Lipocine Shares Plumb New Lows After Postpartum Depression Study Failure

Dow Jones

Apr 02

By Colin Kellaher

Lipocine shares collapsed Thursday after the biopharmaceutical company's LPCN 1154 drug candidate failed in a late-stage study in postpartum depression.

Shares of the Salt Lake City, Utah, company were recently changing hands at $1.94, down 79%, after touching an all-time low of $1.81 earlier in the session.

Lipocine said LPCN 1154 missed the primary endpoint of the Phase 3 study, failing to show a statistically significant reduction in a key measure of the severity of depression compared with placebo at hour 60.

Lipocine said it plans to preserve capital and evaluate all options available to the company going forward.
