Indivior rockets on test outcome

The addiction specialist continues its run of good fortune
August 17, 2016

In pharmaceuticals, test results are everything and addiction specialist Indivior (INDV) has demonstrated that perfectly this week. The group's shares initially rocketed more than 20 per cent following a positive outcome for final phase testing of its new opioid addiction product, known as RBP-6000, which is used to treat patients who are addicted to opioids, alongside a wider counselling and psychosocial treatment plan.

The group still has to collate the final data and submit this to the US Food and Drug Administration. A possible product launch is on the cards for the final quarter of 2017.
