Prism Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a US-based, acute care specialty pharmaceutical company developing and commercializing branded cardiovascular injectable products, with headquarters in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. It is developing novel, differentiated pharmaceuticals that address unmet medical needs with a specific focus on medication safety in the hospital environment.
The Company’s lead compound, NEXTERONE® (amiodarone HCl), is a novel, patent-protected, cosolvent-free form of injectable amiodarone, a leading antiarrhythmic agent for use in both acute and emergency settings. NEXTERONE was approved by the FDA at the end of 2008. Ongoing development of NEXTERONE will lead to a full product line comprised of ready-to-use premixed bags and a pre-filled syringe to address medication management issues in the hospital environment. Prism intends to commercialize NEXTERONE in the US market and partner the global rights to the product.
Prism is also developing PM103, a novel intravenous formulation of the antiplatelet agent clopidogrel, the active ingredient in orally available PLAVIX® (clopidogrel bisulfate).
Prism will continue to pursue unfulfilled opportunities in existing compounds from which it will develop novel formulations to achieve full therapeutic and market potential. This approach mitigates risk, leads to a well-defined regulatory pathway, and fully characterizes clinical needs for each product opportunity. The seasoned management team with decades of commercial and drug development expertise allows Prism to evaluate product development concepts and marketplace opportunities efficiently and cost effectively while managing commercial and regulatory risk.
