Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On April 22, 2022, Trevena, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice that enrollment for TRV027 as part of the ACTIV-4 (Accelerating COVID-19 Therapeutic Interventions and Vaccines-4) Host Tissue platform (the “ACTIV-4 Platform”) has ceased. Based upon data at the interim analysis, the ACTIV-4 Platform Data and Safety Monitoring Board has recommended that certain trials in the ACTIV-4 Platform, including the TRV027 vs placebo trial, should cease enrollment and discontinue study medication due to having met the inferiority stopping criterion. The 90-day follow up of participants in the TRV027 trial will proceed as planned. Details about the trial results and conclusions will be disseminated once all data have been fully analyzed. 

 

Other than the Company supplying drug for the study, the ACTIV-4 Platform is fully funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, a part of the National Institutes of Health.
