2401 is an oral formulation of a proprietary combination of anabolic androgen receptor agonist and -alpha tocopherol, an antioxidant
metabolic modifier. Data from preclinical and clinical studies support the potential of LPCN 2401 in gaining lean mass while losing fat
mass. As adjunct therapy to incretin mimetics, LPCN 2401 has potential to attenuate weight rebound, ameliorate loss of muscle mass, improve
muscle quality and functionality, amplify fat mass loss with improved body composition, and potential to maintain weight, prevent "fat
overshoot," and accelerate muscle rebound post incretin mimetic discontinuation.
is a biopharmaceutical company leveraging its proprietary technology platform to augment therapeutics through effective oral delivery
to develop differentiated products. Lipocine has drug candidates in development as well as drug candidates for which we are exploring
partnerships. Our drug candidates represent enablement of differentiated, patient friendly oral delivery options for favorable benefit
to risk profile which target large addressable markets with significant unmet medical needs.
clinical development candidates include: LPCN 1154, an oral candidate for the potential treatment of postpartum depression; LPCN
2101, an oral candidate for the potential treatment of epilepsy; LPCN 2203, an oral candidate targeted for the management of
essential tremor; LPCN 2401, an oral candidate for use as an adjunct therapy to incretin mimetics or as an aid for improved body
composition in chronic weight management; and LPCN 1148, an oral candidate for the management of symptoms associated with liver
cirrhosis. Lipocine is exploring partnering opportunities for LPCN 1107, our candidate for prevention of preterm birth, LPCN 1154,
for rapid relief of postpartum depression, LPCN 2401 for chronic weight management, LPCN 1148 for the management of decompensated
cirrhosis, and LPCN 1144, our candidate for treatment of non-cirrhotic NASH. TLANDO, a novel oral prodrug of testosterone containing
