cutaneous t-cell lymphoma medical
"for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) have been published"
Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is a rare type of skin cancer that develops when certain immune system cells grow uncontrollably, causing skin patches, rashes, or tumors. While it primarily affects health, its rarity and complexity can influence medical research funding and pharmaceutical development, which may impact investment opportunities in healthcare and biotech sectors. Understanding such diseases helps investors gauge potential risks and innovations in medical treatments.
mechlorethamine medical
"HyBryte™ (synthetic hypericin) versus Valchlor® (mechlorethamine) for the treatment"
Mechlorethamine is a chemotherapy drug that works by damaging the DNA of rapidly dividing cells, causing cancer cells to stop multiplying. Investors care because its approval, production, supply, or safety issues can materially affect a drugmaker’s sales, regulatory risk, manufacturing costs, and legal exposure; think of it as a specialist tool whose availability and reputation can change a company’s projected earnings and market value.
index lesions medical
"measured in 3 to 5 prospectively identified index lesions for each patient"
Index lesions are the specific tumor or disease sites selected at the start of a clinical study to track how a treatment affects a patient’s condition. They matter to investors because these predefined targets provide a consistent, measurable way to judge a drug’s effectiveness and safety—similar to monitoring a few representative trees to estimate the health of an entire forest—and their outcomes often drive trial results, regulatory decisions, and commercial prospects.
allergic contact dermatitis medical
"withdrawn from the trial because of a clinically significant allergic contact dermatitis"
Allergic contact dermatitis is a skin reaction that happens when a person’s immune system becomes sensitized to a substance and then reacts with redness, itching, blisters or a rash after skin contact. Think of the skin as a smoke alarm that, once triggered by a particular chemical, will react strongly each time it encounters it. For investors it matters because outbreaks, product recalls, regulatory restrictions or rising treatment costs can hurt sales, trigger liability claims, affect supply chains and change healthcare or workplace expense forecasts.
dermatitis medical
"events in the Valchlor® group included rashes, application site sensitivity, allergic contact dermatitis, and dermatitis"
Dermatitis is inflammation of the skin that causes redness, itching, swelling or blisters—think of it like the skin reacting badly to an irritant, allergy or moisture imbalance. For investors, dermatitis matters because its prevalence drives demand for prescription drugs, over‑the‑counter treatments, skincare products and related clinical trials or regulatory approvals, all of which can affect sales, research spending and the valuation of healthcare and consumer goods companies.
adverse events medical
"all patients tolerated HyBryte™ well and had no adverse events "related" to the therapy"
Adverse events are any harmful or unwanted medical occurrences experienced by people using a drug, device, or undergoing a treatment, whether or not the problem is caused by the product. Think of them as complaints or breakdowns noticed during a trial or after a product is on the market; regulators record and investigate them. Investors care because clusters or serious adverse events can delay approvals, trigger costly studies or recalls, change labeling, and quickly alter a company’s revenue and risk profile.

HyBryte™ demonstrates more rapid and robust treatment response compared to
Valchlor
® during 12-week treatment course

PRINCETON, N.J., April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Soligenix, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNGX) (Soligenix or the Company), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing products to treat rare diseases where there is an unmet medical need, announced today that the positive results of its comparability study evaluating HyBryte™ (synthetic hypericin) versus Valchlor® (mechlorethamine) for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) have been published in Oncology and Therapy

"Being able to share the important results of this clinical trial with the world through publication in Oncology and Therapy is a privilege and highlights the clinical significance of our work with HyBryte™," stated Brian Poligone, MD, PhD, Director of the Rochester Skin Lymphoma Medical Group, Fairport, NY, and Principal Investigator for the comparability study. "Despite the small study sample size and a randomization that lead to the HyBryte™ group having patients with more extensive disease, HyBryte™ performed well and the results are consistent with previous studies demonstrating its rapid onset of action and benign safety profile compared to one of the most widely prescribed approved drugs for early-stage CTCL. The positive effect this therapy can have for patients and the outstanding safety profile that HyBryte™ continues to demonstrate are very encouraging."

The purpose of the study was to obtain preliminary comparative assessment of the safety and efficacy of HyBryte™ versus Valchlor® following 12 weeks of treatment as measured in 3 to 5 prospectively identified index lesions for each patient. At the end of the 12-week treatment period, 60% of the HyBryte™ patients met the prospectively defined level of "Treatment Success" (≥50% improvement in their cumulative mCAILS score compared to Baseline) compared to only 20% of the Valchlor® patients; although due to the small sample size the results do not achieve statistical significance. Of the remaining two HyBryte™ patients that did not achieve treatment success, both saw a substantial (≥30%) reduction in their mCAILS score. In contrast, in the Valchlor® group, of the remaining 4 patients that did not achieve treatment success, one worsened and dropped from the study, one improved less than 30% and two improved greater than 30%. The average cumulative improvement in mCAILS at 12 weeks was 52.5% in the HyBryte™ patients versus 34.7% in the Valchlor® patients. HyBryte™ was well tolerated in all patients whereas 1 of the 5 patients receiving Valchlor® had to be withdrawn from the trial because of a clinically significant allergic contact dermatitis from Valchlor®.

