Copenhagen, Denmark – 31 October 2025 – Cessatech A/S (“Cessatech” or “the Company”) today announces the successful completion of the technology transfer of CT001, marking a significant step towards making the product available to the first hospitals in the United States for acute pain management in children.
This milestone represents an important advancement in Cessatech’s mission to deliver innovative treatments that address unmet medical needs in paediatric care. The Company is collaborating closely with Ventis Pharma as its commercial partner and STAQ Pharma as the manufacturing partner to bring CT001 to the US market.
Finalisation of marketing and training materials is currently underway, and CT001 is expected to become available to the first US hospitals in the coming months.
In parallel, CT001 is being evaluated by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) through a Paediatric-Use Marketing Authorisation (PUMA) application - a dedicated regulatory pathway for medicines intended specifically for use in children. CT001 is being developed for the management of acute pain in children aged 1–17 years, with the aim of providing a safe, effective, and consistent treatment option where current alternatives remain limited.

“Our collaboration with STAQ Pharma marks an important step in bringing CT001 to patients in the United States. STAQ Pharma’s strong expertise in sterile manufacturing ensures a high-quality product for hospitals, and with marketing and training materials now being finalised, we are excited to soon make CT001 available for children in need of better pain management options."
