Item 8.01. Other Events

On May 17, 2019, Agile Therapeutics, Inc. (“Agile”) announced it has resubmitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) the New Drug Application (“NDA”) for its lead product candidate, Twirla®, an investigational low-dose combined hormonal contraceptive patch (AG200-15). Agile resubmitted the NDA in response to a December 2017 Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) from the FDA, which identified deficiencies relating to (i) quality control adhesion test methods for the Twirla manufacturing process, (ii) observations identified during an inspection of a facility of our third-party manufacturer for the Twirla NDA that must be resolved, and (iii) questions on the in vivo adhesion properties of Twirla and their potential relationship to the SECURE clinical trial results. The resubmitted NDA includes the results from a comparative wear study that was conducted at the request of the FDA to address the FDA’s questions on in vivo adhesion, additional information on the Company’s manufacturing process, and other analyses responding to the 2017 CRL.

A copy of Agile’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
