Interim results from the German REACHED study provide the first real-world evidence on the effectiveness of delgocitinib cream in adults with moderate to severe Chronic Hand Eczema (CHE), with 28.6% of patients assessed as clear or almost clear after eight weeks of treatment, from none at baseline.1 New post hoc analyses from the phase 3 DELTA TEEN trial show greater reductions in daily HESD itch and pain scores with delgocitinib cream than with cream vehicle in adolescents aged 12-17 with moderate to severe CHE.2 In an oral presentation, new post hoc analyses from DELTA TEEN show that a higher proportion of adolescents reported no impact on quality of life at Week 16 with delgocitinib cream than with cream vehicle (27.0% vs 0%)3

New findings from a subgroup analysis of the 12-month TRACE study show that more than 70% of adults whose Atopic Dermatitis (AD) affected multiple high-burden areas – such as the head and neck, hands and feet, or genitals – had reduced involvement of those areas after 12 months of treatment with tralokinumab.1 New pre-specified and post hoc analyses from the phase 3 ADHAND trial show significantly greater improvements in quality of life, daily function and sleep at Week 16 with tralokinumab monotherapy than with placebo in adults with AD and moderate-to-severe hand involvement, with the two treatment groups separating within two weeks.2,3 In a post hoc analysis, adolescents aged 12-17 years treated across the phase 3 ECZTRA 6 trial and its ECZTEND extension, response rates remained high and stable through most of the extension period, and no new safety concerns were identified.5

LEO Pharma receives positive CHMP opinion recommending Anzupgo® (delgocitinib) cream for adolescents with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema in the EU18.9.2026 10:00:00 CEST | Pressemeddelelse

The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has recommended expanding the use of Anzupgo® (delgocitinib) cream to adolescents aged 12 to 17 years with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema for whom topical corticosteroids are inadequate or inappropriate. If approved by the European Commission, Anzupgo® would become the first therapy in the EU specifically approved for adolescents with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema, a patient population for whom there are currently no specifically approved treatment options. The positive CHMP opinion is supported by results from DELTA TEEN, a phase 3 trial investigating the efficacy and safety of Anzupgo® in adolescents with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema.1
