Positive Atopic Dermatitis Trial Results

Corvus announced on Tuesday that cohort 4 of its placebo-controlled trial showed favorable safety and efficacy results, consistent with those of the previous three cohorts.

“The results from cohort 4 increase our confidence that soquelitinib could become a leading oral therapy for the treatment of atopic dermatitis,” said Corvus CEO Richard A. Miller.
