Animal Exploitation
Since Jan 3, 2022

Dare Bioscience, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on women's health. Its business model inherently involves animal testing as a standard component of preclinical drug development and regulatory compliance. The company’s own public statements confirm this reliance, noting that achieving predictable and effective results for its products requires such testing. As a pharmaceutical developer, its operations are built on the commercial exploitation of animals for research purposes, placing it under this broad exclusion category.

Animal Testing & Research
Since Jul 28, 2021

Daré Bioscience, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on women's health. Its product development pipeline for novel intravaginal rings and other drug candidates requires animal testing to generate the preclinical safety data necessary for regulatory submissions to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The company explicitly states that an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) application must be supported by appropriate data, including animal testing results, to demonstrate it is safe to proceed to human trials. This reliance on animal models is a standard, required step in the pharmaceutical development process for securing FDA approval.

Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.

This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
