- 24-week results demonstrate significant improvement in repigmentation of facial vitiligo lesions after treatment with ruxolitinib cream
- Data presented at the World Congress of Dermatology support the planned initiation of a pivotal Phase 3 program, for which preparations are currently underway
- Investor conference call and webcast scheduled for Monday, June 17 at 8 a.m. EDT
Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today announces 24-week results from its randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, vehicle-controlled, Phase 2 study evaluating ruxolitinib cream, a nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory, JAK inhibitor therapy, in adult patients (18 to 75 years of age) with vitiligo. The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating that significantly more patients treated with ruxolitinib cream for 24 weeks achieved a ≥50 percent improvement from baseline in the facial vitiligo area severity index (F-VASI50) score compared to patients treated with a vehicle control (non-medicated cream). F-VASI50 response was most notably achieved with ruxolitinib cream 1.5 percent administered once daily (QD) and twice daily (BID) vs. vehicle control (50 percent and 45 percent vs. 3 percent, respectively; P<0.001).
These results are being presented at the 24th World Congress of Dermatology (WCD) in Milan, Italy, during a late-breaking research session today, June 15, 2019, from 9:25 a.m. CET to 9:35 a.m. CET (3:25 a.m. EDT to 3:35 a.m. EDT). (Location: Room Yellow 3).