When comparing the tolerance of the topical therapies (i.e., reactions where the drug was applied to the skin) in this trial, it is notable that all patients tolerated HyBryte™ well and had no adverse events "related" to the therapy. In contrast, 60% of the Valchlor® treated patients had at least one adverse event "related" to the therapy. These adverse events in the Valchlor® group included rashes, application site sensitivity, allergic contact dermatitis, and dermatitis, with one patient requiring steroid treatment, one requiring temporary interruption of Valchlor® treatment, and one requiring permanent discontinuation of Valchlor®. No such instances were reported in the HyBryte™ group.

About HyBryte™

HyBryte™ (research name SGX301) is a novel, first-in-class, photodynamic therapy utilizing safe, visible light for activation. The active ingredient in HyBryte™ is synthetic hypericin, a potent photosensitizer that is topically applied to skin lesions that is taken up by the malignant T-cells, and then activated by safe, visible light approximately 24 hours later. The use of visible light in the red-yellow spectrum has the advantage of penetrating more deeply into the skin (much more so than ultraviolet light) and therefore potentially treating deeper skin disease and thicker plaques and lesions. This treatment approach avoids the risk of secondary malignancies (including melanoma) inherent with the frequently employed DNA-damaging drugs and other phototherapy that are dependent on ultraviolet exposure. Combined with photoactivation, hypericin has demonstrated significant anti-proliferative effects on activated normal human lymphoid cells and inhibited growth of malignant T-cells isolated from CTCL patients. In a published Phase 2 clinical study in CTCL, patients experienced a statistically significant (p=0.04) improvement with topical hypericin treatment whereas the placebo was ineffective. HyBryte™ has received orphan drug and fast track designations from the FDA, as well as orphan designation from the European Medicines Agency (EMA).

The published Phase 3 FLASH trial enrolled a total of 169 patients (166 evaluable) with Stage IA, IB or IIA CTCL. The trial consisted of three treatment cycles. Treatments were administered twice weekly for the first 6 weeks and treatment response was determined at the end of the 8th week of each cycle. In the first double-blind treatment cycle (Cycle 1), 116 patients received HyBryte™ treatment (0.25% synthetic hypericin) and 50 received placebo treatment of their index lesions. A total of 16% of the patients receiving HyBryte™ achieved at least a 50% reduction in their lesions (graded using a standard measurement of dermatologic lesions, the modified Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Severity [mCAILS] score) compared to only 4% of patients in the placebo group at 8 weeks (p=0.04) during the first treatment cycle (primary endpoint). HyBryte™ treatment in this cycle was safe and well tolerated.

In the second open-label treatment cycle (Cycle 2), all patients received HyBryte™ treatment of their index lesions. Evaluation of 155 patients in this cycle (110 receiving 12 weeks of HyBryte™ treatment and 45 receiving 6 weeks of placebo treatment followed by 6 weeks of HyBryte™ treatment), demonstrated that the response rate among the 12-week treatment group was 40% (p<0.0001 vs the placebo treatment rate in Cycle 1). Comparison of the 12-week and 6-week treatment responses also revealed a statistically significant improvement (p<0.0001) between the two timepoints, indicating that continued treatment results in better outcomes. HyBryte™ continued to be safe and well tolerated. Additional analyses also indicated that HyBryte™ is equally effective in treating both plaque (response 42%, p<0.0001 relative to placebo treatment in Cycle 1) and patch (response 37%, p=0.0009 relative to placebo treatment in Cycle 1) lesions of CTCL, a particularly relevant finding given the historical difficulty in treating plaque lesions.

The third (optional) treatment cycle (Cycle 3) was focused on safety and all patients could elect to receive HyBryte™ treatment of all their lesions. Of note, 66% of patients elected to continue with this optional compassionate use / safety cycle of the study. Of the subset of patients that received HyBryte™ throughout all 3 cycles of treatment, 49% of them demonstrated a positive treatment response (p<0.0001 vs patients receiving placebo in Cycle 1). Moreover, in a subset of patients evaluated in this cycle, it was demonstrated that HyBryte™ is not systemically available, consistent with the general safety of this topical product observed to date. At the end of Cycle 3, HyBryte™ continued to be well tolerated despite extended and increased use of the product to treat multiple lesions.

