The opioid crisis may not be front and center anymore, but it's raging still. A major problem is that overdose-reversal drugs don't last long enough to help users who opt out of hospital treatment after they are revived. Elysium Therapeutics Inc. CEO Greg Sturmer talks with Randy Osborne about his firm's candidate for a solution to the medical and societal problem. The NIH – which has been helpful to Elysium since the company's founding – the FDA, and others are working to advance a longer-lasting reversal agent. Experiments already done with approved reversers, as well as computer modeling that's been used by regulators previously, will help in the push, Sturmer said.
