QuatRx Pharmaceuticals Announces Positive Phase 3 Results for Study of Ophena(TM) (ospemifene) to Treat Postmenopausal Vaginal Syndrome
Date:1/3/2008

ow thinner and to lose elasticity, a condition known as atrophy. Dryness and irritation associated with reductions in vaginal secretions often cause pain or bleeding during sexual intercourse. The decline in estrogen also contributes to an increase in vaginal pH, creating an environment more susceptible to infection. It is estimated that up to 40% of post-menopausal women have symptoms of PVS. Current prescription treatments approved for this condition all contain estrogen, administered either orally or locally in the vagina. SERMs that are currently approved and marketed in the United States have not been shown to have beneficial effects on vaginal tissue and none are approved for use in treating this condition.
