Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic autoimmune disease with distinctive cutaneous eruptions and muscle weakness, and the pathophysiology is characterised by type I interferon (IFN) dysregulation. This study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and target engagement of dazukibart, a potent, selective, humanised IgG1 neutralising monoclonal antibody directed against IFNβ, in adults with moderate-to-severe dermatomyositis.

Methods: This multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial was conducted at 25 university-based hospitals and outpatient sites in Germany, Hungary, Poland, Spain, and the USA.

  • Regulatory guidance on disease outcome measures is crucial for improving clinical trials for cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) and increasing participant diversity.
  • A study of 377 CLE patients analyzed erythema variations across different subtypes and racial/ethnic groups to see how these differences impact eligibility for trials.
  • Results showed significant erythema differences among CLE subtypes and among racial/ethnic groups, particularly with SCLE and hypertrophic CCLE being primarily classified as red.

Article Synopsis
  • - Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare autoimmune disease affecting the skin and is often difficult to treat, with standard medications sometimes ineffective; lenabasum, a selective cannabinoid receptor 2 agonist, shows promise in managing these skin-related symptoms.
  • - In a study involving a 3-year open-label extension of a Phase 2 trial with 20 patients resistant to traditional treatments, researchers assessed the long-term effectiveness and recurrence of DM symptoms while on lenabasum.
  • - Results indicated significant improvements in skin disease activity and stability, with 58.3% of patients maintaining stable conditions and a notable reduction in flare-ups, suggesting lenabasum as a viable treatment for difficult-to-manage DM cases. *
