"LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill. - October 4, 2011 (Investorideas.com newswire) - BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPAX) today announced completion of its two pivotal LibiGel (testosterone gel) efficacy trials, required for the company's anticipated LibiGel new drug application (NDA).

LibiGel is in development for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD), specifically, hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in menopausal women, for which there is no FDA-approved product.
Data are being collected from the 141 investigative sites in the U.S. and Canada that participated in the two trials, and BioSante expects to announce top-line LibiGel efficacy results during this quarter. Both efficacy trials were conducted according to an FDA-agreed special protocol assessment (SPA). The third and last pivotal study for the LibiGel clinical development program is the ongoing LibiGel Phase III cardiovascular and breast cancer safety study, which has completed enrollment of 3,656 subjects. The primary analysis of safety data is targeted for third quarter of 2012. The LibiGel NDA submission will include data from the two efficacy trials as well as the safety study and is targeted for the fourth quarter of 2012."
