New patient-reported outcome data from INTEGUMENT-1 and -2 demonstrate that ZORYVE cream 0.15% rapidly decreased the impact of atopic dermatitis (AD), including sleep loss and daily activities, on patients and familiesZORYVE cream 0.15% resulted in significant improvements across all efficacy endpoints, including validated Investigator Global Assessment-Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD) Success and rapid itch reduction within 24-hours of first applicationData presented as an oral presentation at the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) 2024 Annual Scientific Meeting WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arcutis Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARQT), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing meaningful innovations in immuno-dermatology, today announced new patient-reported outcome data demonstrating that ZORYVE cream 0.15% improved the impact of AD on patients, families, and caregivers. These results, along with efficacy, safety, and tolerability data from Phase 3 INTEGUMENT-1 and -2, will be shared in an oral presentation at the ACAAI 2024 Annual Scientific Meeting held October 24-28, 2024, in Boston, MA. Improvement with ZORYVE cream 0.15% was seen across multiple patient-reported outcomes including SCORing AD (SCORAD) total scorei, Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), and Dermatitis Family Impact (DFI) compared to vehicle at 4 weeks, with improvement reported as early as Week 1, the first timepoint measured. These assessments score the improvement of physical symptoms such as redness and itchiness, as well as impact on loss of sleep, emotional distress, and daily activities (such as schoolwork, housework, or social activities). “AD is a chronic, complex disease that can negatively affect the individual and the broader family unit, impacting relationships, sleep, and basic functions in life, like school attendance, housework, food preparation, and more,” said Mark Boguniewicz, MD, professor in the Division of Allergy-Immunology, Department of Pediatrics, at National Jewish Health and University of Colorado School of Medicine , and presenting author. “These new data show that treatment with ZORYVE not only provides rapid disease clearance and significant reduction in itch for the patient, but extends beyond that, reducing the impact of quality of life challenges that families and caregivers experience as a result of having a loved one living with a chronic skin disease like AD.” Treatment with ZORYVE improved all patient-reported outcomes measured compared to vehicle including: 64.2% of individuals treated with ZORYVE cream achieved a clinically meaningful improvement in SCORAD Total Score compared to 36.3% treated with vehicle at Week 1 i,ii (P<0.0001).46.2% of individuals treated with ZORYVE cream demonstrated improvement in SCORAD Total Score compared to 26.6% of patients treated with vehicle at Week 4 (P<0.0001).61.7% of ZORYVE cream treated individuals achieved a clinically meaningful improvement in POEM scores compared to 34.2% treated with the vehicle at Week 1 (P<0.0001).Greater improvement in POEM scores were seen with ZORYVE cream compared to vehicle at Week 4 (7.5 vs. 3.9; P<0.0001).Greater improvement in DFI scores were seen with ZORYVE cream treated patients compared to vehicle at Week 4 (3.12 vs. 1.74; P<0.0001). "When evaluating different treatment options for chronic skin conditions we often focus on the clinical efficacy outcomes, like disease clearance or reduction in symptoms like itch. However, this is just one piece of the puzzle and it’s just as important to understand the improvement in other aspects of patients’ lives that are impacted by this chronic disease,” said Patrick Burnett, MD, PhD, FAAD, chief medical officer of Arcutis. “We’re proud to share these data showcasing rapid improvement in patient reported outcomes, which translate to meaningful relief with ZORYVE cream for those with AD their families, and caregivers.” As previously reported and published in JAMA Dermatology, across both studies (INTEGUMENT-1 and INTEGUMENT-2) ZORYVE cream 0.15% met the primary efficacy endpoint of Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Success, defined as a validated Investigator Global Assessment – Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD) score of Clear or Almost Clear plus a 2-grade improvement from baseline at Week 4 (31.3% ZORYVE cream vs. 14.1% vehicle, P<0.0001). ZORYVE cream 0.15% was safe and well tolerated. The Incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) was low in both ZORYVE- and vehicle-treated patients. The most common adverse reactions were headache, nausea, application site pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. INTEGUMENT-1 and INTEGUMENT-2 (The INterventional Trial EvaluatinG roflUMilast cream for the treatmENt of aTopic dermatitis) were two identical Phase 3, parallel group, double blind, vehicle-controlled trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of ZORYVE cream 0.15% or vehicle applied once-daily for four weeks to 1,337 adults and children 6 years of age and older with mild to moderate AD. Presentation Details“Patient-reported Outcomes and Family Impact With Roflumilast Cream in Atopic Dermatitis: Pooled Phase 3 Results”Session: Distinguished Industry & Late-breaking Oral Abstracts - Session 2Room: 311311Saturday, Oct. 26, 2024; 4:30 PM (ET) session; 5:13 PM (ET) presentationPresenter: Mark Boguniewicz, MD About Atopic DermatitisAD is the most common type of eczema, affecting approximately 9.6 million children and 16.5 million adults in the United States. AD is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disease that is genetically pre-disposed and presents across the lifespan. The disease may appear as a red, intensely itchy rash that can occur anywhere on the body and may present differently in children and adults. AD presentation can rapidly fluctuate and vary based on geographic location and environment.

