Nektar Therapeutics furnished new clinical results from its ongoing Phase 2b REZOLVE-AD trial in atopic dermatitis. The study enrolled 393 patients; a pre-planned analysis of 99 participants with a history of asthma and ACQ-5 data showed all three rezpegaldesleukin doses reduced mean ACQ-5 scores at week 16, with the 24 μg/kg q2w and 24 μg/kg q4w arms reaching p<0.05 versus placebo. The placebo arm showed overall worsening.
Among patients with baseline ACQ-5 ≥0.5 (n=53), at least half achieved a clinically significant improvement across all active arms, compared to 13% for placebo. In those with uncontrolled asthma at baseline (ACQ-5 ≥1.5; n=25), all active doses improved mean ACQ-5 at week 16 with statistical significance, with placebo-adjusted reductions ranging 1.0–1.4. In a crossover cohort of 42 initial placebo patients treated with 24 μg/kg q2w, observed responses at crossover week 24 were: EASI-75 60% (n=30), vIGA-AD 0/1 33% (n=30), EASI-90 37% (n=30), and Itch NRS 50% for baseline ≥4 (n=28). Safety was generally consistent with the previously reported profile.
