LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In a widely cited in-vivo model of atopic dermatitis, Turn Therapeutics' atopic dermatitis candidate showed a dramatic reduction in disease severity versus placebo.
At the conclusion of a seven-day disease induction, the mean severity score across all groups was 3.3 on the ISGA scale, an atopic dermatitis disease assessment that ranges from 0, or completely clear, to 4, or severe eczema.
After seven days of treatment, Turn Therapeutics' candidate reduced ISGA score to 1.44, a 57% reduction, versus 3.0 for placebo, or a 10% reduction. The formula underlying Turn Therapeutics' candidate has a history of safe use in humans and a confirmed lack of cytotoxicity or sensitization in existing clearances from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
"People with atopic dermatitis are in dramatic need of safe and effective non-steroid, non-injectable treatment options," said Bradley Burnam, founder and CEO of Turn Therapeutics. "With a reduction of 1.89 points in the ISGA scale after only seven days, as well as confirmed inflammatory markers after induction, we expect to uncover notable immunological activity of our atopic dermatitis candidate."
