NEW YORK, March 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers of Agile Therapeutics, Inc. securities (NASDAQ: AGRX) from March 9, 2016 through January 3, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period").

NO CLASS HAS YET BEEN CERTIFIED IN THE ABOVE ACTION. UNTIL A CLASS IS CERTIFIED, YOU ARE NOT REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL UNLESS YOU RETAIN ONE. YOU MAY ALSO REMAIN AN ABSENT CLASS MEMBER AND DO NOTHING AT THIS POINT. YOU MAY RETAIN COUNSEL OF YOUR CHOICE.

According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period defendants issued materially false and misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Twirla contraceptive patch had an efficacy rating that fell below peer group standards; (2) over half of patients in its "Secure" Phase 3 Study discontinued the study early; (3) the Twirla patch therefore allegedly had a slight chance of FDA approval; and (4) as a result, defendants' positive statements about Agile Therapeutics' business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than March 7, 2017. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
