SAN DIEGO, June 01, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Daré Bioscience, Inc., a privately-held, clinical-stage healthcare company advancing products for women's reproductive health, today announced that Sabrina Martucci Johnson, Daré Founder and CEO, will present at the LD Micro Invitational Conference on Wednesday, June 7, 2017, at 7:30 a.m. PST at the Luxe Sunset Bel Air Hotel in Los Angeles, California.
“Daré’s product candidate, Ovaprene®, is a clinical stage, non-hormonal contraceptive ring for monthly use,” said Ms. Johnson. “Since the approval of the birth control pill by the FDA in 1960, most innovation has focused on hormones. If approved, Ovaprene would address an unmet need because it is a non-hormonal monthly option. The only contraceptive ring on the market is a hormonal contraceptive ring, NuvaRing®, with 2016 sales of $777 million.”
