom Burton Conference.
- Received a Notice of Allowance for U.S. Patent Application 16/053,383, entitled "Loxapine Film Oral Dosage Form,” from the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

- Extended the expiry date of warrants originally issued to Cantone Research Inc. on August 5, 2021 by an additional 12 months to August 4, 2024.
“IntelGenx had another eventful quarter highlighted by the achievement of a major milestone: the FDA’s approval of RIZAFILM® for the treatment of acute migraine,” commented Andre Godin, IntelGenx’s President and CFO. “We are working closely with our commercialization partner, Gensco® Pharma, to bring this convenient, fast-acting treatment to migraine sufferers across the United States. This program is also quickly gaining momentum outside of the U.S., as evidenced by our supply agreement earlier in the quarter with ARWAN for various countries in the Middle East and North Africa region.
“We were also pleased to partner with Dr. Svenningsson on his clinical study of Montelukast VersaFilm® for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease, which is the indication for our ongoing Phase 2a ‘BUENA’ clinical trial. We are hopeful that Montelukast VersaFilm® will prove to be efficacious for both of these devastating indications, especially given an expected increase in prevalence due to an aging global population and paucity of effective treatments.”
1. RIZAFILM® (U.S. market name for RIZAPORT®) is a Registered Trademark of Gensco® Pharma Corporation
Financial Results:
Total revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 amounted to $162,000, a decrease of 32% compared to $237,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. The change is mainly attributable to decreases in R&D revenues of $63,000 and royalties on product sales of $12,000.
Operating costs and expenses were $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2023, versus $2.5 million for the corresponding three-month period of 2022.

For the first quarter of 2023, the Company had an operating loss of $2.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $2.3 million for the comparable period of 2022.
Net comprehensive loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 was $2.9 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared to net comprehensive loss of $3.0 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable period of 2022.

IntelGenx and Arwan Enter into a Supply Agreement for RIZAPORT® in MENA Countries
SAINT LAURENT, Quebec, Jan. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IntelGenx Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (the "Company" or "IntelGenx"), a leader in pharmaceutical films, announced today that it has entered into an exclusive supply agreement (the “Agreement”) for RIZAPORT® (the “Product”) with ARWAN Pharmaceuticals Industries Lebanon s.a.l. (“ARWAN”) in various countries in the Middle East and North Africa (“MENA”) region, including Lebanon, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Iraq, , Libya, Oman, Yemen, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, Sudan, Kenya, Nigeria, Mauritius, Cameroon, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan (the “Territory”).
RIZAPORT® is a proprietary oral thin film formulation of rizatriptan benzoate, a 5-HT1 receptor agonist and the active drug in Merck & Co.'s Maxalt®. Rizatriptan is considered to be one of the most effective oral triptans, a class of molecules that constricts blood vessels in the brain to relieve swelling and other migraine symptoms.1 RIZAPORT® is based on IntelGenx's proprietary VersaFilm® technology. It dissolves rapidly and releases its active ingredient in the mouth. The administration method of the RIZAPORT® oral soluble film, which does not require the patient to swallow a pill or consume water, along with its neutral flavor, presents a therapeutic alternative for migraine patients, especially for those who suffer from migraine-related nausea, estimated to be approximately 80% of the total migraine patient population, and for patients suffering from dysphagia (difficulty swallowing).1
Under the terms of the Agreement, IntelGenx will supply the Product to ARWAN, which will have the exclusive right to register and commercialize it in the Territory.
“The marketing and distribution of an innovative product like RIZAPORT® requires deep insight into both the treatment and regulatory landscape within a target country,” commented Dr. Horst G. Zerbe, CEO of IntelGenx. “ARWAN knows the MENA marketplace intimately, and has a successful track record. We are looking forward to working with them."
"We are excited to bring this innovative and easy-to-administer treatment to patients in the MENA region, where migraine prevalence is similar to that in the rest of the world,” said Abdul Razzaq Yousef, President of ARWAN.

IntelGenx Announces Research Collaboration with Renowned Neurologist to Evaluate Montelukast VersaFilm® for the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease
SAINT-LAURENT, Quebec, Feb. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IntelGenx Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (the "Company" or "IntelGenx”), a leader in pharmaceutical films, today announced a research collaboration with Per Svenningsson, MD, PhD, of the Karolinska Institute, to plan and conduct a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study (the “Study”) to investigate the use of IntelGenx’s Montelukast VersaFilm® for the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease (“PD”).
Dr. Svenningsson will serve as the Principal Investigator for the planned Study and will sponsor it through a 20 million Swedish Crowns grant (approx. $2 million USD) awarded by the Swedish Research Council, Sweden’s largest governmental research funding body. IntelGenx will supply Dr. Svenningsson with both active and placebo films to be used in the 18-month treatment regimen for study participants. Upon completion of the Study, IntelGenx will retain the intellectual property rights and use the findings to further develop its Montelukast VersaFilm® program for Parkinson's disease treatment. The Study is currently expected to commence in the third quarter of 2023.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common movement disorders in elderly people and is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease (“AD”).1 It is a neurodegenerative disorder where misfolded alpha-synuclein-enriched aggregates, called Lewy bodies, are central in pathogenesis. No neuroprotective or disease-modifying treatments are currently available. The current standard treatment of PD motor dysfunction is based on the enhancement of dopaminergic transmission and involves the administration of L-dopa. Evidence from multiple patient studies and animal models has shown a significant immune component during the course of the disease, highlighting immunomodulation as a potential treatment strategy.2 Montelukast is a CysLT1 antagonist which decreases neuroinflammation by inhibiting CysLT1. Early results have indicated its potential usefulness for the treatment of various neurodegenerative disorders like PD and AD.
“We believe that Montelukast VersaFilm® has the potential to be disease-modifying, not only in AD, as is being currently investigated in the Phase 2a ‘BUENA’ clinical trial, but also in PD,” said Dr. Horst G. Zerbe, CEO of IntelGenx. “Dr. Svenningsson is professor of Clinical Neuroscience at the Karolinska Institute and investigates pathogenic mechanisms of PD. He has previously conducted a clinical study utilizing the tablet form of Montelukast in the treatment of PD, and we are excited that he will be leading this new clinical study with our proprietary oral film formulation of the drug.”

