There were no serious or adverse events, and RAPT plans to advance RPT193 to a Phase 2b clinical trial and is also planning a Phase 2a study in asthma. The company said it intends to report additional data and analyses in a future publication or an upcoming medical conference.
“These data strongly support the potential of RPT193 as a safe, once-daily, oral treatment for patients with atopic dermatitis which would be an attractive therapeutic alternative ahead of injectable drugs,” said Brian Wong, President and CEO of RAPT Therapeutics.
“We look forward to advancing RPT193 to a Phase 2b trial in atopic dermatitis and a Phase 2a trial in asthma.”
RAPT Therapeutics share price is currently trading 99% above Friday’s close at $36.96.
