What this company does

We are a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for dermatological diseases with high unmet medical needs. Our current portfolio is comprised of highly differentiated topical and systemic treatments with significant potential to treat immune-mediated dermatological diseases and conditions. We believe we have built a leading platform for dermatologic product development and commercialization. Our strategy is to focus on validated biological targets, and to use our drug development platform and deep dermatology expertise to develop and commercialize differentiated products that have the potential to address the major shortcomings of existing therapies in our targeted indications. We believe this strategy uniquely positions us to rapidly advance our goal of bridging the treatment innovation gap in dermatology, while maximizing our probability of technical success and financial resources.

We launched our lead product, ZORYVE cream 0.3%, in August 2022 after obtaining our initial FDA approval for the treatment of plaque psoriasis, including psoriasis in the intertriginous areas (e.g. groin or axillae), in individuals 12 years of age or older. ZORYVE cream 0.3% is a once-daily topical formulation of roflumilast, a highly potent and selective phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor. ZORYVE cream 0.3% is approved for once-daily topical treatment of mild, moderate, and severe plaque psoriasis with no limitations on location or duration of use. In October 2023, we received FDA approval for an expanded indication in plaque psoriasis down to 6 years of age. In November 2025, our supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) was accepted for filing by the FDA to potentially expand the indication of ZORYVE cream 0.3% for the treatment of plaque psoriasis in children down to the age of 2, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date set for June 29, 2026. In June 2023, we had our first commercial launch outside of the United States following Health Canada approval of ZORYVE cream 0.3% for the treatment of plaque psoriasis in individuals 12 years or age or older. In February 2026, Health Canada accepted our Supplement to a New Drug Submission (SNDS) for ZORYVE cream 0.3% for individuals down to 2 years old.

In December 2023, we received FDA approval for ZORYVE foam 0.3% for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in individuals aged 9 years and older, with no limitation on severity, location, or duration of use. ZORYVE foam is a once-daily steroid-free foam and, as a PDE4 inhibitor, was the first drug approved for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis with a new mechanism of action in over two decades. ZORYVE foam became commercially available in the United States in January 2024 and became commercially available in Canada in December 2024 following approval by Health Canada. We received FDA approval for ZORYVE foam for the treatment of plaque psoriasis of the scalp and body in adults and adolescents ages 12 and older in May 2025, followed by commercial launch in the United States in June 2025. ZORYVE foam for the treatment of plaque psoriasis of the scalp and body in adults and adolescents ages 12 and older was also approved by Health Canada in October 2025, followed by commercial launch in November 2025.

We also received FDA approval for, and commercially launched, ZORYVE cream 0.15% in July 2024 for the topical treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in adults and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older, with no limitation on location, body surface area treated, concomitant use, or duration of use specified in the approved labelling. ZORYVE cream 0.15% was also approved by Health Canada in March 2025 and commercially launched in April 2025. We also received FDA approval for, and commercially launched, ZORYVE cream 0.05% for the topical treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in children 2 to 5 years of age in October 2025. ZORYVE cream 0.15% and ZORYVE cream 0.05% are once-daily, steroid-free creams that provide rapid disease clearance and significant reduction in itch, and have been specifically developed to be treatment options for long-term disease control. In February 2026, we announced positive topline data for INTEGUMENT-INFANT, a Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of investigational ZORYVE cream 0.05% in infants as young as 3 months to less than 2 years with atopic dermatitis. We intend to submit an sNDA to the FDA in the second quarter of 2026 based on the results of this trial to potentially expand the indication for ZORYVE cream 0.05% for the treatment of infants with atopic dermatitis down to the age of 3 months.
