FDA Posts Federal Register Notice for an Advisory Committee Meeting to Review

New Drug Application for RBP-6000

Slough, UK, 3 October 2017 - Indivior PLC (LON: INDV) (the 'Company') today announces the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published notice, via the Federal Register, that a joint Meeting of the Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Committee and the Drug Safety and Risk Management Advisory Committee will review Indivior's New Drug Application (NDA) for RBP-6000 on October 31, 2017.

RBP-6000 is an investigational once-monthly injectable buprenorphine in the ATRIGEL^® delivery system for the treatment of adults with moderate-to-severe opioid use disorder (OUD). Indivior submitted the NDA for RBP-6000 in May 2017, following which the FDA granted Priority Review Designation and set a PDUFA (Prescription Drug User Fee Act) date of November 30, 2017. As part of the routine NDA review process, the FDA convenes an Advisory Committee for all new chemical entities, unless the reviewing division can provide adequate justification for not holding a meeting. The role of an Advisory Committee is to provide the FDA with independent advice from outside experts. The FDA will consider the Advisory Committee recommendation and will make the final decision.

"The Advisory Committee meeting moves us one step closer to potentially bringing a critical new treatment option to patients with opioid use disorder," said Christian Heidbreder, Chief Scientific Officer at Indivior. "We are looking forward to the opportunity to share our data with the Advisory Committee."