About Montelukast VersaFilm®
Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1997 for the treatment of asthma and seasonal allergic rhinitis. IntelGenx is working to repurpose Montelukast as a therapeutic to treat neurodegenerative diseases by re-formulating the drug into an oral film-based product. IntelGenx's proprietary VersaFilm® technology is especially suited for special needs patient populations, and the Montelukast VersaFilm® product offers many distinct advantages over tablets for Alzheimer’s Disease and PD patients, including the avoidance and minimization of first-pass-effects, ease of administration, improved API bioavailability, lower dosing and toxicity, better acceptability and improved compliance.
In Phase 1 studies, IntelGenx demonstrated that an oral film formulation of Montelukast is safe and tolerable in healthy subjects, reduces the first-pass-effect and has a 52% higher bioavailability compared to the regular Montelukast tablet, demonstrating a clear advantage of delivering Montelukast via film. IntelGenx's oral film also crossed the blood-brain barrier, an essential feature for treating degenerative brain diseases.

IntelGenx Receives USPTO Notice of Allowance for Loxapine Orange Book Eligible Patent
SAINT LAURENT, Quebec, Feb. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IntelGenx Corp. (TSX:IGX) (OTCQB:IGXT) (the "Company" or "IntelGenx”), a leader in pharmaceutical films, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) has granted a Notice of Allowance for U.S. Patent Application 16/053,383, entitled "Loxapine Film Oral Dosage Form.”
This film formulation patent covers Loxapine oral film formulations designed for use in patients with anxiety and agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar 1 disorder, and is intended to protect IntelGenx' Loxapine VersaFilm® product.
The new, soon to be patented, Loxapine oral film technology is designed to provide quick onset and a simple administration process for schizophrenia and bipolar 1 disorder patients.

IntelGenx's Loxapine VersaFilm® is intended as a rescue medication which can be administered by caregivers and, therefore, has the potential to increase availability of the drug to patients.
"The granting of this notice of allowance for a formulation specific orange book eligible patent for our Loxapine oral film validates the innovative work carried out on this project by our talented R&D team," said Horst G. Zerbe, CEO of IntelGenx. "While expanding our overall intellectual property portfolio, this new patent also solidifies the potential long-term market exclusivity of our unique Loxapine VersaFilm® product candidate."

All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. currency, unless otherwise indicated, and results are reported in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles except where noted otherwise.
"The progress we made throughout 2022 has led us to now being potentially on the cusp of a stage of anticipated rapid growth,” commented Dr. Horst G. Zerbe, CEO of IntelGenx. “In April, we expect the FDA’s decisions on the Buprenorphine Buccal Film ANDA, as well as the RIZAFILM® NDA. On the development front, we are also looking forward to atai announcing topline results from its Phase 1 clinical trial of Buccal VLS-01, the first ever in-human clinical study evaluating an all thin film psychedelic drug candidate.”
2022 Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights:
- Revenue was $173,000, compared to $494,000 in the 2021 fourth quarter, mostly due to one-time licensing revenue received in 2021.
- Net comprehensive loss was $2.3 million, compared to $2.9 million in the 2021 fourth quarter.
- Adjusted EBITDA loss was $2.3 million, essentially unchanged from Q4-2021.

The change is mainly attributable to decreases in revenues from licensing agreements of $249,000, R&D revenues of $43,000 and product revenues of $36,000, offset partially by an increase in royalties on product sales of $7,000. Operating costs and expenses were $2.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, versus $3.0 million for the corresponding three-month period of 2021. For Q4-2022, the Company had an operating loss of $2.5 million, essentially unchanged from the operating loss for the comparable period of 2021. Net comprehensive loss was $2.3 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to net comprehensive loss of $2.9 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable period of 2021.
Total revenues for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022 amounted to $1.0 million, representing a decrease of $585,000, or 38%, compared to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Operating costs and expenses were $10.4 million for the full year 2022, versus $9.5 million for the corresponding twelve-month period of 2021. For the twelve-month period of 2022, the Company had an operating loss of $9.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $8.0 million for the comparable period of 2021.

As at December 31, 2022, the Company's cash and short-term investments totalled $2.5 million, which did not include the $3.0 million secured loan granted to IntelGenx Corp. by atai in January 2023, nor the $760,000 in gross proceeds from the private placement offering of convertible notes, which closed in March 2023.
