Q&A Excerpt:
Q: Investorideas.com
Your company just recently announced that the Phase III LibiGel (testosterone gel) cardiovascular and breast cancer safety study will continue without modifications and will continue to enroll new subjects as a result of the fourth unblinded review of adverse events by its independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC). Can you give investors insight into the study, the subjects and the type of data collected?
A: Stephen M. Simes, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioSante Pharmaceuticals
Yes. We currently are conducting three Phase III LibiGel clinical studies, one of which is a very important cardiovascular events and breast cancer safety study to which you refer. We now have enrolled over 2,500 women into this study and to date the safety of LibiGel looks excellent. The rate of cardiovascular events that have been reported in the study is significantly lower than was predicted for this population of women, and the rate of breast cancer reported is close to predicted. Our objective is to show the safety of LibiGel in the treatment of female sexual dysfunction for which there is no FDA approved product today. We believe we are doing that.
