Data from Phase 2b REZOLVE-AD and REZOLVE-AA Studies of Rezpegaldesleukin Presented at 2026 American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting
Rezpegaldesleukin showed statistically significant reductions in disease severity for atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata in Phase 2b trials, supporting planned Phase 3 development.
- On Friday, Nektar Therapeutics showcased Phase 2b data for rezpegaldesleukin at the American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting in Denver, presenting efficacy results in atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata.
- The 393-patient REZOLVE-AD study demonstrated consistent reduction in mean EASI scores over 16 weeks, with patients achieving comparable EASI-75 and EASI-90 response rates regardless of baseline disease severity.
- Dr. David Rosmarin, Chair of the Department of Dermatology at Indiana University School of Medicine, reported 36-week alopecia areata data showing a 28.2% mean SALT reduction with high-dose rezpegaldesleukin versus 11.2% with placebo.
- Stimulating regulatory T-cells helps rebalance the immune system, according to Dr. Raj Chovatiya, Associate Professor at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, potentially providing consistent improvement across broader patient populations.
- Nektar plans to initiate the Phase 3 ZENITH-AD program in the second quarter of 2026 to evaluate rezpegaldesleukin in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis patients, building on Phase 2b efficacy results.
