SAN DIEGO, Aug. 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Dar\u00e9 Bioscience, Inc. (NASDAQ: DARE), a purpose-driven health biotech company solely focused on closing the gap in women’s health between promising science and real-world solutions, today announced that it received a new notice of award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the amount of approximately $908,000 to advance the Company\u2019s DARE-PTB2 program for the prevention of preterm birth. The notice of award also includes recommended future-year support of approximately $1.3 million for completion of initial preclinical pharmacokinetic, safety, and toxicity studies.<\/p>\n

DARE-PTB2 is an early-stage investigational program focused on developing a potential new therapeutic approach for the prevention of idiopathic preterm birth. The program aims to address a significant unmet medical need, as preterm birth remains a leading cause of infant morbidity and mortality worldwide and there are no FDA-approved therapeutic options available to reduce the risk of preterm birth.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful for the continued support from the NIH and NICHD for the DARE-PTB2 program and for their recognition of the importance of developing new approaches to address preterm birth. This new award provides important non-dilutive funding to support the continued advancement of DARE-PTB2 and reflects our strategy of leveraging non-dilutive funding opportunities to advance innovative programs addressing significant unmet needs in women\u2019s health,\u201d said Sabrina Martucci Johnson, President and CEO of Dar\u00e9 Bioscience.<\/p>\n

The DARE-PTB2 program builds on research previously supported by NICHD. In July 2023, Dar\u00e9 received a notice of award from NICHD of approximately $400,000 to support preclinical development of a potential new therapeutic for the prevention of idiopathic preterm birth. The funding supported proof-of-concept target validation studies conducted in collaboration with the University of South Florida.<\/p>\n

\u201cContinued support from the NIH enables us to advance the scientific foundation of the DARE-PTB2 program and further evaluate a potential new therapeutic approach to addressing preterm birth,\u201d said David Friend, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Dar\u00e9 Bioscience. \u201cWe appreciate the NICHD\u2019s continued commitment to this important area of research and to the development of innovative solutions for women and their babies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n About DARE-PTB2<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

DARE-PTB2 is an early-stage, investigational program for the development of a therapeutic treatment to prevent idiopathic preterm birth. The program is focused on a novel therapeutic approach intended to address biological mechanisms associated with preterm birth.<\/p>\n

Preterm birth, defined as birth before 37 weeks of pregnancy have been completed, is a significant global health challenge and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality among infants. Preterm birth can result from a range of underlying causes, and there remains a significant need for therapeutic approaches to reduce the risk of preterm delivery.<\/p>\n
