Titan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company based in San Francisco, CA, developing proprietary therapeutics primarily for treating central nervous system ("CNS") disorders. In September 2018, Titan Pharmaceuticals underwent an IPO wherein it raised $9.5 million in gross proceeds.[3] In the same month, it also posted approximately $1.7 million in revenue, in large part drawn from its licensing for its European intellectual property rights for Probuphine to the Italian pharmaceutical company Molteni - a leading European opioid manufacturer and also a subsidiary of the German Pharmaceutical juggernaut Merck Group.[2][4]

Titan's principal asset is Probuphine,[5][6] a slow-release implant formulation of buprenorphine[7] for the treatment of opioid addiction or chronic pain. FDA Approval was granted on 26 May 2016.[8] It was licensed to Braeburn Pharmaceuticals for marketing and commercialization.[6]
