Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On October 24, 2018 Agile Therapeutics, Inc. (“Agile”) a women’s healthcare company, announced an oral presentation regarding predictors of pregnancy in the Phase 3 SECURE study of the investigational low-dose, once-weekly contraceptive patch, AG200-15 (Twirla®). Thomas D. Kimble, MD, Associate Dean and Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Eastern Virginia Medical School, presented the new analyses at the North American Forum on Family Planning (NAFFP) on October 20, 2018 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The presentation, entitled Body Mass Index and Weight are Predictors of Pregnancy in a Phase 3 Multicenter Contraceptive Efficacy Study of AG200-15, a Low-Dose Combination Hormonal Contraceptive Patch, included detailed findings of statistical modeling performed to identify variables predictive of pregnancy in the SECURE study. The abstract is published in the October 2018 issue of Contraception.

 

The SECURE clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of AG200-15, also known as Twirla (levonorgestrel/ethinyl estradiol), in a representative population of women seeking birth control.  SECURE was a 1-year, multicenter, single-arm, open-label trial in 2032 healthy women aged 18 and over, at 102 experienced investigative sites across the United States.

 

Copies of Agile’s press release, slides from Agile’s presentation, and the abstract are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, and 99.3 respectively and are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
