"2021 was a transformational year for IntelGenx, during which we achieved multiple corporate milestones, entered into important strategic partnerships and made significant progress across our various development programs," commented Dr. Horst G. Zerbe, CEO of IntelGenx. "We transitioned from a development-stage to a commercial-stage leader in pharmaceutical films with our first shipment of CBD Filmstrips to Heritage Cannabis; and graduated to the TSX, Canada’s most senior exchange. We entered into a strategic partnership and signed a second feasibility agreement with atai, solidifying our position in the burgeoning psychedelics space; established a commercial partnership for Tadalafil oral films in the U.S.; and partnered with an animal healthcare company to evaluate our VetaFilmTM platform. Further, our commercialization partner, Exeltis Healthcare S.L., launched our migraine treatment, RIZAPORT in Spain. On the heels of all of that, we were pleased to start 2022 with the resumption of our Phase 2a ‘BUENA’ clinical trial. I am thrilled with our team’s progress, which positions us for continued success this year and beyond."
