Clinical Validation

LIONESS™ was successfully tested in a safety & feasibility pilot clinical trial among pregnant women at high risk of preterm birth

The results were very promising, with a high rate of term births and no significant side-effects, providing PregnanTech with the validation to proceed to the next stage of clinical studies

The results of PregnanTech’s pilot study were published in the
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology
