(NASDAQ: DARE), a leader in women’s health innovation, and its collaborator Strategic Science & Technologies, LLC (SST), a Cambridge, MA based novel topical drug delivery company, today announced additional positive data from the exploratory Phase 2b RESPOND study evaluating topical Sildenafil Cream, 3.6% (Sildenafil Cream) as a treatment for female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD). Additional data reported today support continued clinical development of Sildenafil Cream to evaluate its potential to treat FSAD and/or female sexual interest/arousal disorder (FSIAD). Specifically, an exploratory endpoint regarding sexual desire demonstrated a statistically significant improvement from baseline to the 8-week mark after randomization in women in the intent to treat (ITT) population who used Sildenafil Cream compared to placebo, at P value = 0.022. The improvement in sexual desire at the 8-week mark compared to baseline in the Sildenafil Cream ITT group persisted through 12 weeks post-randomization (end of study). “In this study, improvement was seen in arousal and orgasm, as well as sexual desire. Such changes are consistent with those seen in men treated for erectile dysfunction. Namely, improve one’s arousal, and ultimately orgasm, and desire increases as well. An FDA-approved option like this for women would provide improvements across the sexual experience continuum, as men have had for over 25 years,” commented James A. Simon.
