Sun Pharma reports five-year positive results for ILUMYA in Plaque Psoriasis patients
ILUMYA is approved for adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and is being evaluated for other possible uses.;
Mumbai and Princeton: Drug major, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, has recently announced that one of its wholly owned subsidiaries presented positive, five-year Phase 3 data for ILUMYA(tildrakizumab-asmn) from the combined reSURFACE 1 and reSURFACE 2 extension studies.
Patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who continued to receive ILUMYA through five years of continuous treatment maintained consistent and extensive skin clearance with no new safety issues reported. These data were presented for the first time at the 29th European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Virtual Congress.
"These results are important as we now have five-year data reinforcing our understanding that ILUMYA may provide patients with sustained skin clearance and a well understood safety profile that was comparable to placebo," said Richard Langley, M.D., FRCPC, professor of medicine and director of research, Department of Medicine, Dalhousie University. "ILUMYA is a valued option for patients in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, and these findings are reassuring for physicians and their patients living with this chronic disease."
