The news has seen the company’s share price sink 74.59% to $2.35 from $9.25 per share, the lowest it has been since 2016.

Robert Spiera, M.D., Co-Principal Investigator on RESOLVE-1 said “I am genuinely surprised by these results. Immunosuppressive drugs, alone or in combination, are increasingly becoming a mainstay of treatment for patients with early diffuse cutaneous SSc.

“However, the impact of these drugs on disease has not previously been studied systematically and clearly was underappreciated by the community of SSc experts.”
