Agile Therapeutics, Inc. is a healthcare company, which engages in the development and commercialization of transdermal patches. The company is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey and currently employs 19 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2014-05-22. Its product and product candidates are designed to provide women with contraceptive options that offer freedom from taking a daily pill, without committing to a longer-acting method. Its initial product, Twirla, (levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol), a transdermal system, is a non-daily prescription contraceptive. Twirla is based on its proprietary transdermal patch technology, called Skinfusion, which is designed to allow drug delivery through the skin. Twirla (levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol) transdermal system is a once-weekly combined hormonal contraceptive (CHC) patch that contains the active ingredients levonorgestrel (LNG), a type of progestin, and ethinyl estradiol (EE), a type of estrogen. Its potential product pipeline consists of two types of product candidates: a progestin-only (P-only) contraceptive patch and potential Twirla line extensions.
