• Data from the Phase 3 TRuE-V program of ruxolitinib cream in vitiligo to be presented for the first time in a late-breaking oral presentation

Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today announced that multiple abstracts highlighting data for ruxolitinib cream, an investigational topical JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor, in patients with vitiligo and atopic dermatitis (AD) will be presented at the upcoming European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) 30th Anniversary Congress, held virtually from September 29-October 2, 2021.

The 24-week data from the Phase 3 TRuE-V program evaluating the safety and efficacy of ruxolitinib cream in adolescent and adult patients (age ≥12 years) with vitiligo will be presented as a late-breaking oral presentation.