JAK inhibitors are a class of medications that work by blocking Janus kinases (JAKs), enzymes that are involved in the signaling pathways of various cytokines and growth factors. JAK inhibitors offer a more targeted approach to treating immune-mediated diseases compared to traditional therapies like corticosteroids or conventional immunosuppressants; this specificity reduces side effects and increases efficacy and is a major driver for the demand for JAK inhibitors.

JAK Inhibitors Overview Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are a class of medications designed to interfere with the activity of the Janus kinase family of enzymes, which play a crucial role in the signaling pathways of immune responses. These enzymes are key mediators in transmitting signals from cytokines and growth factors, which regulate blood cell production and immune system function. By blocking these signals, JAK inhibitors help to control the overactive immune response seen in several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. They have shown significant efficacy in treating conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis, among others. The most common JAK inhibitors include tofacitinib, baricitinib, and upadacitinib, which are administered orally. Beyond their role in autoimmune diseases, JAK inhibitors are also being explored for use in treating certain cancers and myeloproliferative disorders, where abnormal JAK signaling contributes to uncontrolled cell growth. In diseases like myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera, JAK inhibitors can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. However, there are potential side effects associated with their use, including increased susceptibility to infections, blood clots, and cardiovascular risks, given their impact on the immune system. As research continues, the therapeutic potential of JAK inhibitors is expanding, offering new hope for patients with difficult-to-treat conditions.

In the Phase III STRATUM trial, 80% of patients succeeded in the treatment by week eight using ZORYVE foam. Credit: Arcutis Biotherapeutics, Inc./GlobeNewswire. Arcutis Biotherapeutics ‘ subsidiary, Arcutis Canada, has received Health Canada’s approval for ZORYVE (roflumilast) topical foam 0.3%, to treat seborrheic dermatitis in patients aged nine years and above. This is the second international approval of ZORYVE, offering a new treatment option to the more than two million Canadians affected by the chronic skin condition. The approval was based on positive outcomes from the pivotal Phase III STRATUM study, along with results from a Phase II long-term open-label extension trial study and a Phase I pharmacokinetic clinical trial. In the vehicle-controlled STRATUM trial, 80% of patients succeeded in the treatment by week eight using ZORYVE foam, with some experiencing disease clearance as early as week two. The foam can provide significant itch relief within 48 hours due to its formulation, designed to administer the medicine effectively without troubling the skin barrier. See Also: FDA approves Astellas’ VYLOY for gastric cancer treatment Intercept’s liver disease drug Ocaliva faces FDA approval delay ZORYVE foam 0.3% is the first topical medication with a new mechanism of action for seborrheic dermatitis approved in Canada in more than two decades. Arcutis president and CEO Frank Watanabe stated: “ZORYVE foam has made a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals living with seborrheic dermatitis since launching in the United States at the beginning of this year, with rapid adoption by both clinicians and patients. We are proud to bring this safe, effective and well-tolerated steroid-free foam to Canada, as there has been a lack of innovation for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis for decades. “We would like to thank the Canadian investigators and patients who participated in our ZORYVE clinical trials and who played a critical role in bringing this potential best-in-class topical treatment to the United States and Canada markets.” Roflumilast, the active ingredient in ZORYVE, is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of Phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4), an enzyme known to modulate inflammatory responses in the skin. Arcutis has developed roflumilast’s cream as well as foam formulations to treat dermatologic conditions. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had previously approved ZORYVE foam 0.3% for seborrheic dermatitis in December 2023. The FDA also approved ZORYVE cream for atopic dermatitis in July 2024 .
