About IVIX:

IVIX, a Russian--incorporated company, was formed in 2012 and since that time has sought to develop and subsequently commercialize a proprietary drug candidate, BP-101 (known as "Libicore"), for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction. Libicore is a novel synthetic peptide, administered through a nasal spray. Clinical studies completed to-date have demonstrated statistically significant efficacy in the treatment of a major form of female sexual dysfunction. So far, IVIX has reached and completed Phase III clinical studies in Russia for Libicore. It now intends to seek approval for the marketing of Libicore in the Russian market, as well seek to expand its use internationally.
