LEO Pharma announces positive phase 3 head-to-head data results from DELTA FORCE trial comparing delgocitinib cream with alitretinoin capsules in adults with severe chronic hand eczema (CHE)24.1.2024 08:00:00 CET | Pressemeddelelse

Delgocitinib cream demonstrated a superior reduction in Hand Eczema Severity Index (HECSI) score from baseline to Week 12 compared to alitretinoin capsules as its primary outcome measure. Delgocitinib cream also demonstrated superiority to alitretinoin capsules in all key secondary outcome measures, including Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA)-CHE treatment success, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and a lower number of treatment-emergent adverse events. DELTA FORCE is the first head-to-head phase 3 trial comparing a systemic and topical treatment for CHE.1 With only one treatment option currently approved for severe CHE and no approved optionsfor more moderate forms of the disease, there is a considerable unmet need for patients living with CHE.

LEO Pharma announces positive outcome of DELTA 3 open-label extension trial of delgocitinib cream in the treatment of adults with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema (CHE)30.10.2023 10:00:00 CET | Pressemeddelelse

Subjects who completed the 16-week twice-daily treatment regimen of delgocitinib cream or cream vehicle in the phase 3 DELTA 1 or DELTA 2 trials were offered to immediately enroll into the 36-week DELTA 3 extension trial.1 The DELTA 3 trial evaluated the long-term safety of twice-daily as needed treatment with delgocitinib cream for up to 36 weeks in adults with moderate to severe CHE.1 The long-term safety profile of delgocitinib cream was consistent with previous results from the DELTA 1 and 2 trials. Patients who entered the DELTA 3 trial after receiving delgocitinib cream in the DELTA 1 and DELTA 2 trials maintained similar levels of symptom relief and treatment success over an additional 36-week treatment regimen.

LEO Pharma provides update on the development program for izuforant20.10.2023 09:43:02 CEST | Pressemeddelelse

The Phase 2a/b international trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orally administered izuforant tablets compared with placebo tablets for up to 16 weeks of treatment in adults with moderate to severe AD did not meet the primary endpoint. As a result, LEO Pharma ends the program for izuforant and terminates the license agreement with JW Pharmaceutical. LEO Pharma remains committed to delivering value for patients living with atopic dermatitis and other skin diseases.
