Efficacy and safety of PAC-14028 cream - a novel, topical, nonsteroidal, selective TRPV1 antagonist in patients with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis: a phase IIb randomized trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily, member 1 (TRPV1) may play an important role in pruritus and inflammation induction in atopic dermatitis (AD). The treatment effect of TRPV1 antagonist via topical application in patients with AD remains unknown. OBJECTIVES:To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of PAC-14028, a TRPV1 antagonist, via topical application in patients with AD. METHODS:In this 8-week, phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, multicentre, vehicle-controlled study, patients with mild-to-moderate AD were randomized to receive PAC-14028 cream 0·1%, 0·3%, 1·0% or vehicle cream twice daily. The primary efficacy end point was the Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) success rate defined as the percentage of patients with an IGA score of 0 or 1 at week 8. The secondary efficacy end points included the severity Scoring of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) index and Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) 75/90. RESULTS:A total of 194 patients were enrolled. IGA success rates at week 8 were 14·58% for vehicle cream, 42·55% for PAC-14028 cream 0·1% (P = 0·0025 vs. vehicle), 38·30% for PAC-14028 cream 0·3% (P = 0·0087 vs. vehicle) and 57·45% for PAC-14028 cream 1·0% (P < 0·001 vs. vehicle). In particular, statistically significant differences were found between the vehicle and treatment groups in the IGA success rates with two-grade improvement. The SCORAD index, EASI 75/90, sleep disturbance score and pruritus visual analogue scale showed a trend towards improvement. No significant safety issues were reported. CONCLUSIONS:PAC-14028 cream may be an effective and safe treatment modality for the treatment of patients with mild-to-moderate AD.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Skin barrier dysfunction plays a key role in atopic dermatitis (AD). This impairment is related to altered composition and metabolism of epidermal sphingolipids and a deficiency of ceramides. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), and especially hyaluronic acid, could be useful in the management of AD. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a novel topical treatment consisting of sphingolipids and GAGs extracts in dogs with AD. This formulation is different from previously tested products because the sphingolipid extract contained high amounts of sphingomyelin, a precursor of ceramides, and this has been shown to enhance endogenous synthesis of ceramides and to increase lamellar-related structures in vitro. Thus, it was hypothesized that this formulation could improve clinical disease and skin barrier function in patients with AD. RESULTS:Twelve house dust mite (HDM) allergic atopic beagle dogs were randomized into two groups: control (n = 6; no treatment) or treatment (n = 6; topical sphingolipids and GAGs twice weekly for 8 weeks). Dogs were challenged with allergen twice weekly and the severity of dermatitis was scored using the canine atopic dermatitis and extent severity index (CADESI-03) once weekly. Skin barrier function (measurement of transepidermal water loss) and severity of pruritus (both pruritus visual analog scale [PVAS] and pruritus timed episodes) were assessed at 0, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. Assessments were done by personnel unaware of group allocation. Complete blood count, serum biochemistry and stratum corneum (SC) lipidomics analyses were done at baseline and at week 8. Compared to baseline, significant increases in CADESI (P = 0.0003) and PVAS (P = 0.041) were observed only in the control group, and SC polyunsaturated fatty acids increased significantly only with treatment (P = 0.039). Compared to control, treatment group had a significantly lower CADESI after 1 week (P = 0.0078) and a significantly lower PVAS after 8 weeks (P = 0.0448). Treatment was well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS:In this study in dogs with AD, a new topical formulation containing sphingomyelin-rich sphingolipids plus GAGs extracts attenuated the clinical worsening induced by HDM, supporting its use in atopic patients, either as an adjunctive treatment or used as monotherapy in certain cases.

Project description:BackgroundRuxolitinib cream is a topical formulation of ruxolitinib, an inhibitor of Janus kinase 1 and Janus kinase 2.ObjectiveWe aimed to determine the safety, tolerability, and bioavailability of 1.5% ruxolitinib cream under maximum-use conditions in patients with atopic dermatitis. Efficacy was evaluated as an exploratory objective.MethodsEligible patients aged ≥ 12-65 years with atopic dermatitis, an Investigator's Global Assessment score ≥ 2, and ≥ 25% affected body surface area were enrolled in an open-label, maximum-use phase I study conducted in the USA and Canada. Patients applied 1.5% ruxolitinib cream twice daily to lesions identified at baseline for the first 28 days and continued use only on active lesions for an additional 28 days (extension period). Safety was assessed by frequency, duration, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events. Plasma concentrations of ruxolitinib and pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed as secondary endpoints.ResultsOverall, 41 patients (median age, 17 years; 51% male) were enrolled and 37 (90.2%) entered the extension period, all of whom completed the study. Treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 13 patients (31.7%). Treatment-related adverse events were reported in four patients (9.8%). The mean (standard deviation) steady-state plasma concentration was 104 (309) nM during the first 28 days, well below the half-maximal inhibitory concentration of Janus kinase-mediated myelosuppression in the bone marrow (281 nM), and decreased further during the extension period. Higher plasma concentrations were detected in a few patients who were treated for a very high affected body surface area. At day 56, 94.6% of patients achieved ≥ 75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index.ConclusionsUnder maximum-use conditions, ruxolitinib cream was generally well tolerated, with approximately one-third of patients experiencing treatment-emergent adverse events and few treatment-related adverse events. The mean steady-state plasma concentration of ruxolitinib was well below the level expected to affect bone marrow production of blood cells, with a small number of patients exhibiting higher plasma concentrations. In addition, ruxolitinib cream showed a high level of efficacy in patients with atopic dermatitis involving ≥ 25% affected body surface area.ClinicaltrialsGov identifierNCT03920852.
