LAS VEGAS, June 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- JanOne Inc. (Nasdaq: JAN), a company focused on developing treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and drugs with non-addictive, pain-relieving properties, today announced the successful completion of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) production of the first batch of JAN101 for its upcoming Phase 2b trial for treating Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).

The initial batch, produced by manufacturing partner CoreRX, contains approximately 200,000 sustained release tablets and matching placebos of JAN101, a patented sustained-release form of sodium nitrite aimed at improving vascular function and reducing neuropathic pain and other conditions resulting from poor blood flow. JAN101 is highly selective, acting only in damaged tissue.

"Completion of the CGMP batch is an exciting achievement as we advance toward our planned Phase 2b PAD trial for JAN101," said Tony Isaac, President and Chief Executive Officer of JanOne. "With CGMP compliance, we've proven our ability to economically scale-up production of JAN101 while preserving the product's identity, strength, quality, and purity. We are now focused on bottling and labeling JAN101 for distribution to clinical test sites and engaging a contract research organization (CRO) to manage our Phase 2b trial, including the recruitment of subjects."

Commenting on potential indications for JAN101, Isaac added, "Therapeutic options available for patients with PAD are extremely limited, and we believe our solution has the potential to transform the standard of care to an easy twice-a-day pill that substantially improves moderate to severe PAD and minimizes pain associated with the disease. We are also exploring the potential of JAN101 as a treatment for other conditions involving vascular complications, including chronic kidney disease, and, with our initial batch, we now have additional product available for collaborations with independent investigators on this and additional indications."

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the quality of pharmaceuticals through its main standard CGMP. Completion of CGMP production signifies that JanOne is fully compliant with the FDA's formal regulations regarding the design, monitoring, control, and maintenance of manufacturing processes and facilities for JAN101.
