SciSparc Issued Canadian Patent for Opioids Reduction Use in Pain Management Technology

TEL AVIV, Israel, March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SciSparc Ltd. (Nasdaq: SPRC) ("Company" or "SciSparc"), a specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of therapies to treat disorders and rare diseases of the central nervous system, announced today its had been received patent approval for its proprietary combination of opioids and n-acylethanolamines for pain treatment (the “Patent”).

The Patent has been granted by the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, the government agency in Canada that administers intellectual property rights and legislation for patents.

According to a report by Grand View Research, the global opioid market was valued at $22.8 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 1.4% from 2023 to 2030. The increasing rate of regulatory approvals and the launch of new opioid medicines to treat patients with chronic pain are the factors expected to drive market growth.

"With the Canadian patent approval for our opioid reduction technology, SciSparc continues to build on global recognition of its innovations and breakthrough technologies. We are all aware of how effective opiates are in relieving pain, but also for their addictive influence. We believe that our technology will potentially make it possible to improve the therapeutic effect of opiates in lower doses, thereby reducing their addictive potential. Our technology represents hope for safer and more effective pain management strategies worldwide," said SciSparc’s Chief Executive Officer, Oz Adler.
