Relmada Raises $3M to Develop LevoCap Painkiller

Relmada Therapeutics today announced that $3 million in Series A proceeds from stakeholders and investors will be used to continue the development of the opioid LevoCap.

Providing a once-daily extended release dosage of levorphanol, LevoCap is intended to treat chronic pain and potentially reverse a patient's analgesic tolerance to morphine.

Relmada anticipates launching a Phase 3 study for the drug in 2013, according to CEO Sergio Traversa.
