On July 28, 2022, Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that the Company has committed to fund an unrestricted research grant to the Leiden University Medical Center Anesthesia and Pain Research Unit. The funding will support the work of Albert Dahan, MD, PhD, an expert on opioid-induced respiratory depression (opioid overdose) and professor of anesthesiology at the University. Dr. Dahan has been working with the FDA to understand better methods of reversing fentanyl overdoses. The objective of the work will be to assess the efficacy of the Company’s 5mg intramuscular ZIMHI product compared to 4mg of intranasal naloxone, and the respective number of doses required to reverse fentanyl-induced respiratory depression.
A copy of the Company’s press release is filed with this Report as Exhibit 99.1.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are identified by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingencies, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. These statements may relate to anticipated future events or future results of operations, including, but not limited to, statements concerning (i) the creation of federal guidelines to remove barriers to access opioid reversal products at the state and local levels, (ii) the likelihood of passage of congressional legislation designed to improve access to naloxone, and (iii) the effectiveness of ZIMHI in reversing the effects of opioid overdose and the results of the study described in the press release filed as an exhibit to this Report. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause Adamis’ actual results to be materially different from the results anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Adamis cannot assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update or release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements or to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this Report. Certain of these risks and additional risks, uncertainties, and other factors are described in greater detail in Adamis’ filings from time to time with the SEC, including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and subsequent filings with the SEC, which Adamis strongly urges you to read and consider, all of which are available free of charge on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
