Pain Therapeutics Reports Q2 2011 Financial Results

On-Track With 2011 Financial Guidance

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 4, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pain Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:PTIE) today reported financial results for its second quarter, which ended June 30, 2011. Net loss was $1.2 million, or $0.03 per share. We ended the quarter with cash and investments of $101.0 million. We still expect net cash requirements in 2011 to be under $5.0 million.

On June 24, 2011, we and Pfizer, Inc. (NYSE:PFE) announced that a Complete Response Letter was received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the resubmission to the new drug application (NDA) for REMOXY® (oxycodone) Extended-Release Capsules CII. Pfizer is working to evaluate the issues described in the Complete Response Letter and plans to have further discussions with the FDA around them.

"Remoxy is still our destiny and its approval our destination," said Remi Barbier, Chairman, President and CEO. "We are humbled by the amount of time this journey is taking but remain highly encouraged by our partner's commitment and its talented, experienced and principled people."

Pain Therapeutics believes that its flagship drug candidate, REMOXY, can generate meaningful revenue after its commercial launch by Pfizer, based on the sheer size of the target market, Pfizer's marketing heft and strong presence in pain management, the potential advantages of REMOXY over existing products and the Company's 15-20% royalty on net sales in the U.S.

Q2 2011 Financial Detail

About REMOXY

REMOXY is an investigational extended-release oral formulation of oxycodone for the relief of moderate to severe pain requiring continuous, around-the-clock opioid treatment. We developed REMOXY to discourage common methods of drug tampering.

In 2005, we entered into a strategic alliance with King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to develop and commercialize REMOXY. We filed the initial NDA for REMOXY in June 2008 and received a Complete Response Letter in December 2008. King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. assumed full control of the development of REMOXY in March 2009, filed a resubmission to the REMOXY NDA in December 2010, and received a Complete Response Letter for such resubmission in June 2011. Pfizer obtained rights to REMOXY upon the close of its acquisition of King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on February 28, 2011.

About Pain Therapeutics, Inc.

Pain Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company that develops novel drugs. The FDA has not approved any of our drug candidates for commercial sale. For more information, please visit www.paintrials.com. 

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements for purposes of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). Pain Therapeutics disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, and claims the protection of the Safe Harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Act. Examples of such statements include, but are not limited to, any statements relating to our cash usage in 2011; plans with respect to continued pursuit of regulatory approval for REMOXY by our strategic partner; the potential for revenue from REMOXY (including statements relating to the expected market size, marketing capabilities of Pfizer and advantages of REMOXY over existing products); expected milestone payments under our strategic alliance; the use and market acceptance of abuse resistant formulations; our spending on our pipeline of drug candidate; and funding obligations of our partners. Such statements are based on management's current expectations, but actual results may differ materially due to various factors. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those risks and uncertainties relating to difficulties or delays in development, testing and pursuit of regulatory approval of our drug candidates; unexpected adverse side effects or inadequate therapeutic efficacy of our drug candidates; difficulties or delays in commercialization efforts with respect to our products; if any are approved for marketing, or failure of such products to gain market acceptance; the uncertainty of patent protection for our intellectual property or trade secrets; unanticipated additional research and development and other costs; the timing and receipt of funds from Pfizer; potential diversion by strategic partners of resources from the pursuit of development and commercialization of drug candidates subject to our strategic alliance; and the potential for abuse resistant pain medications or other competing products or therapies to be developed by competitors and potential competitors or others. For further information regarding these and other risks related to the Company's business, investors should consult the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
