Dr. Todd Bertoch, an anesthesiologist who has participated in clinical trials of other prior long-acting local anesthetics and a principal investigator in this study, said, "The fact that all available slots filled in just a few weeks is a tribute to the organization and care that CaliBio brings to organizing and executing on these studies, while also speaking to the unmet need of having a safe and effective long-acting ropivacaine with a broad approval.” Dr. Erol Onel, Chief Medical Officer of CaliBio US who has developed several other long-acting local anesthetics, agreed, "A successful trial in a bony surgery, like bunionectomy, will build on our already demonstrated success from our prior hernia and abdominoplasty trials. This should continue to help patients control or eliminate their post-operative pain, while decreasing any need for opioids."
Such an important project to fight the opioid crisis…
