Sanofi: presents results of UCS study
(CercleFinance.com) - Sanofi announces that Dupixent provides significant improvements in pruritus and urticaria, as confirmed by a Phase III study in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU).
CSU is a chronic skin disease that causes sudden eruptions of disabling urticarial plaques and persistent itching that can impact quality of life.
This second pivotal study in biologic drug-naïve patients confirms the results of the CUPID-A study, met its primary and primary secondary endpoints, and showed that treatment with Dupixent resulted in an almost 50% reduction in pruritus and urticaria activity scores, compared to placebo.
In the USA, over 300,000 people suffer from chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled by antihistamines.
These data will motivate a new regulatory submission in the USA by the end of the year. If approved, Dupixent will be the first targeted drug for the treatment of SCU in ten years.
