Evofem's lead product candidate, Amphora® (L-lactic acid, citric acid, and potassium bitartrate) vaginal gel, is being studied as a non-hormonal, on-demand vaginal contraceptive and for the prevention of certain sexually transmitted infections.
The Company expects to report top-line data by year-end 2018 from its confirmatory Phase 3 clinical trial of Amphora for contraception. Assuming positive results, Evofem expects to re-submit the Amphora New Drug Application (NDA) in the first half of 2019 which, if approved by the FDA, would position the Company to commercialize Amphora as the first and only hormone-free, on-demand contraceptive drug in early 2020.
A Phase 2b clinical trial of Amphora for the prevention of urogenital acquisition of Chlamydia trachomatis (primary endpoint) and Neisseria gonorrhea in women is also underway.