Overall safety of HyBryte™ is a critical attribute of this treatment and was monitored throughout the three treatment cycles (Cycles 1, 2 and 3) and the 6-month follow-up period. HyBryte's™ mechanism of action is not associated with DNA damage, making it a safer alternative than currently available therapies, all of which are associated with significant, and sometimes fatal, side effects. Predominantly these include the risk of melanoma and other malignancies, as well as the risk of significant skin damage and premature skin aging. Currently available treatments are only approved in the context of previous treatment failure with other modalities and there is no approved front-line therapy available. Within this landscape, treatment of CTCL is strongly motivated by the safety risk of each product. HyBryte™ potentially represents the safest available efficacious treatment for CTCL. With very limited systemic absorption, a compound that is not mutagenic and a light source that is not carcinogenic, there is no evidence to date of any potential safety issues.

Following the first Phase 3 study of HyBryte™ for the treatment of CTCL, the FDA and the EMA indicated that they would require a second successful Phase 3 trial to support marketing approval. With agreement from the EMA on the key design components, the second, confirmatory study, called FLASH2, has successfully achieved its first safety review milestone with a pre-specified, blinded interim analysis expected to be completed in 2Q2026. This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study that will enroll approximately 80 subjects with early-stage CTCL. The FLASH2 study replicates the double-blind, placebo-controlled design used in the first successful Phase 3 FLASH study that consisted of three 6-week treatment cycles (18 weeks total), with the primary efficacy assessment occurring at the end of the initial 6-week double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment cycle (Cycle 1). However, this second study extends the double-blind, placebo-controlled assessment to 18 weeks of continuous treatment (no "between-Cycle" treatment breaks) with the primary endpoint assessment occurring at the end of the 18-week timepoint. In the first Phase 3 study, a treatment response of 49% (p<0.0001 vs patients receiving placebo in Cycle 1) was observed in patients completing 18 weeks (3 cycles) of therapy. In this second study, all important clinical study design components remain the same as in the first FLASH study, including the primary endpoint and key inclusion-exclusion criteria. The extended treatment for a continuous 18 weeks in a single cycle is expected to statistically demonstrate HyBryte's™ increased effect over a more prolonged, "real world" treatment course. Given the extensive engagement with the CTCL community, the esteemed Medical Advisory Board and the previous trial experience with this disease, accelerated enrollment in support of this study is anticipated, including the potential to enroll previously identified and treated HyBryte™ patients from the FLASH study. Discussions with the FDA on an appropriate study design remain ongoing. While collaborative, the agency has expressed a preference for a longer duration comparative study over a placebo-controlled trial. Given the shorter time to potential commercial revenue and the similar trial design to the first FLASH study afforded by the EMA accepted protocol, this study was initiated. At the same time, discussions with the FDA will continue on potential modifications to the development path to adequately address their feedback.

Additional supportive studies have demonstrated the utility of longer treatment times (Study RW-HPN-MF-01), the lack of significant systemic exposure to hypericin after topical application (Study HPN-CTCL-02) and its relative efficacy and tolerability compared to Valchlor® (Study HPN-CTCL-04).

In addition, the FDA awarded an Orphan Products Development grant to support the investigator-initiated study evaluation of HyBryte™ for expanded treatment in patients with early-stage CTCL, including in the home use setting. The grant, totaling $2.6 million over 4 years, was awarded to the University of Pennsylvania that was a leading enroller in the Phase 3 FLASH study.

About Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL)

CTCL is a class of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), a type of cancer of the white blood cells that are an integral part of the immune system. Unlike most NHLs which generally involve B-cell lymphocytes (involved in producing antibodies), CTCL is caused by an expansion of malignant T-cell lymphocytes (involved in cell-mediated immunity) normally programmed to migrate to the skin. These malignant cells migrate to the skin where they form various lesions, typically beginning as patches and may progress to raised plaques and tumors. Mortality is related to the stage of CTCL, with median survival generally ranging from about 12 years in the early stages to only 2.5 years when the disease has advanced. There is currently no cure for CTCL. Typically, CTCL lesions are treated and regress but usually return either in the same part of the body or in new areas.

CTCL constitutes a rare group of NHLs, occurring in about 4% of the more than 1.7 million individuals living with the disease in the U.S. and Europe (European Union and United Kingdom). It is estimated, based upon review of historic published studies and reports and an interpolation of data on the incidence of CTCL that it affects approximately 31,000 individuals in the U.S. (based on SEER [Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results] data, with approximately 3,200 new cases seen annually) and approximately 38,000 individuals in Europe (based on ECIS [European Cancer Information System] prevalence estimates, with approximately 3,800 new cases annually).
