New York, April 18, 2024 - PRISM MarketView - Shares in Femasys Inc. (Nasdaq: FEMY) rose 2.31% in morning trading on Thursday after the company announced that its CEO and Founder, Kathy Lee-Sepsick, has met with several members of Congress to discuss the current women’s healthcare landscape.
In mid-March President Biden released an executive order calling for a $200 million investment in research for women’s health and a coordinated approach from more than 20 federal government agencies. Ms. Lee-Sepsick’s meetings will raise awareness of Femasys and the status of its reproductive products in light of this women’s health initiative by the White House.
“Women’s health remains vastly underserved and underfunded but we are encouraged by the interest our solutions have received during recent meetings with members of Congress. I am proud to be a female-founder and to lead Femasys as we develop revolutionary technologies that provide a continuum of care that are safe, affordable and accessible to women. It is our goal to empower women throughout their reproductive journey by delivering innovative options to meet their needs.”
CEO and Founder, Kathy Lee-Sepsick
Femasys is marketing four commercially-available products including FemaSeed®, FDA-cleared, intratubal insemination, FemVue®, a contrast-generating device, FemCath®, a selective delivery catheter, and FemCerv®, an endocervical tissue sampler. The company also has FemBloc®, a permanent form of birth control in late-stage clinical development.
Femasys recently announced topline data from its FemaSeed pivotal trial, which investigated FemaSeed in women with a variety of infertility factors with the primary efficacy analysis focused on the male factor infertility. FemaSeed demonstrated 24% of women became pregnant after FemaSeed with male factor, and the majority of women who became pregnant did so after the first FemaSeed procedure.
