Lipocine Inc. LPCN, a specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced positive top-line efficacy results from its ongoing Study of Oral Androgen Replacement ("SOAR") pivotal Phase 3 clinical study (http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT02081300) evaluating efficacy and safety of LPCN 1021, an Oral Testosterone product, in hypogonadal men with low testosterone ("Low T"). Overall, the study demonstrated positive results with respect to the trial's primary efficacy endpoint with no serious adverse events. Lipocine continues to expect to file a New Drug Application ("NDA") with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") in the second half of 2015.
"We are extremely pleased with the robustness of the top-line results from this study which are consistent with the existing regulatory paradigm for Testosterone Replacement Therapy ("TRT") product approvals. We believe that LPCN 1021 represents a differentiated TRT for treating hypogonadism in men with the potential to both improve patient compliance and overcome inadvertent testosterone transference risk," said Dr. Mahesh Patel, Chairman, President and CEO of Lipocine Inc. Dr. Patel further stated, "We look forward to reporting additional safety results from this ongoing study."
