Trevena, Inc. Announces Presentations of OLINVYK™ Health Economic Models at AMCP 2021 Annual Meeting-- Models demonstrate substantial overall cost savings for hospitals when using OLINVYK compared to IV morphine in postoperative care -- CHESTERBROOK, Pa., April 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trevena, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRVN), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel medicines for patients with central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today announced two poster presentations at the AMCP 2021 Annual Meeting. The conference was held virtually from April 13th to 14th, 2021. The posters highlight two health economic models developed for OLINVYK (oliceridine) injection, which estimate the budget impact of OLINVYK compared to IV morphine when used on-demand in a hospital setting for postoperative pain. A “Base Case” model assumes a broad patient population. A “High Risk” model limits the population to patients who are both elderly (= 65 years old) and obese (BMI = 30 kg/m2), part of the Company’s initial core focus for launch. Both models were developed using AE incidence rates from the OLINVYK Phase 3 program and AE cost estimates from the published literature and claims data as referenced in the posters. “Publishing these health economic models is the latest accomplishment in our ongoing launch of OLINVYK,” said Mark Demitrack, M.D., Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of Trevena, Inc. “These models form a critical component of the comprehensive product dossier for OLINVYK, and I am pleased to have this opportunity to share these compelling cost offset findings with key hospital stakeholders.” One of the posters, “Budget Impact Analysis for Oliceridine in the Management of Moderate-to Severe Acute Postoperative Pain,” was selected by the conference for a Gold Ribbon. This designation was awarded based on the same criteria used by Journal of Managed Care & Specialty Pharmacy to evaluate manuscripts and was only given to 20% of all submitted abstracts.

While the cost savings in these health economic models cannot be guaranteed, they are based on generally accepted methodology, and pharmacy and therapeutics committees typically review health economic models when making drug formulary decisions. About OLINVYK™ (oliceridine) injection OLINVYK is a new chemical entity approved by the FDA in August 2020. OLINVYK contains oliceridine, a Schedule II controlled substance with a high potential for abuse similar to other opioids. It is indicated in adults for the management of acute pain severe enough to require an intravenous opioid analgesic and for whom alternative treatments are inadequate. OLINVYK is available in 1 mg/1 mL and 2 mg/2 mL single-dose vials, and a 30 mg/30 mL single-patient-use vial for patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). Approved PCA doses are 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg and doses greater than 3 mg should not be administered. The cumulative daily dose should not exceed 27 mg.
