Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Announces Investigation of BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Date:2/9/2012

NEW YORK, Feb. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("BioSante" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: BPAX).

On December 14, 2011, BioSante issued a press release disclosing for the first time that LibiGel failed to yield positive results in large-scale efficacy tests designed by the Company.  According to study results, women treated with LibiGel did not experience statistically significant increases in either total satisfying sexual encounters or sexual desire.  On this news, shares of BioSante declined by over 75% of their value.  After t
