The presentation, titled "Tapinarof Cream 1% Once Daily for the Treatment of Plaque Psoriasis: Efficacy and Safety in Two Pivotal Phase 3 Trials," will be delivered on Saturday, Oct. 31, 10:15-10:30 am ET, 15:15-15:30 CET, in the virtual Alibert Room by Mark Lebwohl, MD, Dean for Clinical Therapeutics and Waldman Professor and Chairman of the Kimberly and Eric J.

We very much look forward to sharing the results with the dermatology community."
"As the lead investigator for PSOARING 1, it is a privilege to present these exciting findings from the Phase 3 pivotal trials of tapinarof cream, a potential new treatment option for psoriasis, to my esteemed dermatology colleagues at EADV," said Dr. Lebwohl.

In late August, Dermavant announced positive Phase 3 results for tapinarof cream in adult patients with plaque psoriasis. The pivotal Phase 3 clinical program for tapinarof in adult plaque psoriasis consists of PSOARING 1 (NCT03956355) and PSOARING 2 (NCT03983980), as well as PSOARING 3 (NCT04053387), an ongoing long-term safety study.
Tapinarof previously met the primary endpoints in separate Phase 2b trials for plaque psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Both studies were published in The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD), the official, peer-reviewed, scientific publication of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD).
About Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by red patches and plaques with silvery scales on the skin. Psoriasis affects approximately 8 million people in the U.S. and 125 million worldwide.
Psoriasis can begin at any age, but typically has two peaks of onset, the first at age 20 to 30 years and the second at age 50 to 60 years. People with psoriasis are at an increased risk of developing other chronic and serious health conditions. Comorbidities include psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and depression. Psoriasis has a significant impact on quality of life and on psychological health.
