A Phase 2a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of NuGel, a Novel Topical GPCR19-Mediated Inflammasome Inhibitor, in Patients with Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis: A Proof-of-Concept Study with Post-Hoc Biomarker Analysis (Frontiers) - P2 | N=80 | NCT04530643 | Sponsor: Shaperon | "This study assessed NuGel, a topical GPCR19 agonist, for efficacy, safety, and predictive baseline biomarkers in AD patients.In a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2a trial (August 2020-September 2021, five hospitals, 80 participants), patients received placebo, 0.3% NuGel, or 0.5% NuGel twice daily for four weeks. NuGel (0.3% [Nu0.3] and 0.5% [Nu0.5]) was well-tolerated, with no adverse drug reactions or serious adverse events. Nu0.3 showed a significant decrease in EASI score from baseline (-12.2%, [-30.3%, 5.9%], p = 0.04). Treatment with Nu0.5 resulted in a numerically decreased EASI score (-11.9%, [-34.9%, 11.1%], p > 0.05), which is comparable with placebo group (-2.9%, [-21.5%, 15.6%], p > 0.05). No significant difference was observed between groups (p>0.05)."
