Bassam Damaj, PhD., Chief Executive Officer of Apricus Biosciences, Inc. ("Apricus Bio") (Nasdaq:APRI) (http://www.apricusbio.com) announced today that he will discuss plans for the commercialization of Vitaros®, the Company's topical erectile dysfunction drug, during his presentation at the Jefferies 2011 Global Healthcare Conference. Dr. Damaj's presentation date and time have been changed, and will now take place on June 8, 2011 at 2:00pm, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York.
Vitaros® is approved for sale in Canada and is expected to be on the market in that country during the second half of 2011. Dr. Damaj will also review the Company's recent marketing application filing for Vitaros® in Europe, as well as expectations for filing a marketing application in Switzerland. Vitaros® utilizes Apricus Bio's NexACT® drug delivery technology, which enables the rapid absorption of various active pharmaceutical ingredients through the skin, with the goal of improving patient outcomes and reducing side effects.
