Galderma @ AAD 2024: New Data Demonstrate the Long-Term Efficacy of Nemolizumab in Prurigo Nodularis and Its Durability in Atopic Dermatitis
Galderma today announced new data demonstrating nemolizumab’s long-term and increasing efficacy on skin lesions and other symptoms in prurigo nodularis through to week 52 in the OLYMPIA LTE study.1 Additionally, data from the ARCADIA 1 and 2 trials in atopic dermatitis indicate that the majority of patients maintained skin and itch responses through to week 48, with similar efficacy observed whether receiving nemolizumab every four (Q4W) or eight weeks (Q8W).2 These late-breaking data are being presented today at the 2024 American Academy of Dermatology Association (AAD) Annual Meeting, taking place on March 8-12, 2024.

Sleep disturbance, as measured by the sleep disturbance numerical rating scale (SD-NRS), also continued to improve, as well as quality of life, as measured by the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI).1
Results also reinforced nemolizumab’s rapid onset of action, with nemolizumab-naïve patients rapidly achieving an at least four-point improvement in itch intensity, as measured by the PP-NRS, as early as week four, consistent with the continuous-nemolizumab cohort. - Nemolizumab was also granted U.S. FDA Priority Review for prurigo nodularis.
- Further submissions to regulatory authorities in additional countries are planned in 2024.
