Having obtained green light from the FDA in September 2023 for the commencement of global Phase 2 Clinical Trials, Shaperon is thoroughly assessing Nugel’s ability to enhance the Eczema Area Severity Index among a varied group of 210 individuals suffering from light to moderate atopic dermatitis. The study employs a strict double-blind process, compared against a placebo, and is projected to wrap up in the early part of 2026.
Considering the market analysis, a vigorous expansion of the market for atopic dermatitis treatments is predicted, with an 8.7% increase leading to an estimated value of $19.1 billion by the year 2030. Currently, steroid-based therapies and other medications approved by the FDA are standard treatments, but there remains an urgent demand for innovative drugs that bypass the negative side effects and limitations of existing options.
Nugel is at the forefront of a new era in atopic dermatitis management, being the first medication to modulate the activity of ‘GPCR19’ for controlling inflammation. This drug’s distinctive mode of action is limited to immune-regulatory cells and is designed to mitigate inflammation with reduced adverse reactions. The potential of Nugel extends beyond atopic dermatitis, showing promise for a wider range of dermatological disorders and signaling a significant shift in the future of global medical treatments.
Shaperon’s CEO, Dr. Seung-Yong Seong, stands firm on the promise to propel Nugel into the international market and to ensure the successful exchange of technology throughout the ongoing Phase 2 trials. Shaperon is employing forward-thinking methods, including a smartwatch-integrated AI for tracking and managing medication, to enhance the care of patients and the accuracy of clinical data.
