Das Puzzle setzt sich zusammen, Mannkind goes Cannabis: Receptor Holdings, Inc. Secures $29 Million Funding Round October 29, 2018 04:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Receptor Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Receptor Life Sciences, a biopharmaceutical company developing cannabinoid medicines featuring distinct pharmaceutical drug delivery technologies, today announced that it raised $29 million in a combined convertible debt and Series A round of financing. “The closing of the Series A round will allow us to initiate IND-enabling studies in the United States and to formalize collaborations in Canada and Europe” Tweet this Receptor controls patented and disruptive oral and inhaled drug delivery technologies that are validated by their use in FDA-approved products. In initial studies, Receptor’s oral dosage formulations facilitated rapid drug absorption from the GI tract with higher bioavailability than has been reported for existing oral cannabinoid products. Receptor’s inhalation technology combines a simple-to-use, breath-powered inhaler with dry powder cannabinoid formulations that provides ultra-rapid, precise and discreet delivery of cannabinoid medicines to the deep lung. “The closing of the Series A round will allow us to initiate IND-enabling studies in the United States and to formalize collaborations in Canada and Europe,” said Greg Wesner, Chief Executive Officer of Receptor Holdings. “The growing consensus is that cannabinoids have the potential to meet numerous and significant unmet medical needs for indications including epilepsy, chronic pain and post-traumatic stress disorder. By leveraging validated drug delivery technologies, we believe our products have the potential to set the standard of care for cannabinoid medicines in terms of onset of action, bioavailability and consistency.” ABOUT RECEPTOR HOLDINGS Receptor Holdings, Inc. owns or has exclusively licensed drug delivery technologies characterized by high bioavailability, rapid onset of action and lower variability and is applying these technologies to the burgeoning field of cannabinoid therapy. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Receptor Life Sciences, is focused on the development of cannabinoid drugs regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Receptor Holdings also plans to introduce its disruptive technologies to the non-prescription cannabinoid markets that are developing in Canada, Europe and elsewhere.
