FREEHOLD, N.J., Nov. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chromocell Therapeutics Corporation, (NYSE American: CHRO), a pioneer in the development of non-opioid pain treatment therapeutics, today announced that on November 18, 2024 it had changed its name to Channel Therapeutics Corporation (“Channel” or the “Company”), along with reincorporating in the State of Nevada. The Company believes the name change better reflects its focus on developing therapeutics based on sodium channel modulation and blockade for the treatment of pain.
“The specific sodium channel we are targeting, NaV1.7, is the most genetically validated of the different sodium channels and we have demonstrated efficacy in a broad array of animal models. We believe the name change better reflects our multi-pronged approach towards targeting pain reduction, said Frank Knuettel II, CEO of Channel.
“Additionally, our team continues to make progress across our multiple non-opioid based pain therapeutic programs, and we eagerly look forward to sharing the efficacy results for both of the eye pain and depot programs as they could be important milestones in Channel Therapeutics’ growth and valuation,” concluded Knuettel.
Commensurate with the change in the Company’s new name, Channel has also reincorporated in the State of Nevada, by way of a merger into a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary. The Company expects to experience lower tax rates and more flexibility in its strategic and licensing pursuits.
