ANAHEIM, CA – 
Dr. Neutel has authored numerous abstracts, journal articles and book chapters. He has conducted extensive research in such disciplines as cardiovascular medicine, endocrinology, and central nervous system disorders, with special attention to the pharmacotherapy of the diseases in these areas.
Brady Granier, President and Director of BioCorRx Inc. and CEO of BioCorRx Pharmaceuticals Inc., stated, “The selection of OCRC as the clinical trial site for our first-in-human clinical trial of BICX104 marks another major milestone for our Company. We believe OCRC is the perfect research partner as they have participated in over 400 clinical trials, advancing the development of many new treatments. We look forward to working with Dr. Neutel, as he brings extensive experience serving the biopharmaceutical industry in the areas of clinical and academic research and he has been the principal investigator on other clinical trials involving implants. We expect to begin the trial as soon as clinical samples are ready for release and when subjects for the study are recruited and screened.”
BICX104 is a biodegradable, long-acting subcutaneous pellet of naltrexone being developed in collaboration with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), under RFA DA-19-002, “Development of Medications to Prevent and Treat Opioid Use Disorders and Overdose (UG3/UH3) (Clinical Trial Optional).” The Company had a previous pre-IND meeting with the FDA, at which time the FDA deemed the 505(b)(2) abbreviated pathway acceptable, as well the opportunity to seek eventual dual indication on the product for OUD and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
