SANTA BARBARA, Calif. and BUDAPEST, Hungary, Aug. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Palette Life Sciences AB ('Palette') with Gedeon Richter Plc. ('Richter'), today announced that as a part of a decentralised regulatory procedure including thirty European Union Economic Area member states, Palette and Richter received national marketing authorization for LIDBREE™ in the United Kingdom (UK). The product is a novel, proprietary thermo gelling intrauterine formulation that can provide significant pain relief during common gynecological procedures.

LIDBREE's marketing authorization is based on compelling data from clinical trials and investigations of sensory innervation in the reproductive area. In a pivotal clinical trial, LIDBREE treatment was associated with a significant reduction of pain and discomfort in women undergoing gynecological interventions.

LIDBREE is a novel gel containing the local anesthetic lidocaine which adheres to the mucosal tissue upon application to provide excellent analgesic effect - Gunvor Ekman-Ordeberg, MD PhD Professor at Karolinska Institute

Post this

"Our research group has detected pain nerves superficially throughout the uterus, which enable the use of local pain relief in many gynecological procedures such as insertion of an intrauterine device and sampling biopsies from the cervix and/or from the uterus – procedures that are currently routinely performed today without pain relief. LIDBREE is a novel gel containing the local anesthetic lidocaine which adheres to the mucosal tissue upon application to provide excellent analgesic effect", says Gunvor Ekman-Ordeberg, MD PhD Professor at Karolinska Institute and founder of the LIDBREE program. "The gratification of observing the culmination of over 40 years of research into clinical practice via a new, simple, and effective treatment is a great privilege to share with all of my colleagues."

In October 2017, Richter and Palette signed an agreement to commercialise LIDBREE, a novel innovative proprietary pain relief pharmaceutical formulation, in Europe and in certain other markets.

"We are very pleased with the approval of LIDBREE in the UK, it is a great accomplishment from everyone involved. This is an important milestone and allows us to address a significant unmet medical need in women's health. We look forward to supporting LIDBREE's product launch through our partner Gedeon Richter and pursuing additional markets, such as the U.S., in collaboration with future regional partners." says Helena Jansson, Managing Director at Palette Life Sciences AB.

"We've been expecting this regulatory development and we are looking forward to successfully introduce LIDBREE to all of the territories covered by our agreement in order to further improve the quality of life of women experiencing pain during their gynaecological interventions," stated Tibor Horváth, Commercial Director of Gedeon Richter Plc.

About LIDBREE™
LIDBREE™ is a product employing a novel lidocaine delivery technology to provide pain relief on mucosal tissue. Unlike other topical formulations, the unique features of LIDBREE allows gel to remain on the mucosal surface of the cervical canal and the uterus for the necessary time for pain relief. LIDBREE is indicated for topical anaesthesia for moderate acute pain during cervical and intrauterine procedures, such as such as placement of intrauterine contraception, hysteroscopy, cervical and endometrial biopsies in adults and adolescents from 15 years of age.
