Glenmark Pharmaceuticals has presented findings from a Phase 2a study of GBR 830, an investigational anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody, at the 2018 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting in San Diego. The GBR 830 Phase 2a study was a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) that evaluated the safety, biological and clinical activity, and pharmacokinetics of GBR 830.
New data presented on 40 patients who had skin biopsies showed that GBR 830 had an effect on AD-related disease biomarkers. Additionally, a clinical improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) scores was observed in 17 out of 23 patients treated with GBR 830. In the study, GBR 830 was safe and well-tolerated.
