China Aoxing Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. (OTCBB: CAXG) ("China Aoxing"), a pharmaceutical company specializing in research, development, manufacturing and distribution of narcotic and pain-management products, today announced that it completed Phase III clinical study for Tilidine tablets, a novel drug in China to treat acute and chronic moderate to severe pain, including post-operative and cancer pain in adult patients. The drug is designated as a Class III New Medicine with approximately at least four-year market exclusivity protection upon marketing clearance by the China SFDA.

"Reaching this pivotal milestone is an important event for the development of our Tilidine franchise, and will enable a complete analysis of the trial results and a timely submission of new drug application (NDA) to the China SFDA. We believe that Tilidine has the potential to become a major player in the underserved pain market in China," said Mr. Zhenjiang Yue, CEO and Chairman of China Aoxing. "Also, we are looking forward to reporting the top-line results in the coming weeks."

The Phase III clinical study was a multi-center, randomized, double-blind and active-control study which covers two pivotal trials, (1) a trial of 200 patients with post-operative pain for the indication of acute moderate to severe pain; (2) a trial of 120 patients with cancer pain for the indication of chronic moderate to severe pain. The study was conducted at 9 metropolitan hospitals in China. The primary endpoints used to evaluate the efficacy were the sum of pain score differences, measured by Pain Intensity Difference (PID). The size of the trials per protocol was not powered to achieve statistical significance between the treatment arms versus control arms.

In China it is estimated that there are at least 50 million operation procedures performed in hospital and clinical centers every year, and 50% of these procedures require acute post-operative pain treatment. On the other hand there are estimated to be over 2.2 million newly diagnosed cancer patients every year, and 60% of them are unable to receive necessary pain management under current treatment paradigm. Cancer has become the No. 1 cause and attribute to 20% of adult death in China based on the New England Journal of Medicine.
