Successful results from CSD500 condom study
Futura Medical plc (AIM: FUM), the pharmaceutical group that develops innovative
products for the consumer healthcare market, is pleased to announce positive
results from a user study of CSD500, Futura's novel product to help men maintain
a full erection when wearing a condom. The study, equally funded by Futura and
its marketing and distribution partner SSL International plc (SSL), successfully
met its primary endpoint of demonstrating a firmer erection through the use of
the CSD500 condom compared with a standard condom. This result was highly
statistically significant.
The study's secondary endpoints of increased penile size and a longer-lasting
sexual experience also revealed positive, statistically significant data. These
results from the double-blind, randomised, cross-over study will complete the
regulatory package for CSD500.
The study included 108 healthy couples, the men of which had at some time
experienced a loss or partial loss of erection whilst using standard condoms. A
good safety and tolerability profile was reported for CSD500.
James Barder, Futura's Chief Executive, said: 'I am delighted by these highly
statistically significant study results, which give us confidence that the
CSD500 product will gain marketing approval and, once launched, be a commercial
success. We look forward to continuing to work closely with SSL.'
