The company recently received an FDA-approved Investigational Device Exemption to conduct a pivotal clinical study to evaluate Ovaprene’s effectiveness and safety over 12 months.

The Phase 1 trial, recently published in Climacteric, demonstrated that DARE-HRT1 was well-tolerated by approximately 30 healthy postmenopausal women. The results support the safety and acceptability of this innovative hormone therapy, which is designed to improve medication compliance and user experience. Daré intends to utilize existing data and pursue the FDA's 505(b)(2) approval pathway for market entry in the U.S.
