Promising results from AcuCort’s Phase IV study – scientific articles under preparation for international publication
In mid-November 2024, the final patient completed AcuCort’s Phase IV clinical trial. Subsequently, all data were compiled and analyzed, resulting in a clinical study report showcasing highly encouraging outcomes for Zeqmelit®. The company is now preparing manuscripts for submission to leading peer-reviewed international scientific journals. These publications represent a strategic milestone in AcuCort’s strategy to expand its presence in European and U.S. markets.
AcuCort’s Phase IV trial ZEQ001 commenced in late January 2024 with the objective of generating real-world evidence from patients transitioning from traditional tablet formulations to Zeqmelit®. The trial focused on evaluating patient experiences with the product, including perceived safety, ease of use, and overall convenience in daily life.
As previously disclosed by AcuCort, the last patient completed the study in November 2024. Following the conclusion of the trial, a comprehensive data analysis was conducted, culminating in the development of a detailed clinical study report. This report now serves as the foundation for drafting scientific publications aimed at allergists and other specialists managing this patient population.
“The results from this study are highly positive and provide a robust basis for scientific dissemination. Publications in international peer-reviewed journals are a cornerstone of our strategy to establish Zeqmelit® as treatment option in both European and U.S. markets,” says Jonas Jönmark, CEO of AcuCort.
