Rhea-AI Filing Summary

PRF Technologies Ltd. furnished a report highlighting expanded preclinical results for its lead post-operative pain candidate, PRF-110, from a head-to-head study against approved benchmark ZYNRELEF. An independent research firm reported comparable analgesic efficacy along with slower absorption and enhanced local tissue retention for PRF-110.

The data, generated in a validated porcine post-operative pain model using von Frey methodology, further describe PRF-110’s pharmacokinetic and tissue-distribution profile. PRF-110 is a proprietary, oil-based extended-release ropivacaine formulation designed for single administration into the surgical wound bed to provide prolonged local analgesia and potentially reduce opioid use after surgery.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • None.
preclinical study technical
"announced expanded results from its previously reported preclinical study directly comparing its lead product candidate"
Lab and animal experiments conducted before testing a drug or medical device in humans to evaluate safety, dosing and early signs of effectiveness. Think of it as a prototype test drive that helps scientists spot serious problems and tune the approach before human trials; positive preclinical results lower the chance of costly failure and raise the value and credibility of a biotech investment, while negative results increase risk.
pharmacokinetic (PK) medical
"The expanded results characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and tissue-distribution properties of PRF-110"
Pharmacokinetic (pk) describes how a substance, such as a medication or chemical, moves through and is processed by the body over time. It includes how the substance is absorbed, distributed, broken down, and eventually eliminated. For investors, understanding pharmacokinetics helps assess the potential effectiveness, safety, and market success of new drugs or treatments.
extended-release formulation medical
"PRF-110 is a proprietary, oil-based, viscous, clear extended-release formulation of ropivacaine"
An extended-release formulation is a medicine designed to release its active ingredient slowly over an extended period instead of all at once, like a timed sprinkler that waters a lawn gradually rather than flooding it. For investors, it matters because this design can improve patient convenience and adherence, support premium pricing, extend commercial life versus immediate-release versions, and create different regulatory and competitive dynamics that affect sales and profitability.
von Frey methodology technical
"using von Frey methodology, to assess both analgesic efficacy and PK properties"
A laboratory test that measures how sensitive skin or tissue is to light touch by pressing a series of calibrated filaments of increasing stiffness until the subject withdraws or reports sensation. Investors should care because this common pain-sensitivity test is used in preclinical and clinical trials to show whether a drug or device reduces touch-evoked pain; consistent, well-controlled results can influence efficacy claims, regulatory review, and market prospects.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains forward-looking statements about PRF’s expectations, beliefs and intentions"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

PRF Technologies Reports Expanded Preclinical Results for PRF-110 in

Head-to-Head Comparison with Approved Benchmark

 

Additional data reported by an independent research firm show comparable analgesic efficacy to

ZYNRELEF alongside slower absorption and enhanced local tissue retention, reinforcing PRF-110’s

potential as a long-acting, single-administration post-operative analgesic

 

Tel Aviv – June 25, 2026 — PRF Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: PRFX) (“PRF” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage specialty pharmaceutical company focused on reformulating established therapeutics for post-operative pain management, today announced expanded results from its previously reported preclinical study directly comparing its lead product candidate, PRF-110, to ZYNRELEF® (bupivacaine and meloxicam extended-release solution), an approved extended-release product used as a benchmark in the study. The expanded results characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and tissue-distribution properties of PRF-110 alongside the analgesic efficacy data previously announced.

 

PRF-110 is a proprietary, oil-based, viscous, clear extended-release formulation of ropivacaine designed to be deposited directly into the surgical wound bed prior to closure. The product candidate is being developed to provide prolonged local analgesia following surgery through a single administration at the surgical site, with the goal of reducing the use of opioids for post-surgical pain.

 

The study was conducted in a validated porcine post-operative pain model, using von Frey methodology, to assess both analgesic efficacy and PK properties of the two extended-release formulations.

 

Key Findings

 

Comparable analgesic efficacy: PRF-110 and ZYNRELEF demonstrated similar reductions in mechanical sensitivity, as measured by the von Frey test, indicating comparable pain-relief performance.

 

Favorable pharmacokinetic profile: PRF-110 exhibited a slower absorption rate relative to ZYNRELEF, suggesting a more gradual release of ropivacaine at the site of administration.

 

Enhanced tissue retention: PRF-110 showed increased retention in local tissue along with higher local tissue exposure (Cmax), supporting prolonged availability of the active compound at the target site.

 

Sustained exposure: Both formulations demonstrated sustained systemic and local drug levels, reinforcing their potential as long-acting analgesic solutions.

 

“These expanded findings reinforce our confidence in PRF-110 as a differentiated, long-acting solution for post-operative pain management,” said Efi Cohen-Arazi, Chief Executive Officer of PRF Technologies. “Its pharmacokinetic profile—characterized by slower absorption and enhanced local tissue retention—combined with analgesic efficacy comparable to an approved benchmark, potentially positions PRF-110 to address a significant unmet need in improving post-surgical recovery and patient comfort.”

 

“These results further strengthen the growing body of evidence supporting PRF-110,” Mr. Cohen-Arazi added. “We remain focused on advancing the program and unlocking its full clinical and commercial potential.”

 

 

PRF plans to continue advancing PRF-110 through additional studies to further validate its safety, efficacy and clinical utility across broader surgical settings.
