Opioids are a class of drugs that include prescription pain relievers like oxycodone, hydrocodone, morphine, and fentanyl, as well as illegal drugs like heroin. They work by binding to receptors in the brain to reduce pain, but they also produce feelings of euphoria, which can lead to misuse and addiction.
The opioid epidemic refers to the rapid increase in the use of prescription and non-prescription opioid drugs in the U.S. and other countries. This crisis has led to a significant rise in addiction, overdose deaths, and public health challenges.
Phoenix PharmaLabs was founded by Dr. John Lawson, a medicinal chemist who first discovered a new family of opioid molecules during his time at the Stanford Research Institute (now SRI International). Years later, while working as a Visiting Scientist at Utah State University, he established the company in Utah to advance the development of these promising compounds.

Our mission is to transform lives by developing potent, safe, and non-addictive pain treatments. We are dedicated to advancing science-backed therapies that address the widespread challenges of pain, addiction, and PTSD with care, innovation, and integrity.
PPL-138 is being developed to treat pain, addiction, and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Phoenix PharmaLabs is funded through a combination of competitive government grants and private investment. The company has received over $12 million in non-dilutive funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Department of Defense (DoD), recognizing the scientific merit and potential impact of its compounds. This support has been supplemented by approximately $10 million in private equity investment, including a $2 million online public offering under SEC Rule CF that was oversubscribed. Phoenix is actively pursuing additional grant opportunities and private funding to support the continued development of its therapies.
The market opportunity for Phoenix PharmaLabs is substantial. The global opioid market is estimated at $30 billion and continues to grow. However, the potential for PPL-138 extends well beyond this, as millions of people worldwide suffer from severe pain without access to adequate treatment due to concerns about addiction.
