SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ferring Pharmaceuticals will present pivotal Phase 3 efficacy and safety data from its EXPEDITE* study for its investigational controlled release misoprostol vaginal insert (MVI) at the 33rd annual meeting of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) in San Francisco, February 11 - 16.

*The EXPEDITE Study: A Phase 3, double blind, randomized, multicenter study of exogenous prostaglandin comparing the efficacy and safety of the misoprostol vaginal insert (MVI) 200 mcg to the dinoprostone vaginal insert for reducing time to vaginal delivery in pregnant women at term.
