Phase 3-results for MOB-015 published in JAAD

STOCKHOLM, June 10th 2021. Moberg Pharma AB (OMX: MOB) announces that the results from the North American phase 3-study with MOB-015 (topical terbinafine) for the treatment of onychomycosis have been published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology.

In December 2019, Moberg Pharma announced positive top-line results from a phase 3-study including 365 patients, where the primary efficacy endpoint and the two key secondary efficacy endpoints were met. Mycological cure was achieved in 70 percent of patients receiving MOB-015 and complete cure was achieved in 4.5 percent of patients receiving MOB-015. Treatment success (mycological cure and almost or completely clear great toenail) assessed by the investigator was achieved in 15.4 percent of the patients. In the patients’ self-assessments, a clear majority (83 percent) of the patients completing the study reported improvement from MOB-015 as early as 12 weeks after starting treatment, and at week 52, 33 percent reported their treated toenails were cured or almost cured. Both physician´s and patient´s assessment were consistent in showing that the high mycological cure rate achieved with treatment with MOB-015 translated into clinical benefit. The results are now published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, Volume 85, Issue 1, July 2021, Pages 95-104 and are available online.
