Daré rises on positive data from early-to-mid-stage trial of intravaginal ring to treat menopause symptoms

Daré Bioscience (NASDAQ:DARE) is trading 6.5% higher after the company announced positive data from its Phase 1/2 clinical trial of investigational intravaginal ring, DARE-HRT1, to treat the vasomotor symptoms and genitourinary syndrome associated with menopause. The drug is designed to deliver bio-identical 17β-estradiol and bio-identical progesterone continuously over a 28-day period as part of a hormone therapy regimen. The topline data from the study showed improvement in both vasomotor symptoms as well as vaginal symptoms of menopause. The primary objective or the main goal of the study was to demonstrate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of two different dose combinations over 12 weeks of use. The company said the levels of estradiol released from both the lower and higher dose formulation of DARE-HRT1 evaluated in the study achieved statistically significant improvement. Menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes and night sweats, were reduced compared with baseline in both DARE-HRT1 dose groups. The topline PK data from the study will be available later in Q4.
