TEL AVIV, Israel, September 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Kitov Pharmaceuticals Holdings Ltd. (NASDAQ/TASE: KTOV), an innovative biopharmaceutical company focused on late stage drug development, will present data from a U.S. Market Assessment of its patented lead drug candidate KIT-302 at the 18th Annual Rodman & Renshaw Global Investment Conference.  The conference is being held during September 11-13, 2016, at the Lotte New York Palace Hotel in New York City.

KIT-302 simultaneously treats pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA) and treats hypertension, which is a common side effect of certain stand-alone drugs that treat osteoarthritis pain. KIT-302 is comprised of two U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drugs, celecoxib (the active ingredient in Pfizer's Celebrex®), for the treatment of pain caused by osteoarthritis and amlodipine besylate (the active ingredient in Pfizer's Norvasc®), a drug designed to treat hypertension. Kitov expects to submit a New Drug Application for KIT-302, which successfully completed a pivotal Phase III trial, with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration within six months.

The U.S. Market Assessment included primary and secondary research, in which more than 125 physicians (general practitioners, internists, pain specialists, rheumatologists, and orthopedic surgeons) were surveyed, and one-on-one interviews conducted with physicians (key opinion leaders and high volume prescribers), as well as with Pharmacy Benefit Managers whose client organizations insure approximately 150 million covered lives.

Key data were obtained on the usage of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in general, and of celecoxib in particular, by the respondents' OA patients, including measures such as average duration of celecoxib therapy, and potential prescribing behavior and adoption for KIT-302.

J. Paul Waymack, M.D., Sc.D., the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Medical Officer of Kitov, will provide an overview of the Company's business and the results of the U.S. Market Assessment during a live presentation at the Rodman & Renshaw conference. Dr. Waymack, Mr. Isaac Israel, Chief Executive Officer, and Dr. Gil Ben-Menachem, VP of Business Development of Kitov, will be available to participate in one-on-one meetings with registered attendees of the conference.
