About Atopic DermatitisAD is the most common
type of eczema, affecting approximately 9.6 million children and
16.5 million adults in the United States.
AD is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disease that is
genetically pre-disposed and presents across the lifespan. The
disease appears as a red, intensely itchy rash that can occur
anywhere on the body and may present differently in children and
adults. AD presentation can rapidly fluctuate and vary based on
geographic location and environment.
About ZORYVE®ZORYVE is a
steroid-free topical PDE4 inhibitor approved to treat AD,
seborrheic dermatitis, and plaque psoriasis. PDE4 — an established
target in dermatology — is an intracellular enzyme that increases
the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and decreases
production of anti-inflammatory mediators.
ZORYVE (roflumilast) cream 0.15% is approved by the FDA for the
treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in individuals 6
years of age and older and ZORVYE cream 0.3% for the topical
treatment of plaque psoriasis in individuals 6 years of age and
older. Another formulation, ZORYVE foam 0.3%, is available for the
treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in adults and children ages 9
and older.
Roflumilast cream for AD is currently being evaluated at a lower
dose of 0.05% for children aged 2 to 5 years. In addition, Arcutis
has completed its clinical development program for ZORYVE foam 0.3%
for the treatment of scalp and body psoriasis and intends to submit
an sNDA in the third quarter of 2024.
