Pacira Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Company Profile
Pacira Pharmaceuticals lets injections last longer with its DepoFoam technology. The company develops sustained-release therapies based on DepoFoam, an injectable drug delivery technology that allows both immediate and sustained release. Its two marketable products are DepoCyt for treating cancer-related neoplastic meningitis and DepoDur for the treatment of post-operative pain. Pacira's lead candidate is EXPAREL, an injectable local anesthetic. The company has two manufacturing facilities that make its Depo products. Once the injectables subsidiary of drug-delivery company SkyePharma PLC, Pacira was bought out in 2007 by an investor group led by MPM Capital, OrbiMed, HBM Bioventures, and Sanderling Ventures.
