Evofem announces license and supply agreement with Windtree Therapeutics

Evofem Biosciences (EVFM) announced that it has entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Windtree Therapeutics (WINT), under which Windtree will be Evofem’s sourcing partner for PHEXXI, or lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate. This FDA-approved hormone-free contraceptive vaginal gel is applied 0 to 60 minutes before each act of intercourse. It prevents pregnancy by maintaining the normal vaginal biome which has a slightly acidic pH that is inhospitable to sperm. Under the L&S Agreement, Windtree will leverage its manufacturing contacts to reduce the cost to manufacture PHEXXI. Evofem expects PHEXXI COGS will decrease by 55% to 60% from current levels. Furthermore, there will be no cost to Evofem for the tech transfer to the new manufacturer engaged by Windtree. Evofem maintains ownership of the asset and continues to commercialize PHEXXI in the United States through its dedicated sales team and internationally through strategic partnerships, including its July 2024 license agreement with Emirati pharmaceutical company Pharma 1 Drug Store, which plans to launch the hormone-free contraceptive vaginal gel in the UAE following approval by the Emirates Drug Establishment.
