Daring to be different

Daré Bioscience® (NASDAQ: DARE) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to the advancement of innovative products for women's health. With eight potentially first-in-class women’s health products in development, we are committed to bring to market differentiated products designed to expand treatment options, improve outcomes, and facilitate a better quality of life for women.

Vaginal drug delivery is often the optimum delivery approach to achieve these objectives, and IVR technology has become one of our preferred investigational platforms. Our portfolio features innovative IVR technologies including our non-hormonal contraceptive Ovaprene®, which we believe has the potential to disrupt the contraceptive landscape by providing protection for one month, without the use hormones, and our suite of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) matrixed IVRs that can provide flexibility in terms of drug loading, drug delivery, and modulation of release rates across a wide array of molecules, hormones, peptides and proteins, facilitating new indications and applications of the technology.

Daré’s EVA IVR technology includes DARE-HRT1 for dual hormone replacement as a potential treatment for the vasomotor symptoms of menopause and DARE-FRT1 for vaginal progesterone delivery in support of fertility and the prevention of pre-term birth. In addition to its novel IVR technologies, Daré is developing a topical formulation of sildenafil, the active ingredient in the blockbuster product Viagra®, for the treatment of female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD) as well as a novel vaginal formulation of the selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) tamoxifen to address and alleviate the symptoms of vulvar vaginal atrophy (VVA) for women diagnosed with and treated for hormone-receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer.
