NEWARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVNC), a biotechnology company developing botulinum toxin products for use in aesthetic and therapeutic indications, today announced presentation of clinical data from the company’s BELMONT Phase 2 study of DaxibotulinumtoxinA Injectable (RT002) at the 2017 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting, taking place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, March 3-7, 2017. BELMONT was the company’s Phase 2 active comparator, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and duration of effect of RT002 injectable for the treatment of glabellar (frown) lines, the 24-week results of which were reported in October 2015. Findings from a patient’s perspective study also being reported at the AAD annual meeting confirm the content validity of patient questionnaires in measuring the impact of frown lines.
Scheduled data presentations at 2017 AAD Annual Meeting:
Poster Presentation: “Duration and Onset of Glabellar Frown Line Reduction after an Injection of DaxibotulinumtoxinA: Results of the BELMONT Study”, March 3, 1:30 PM to 1:35 PM ET, Orlando, Florida
A poster highlights final data from the BELMONT Phase 2 active comparator and placebo-controlled study of RT002 injectable for the treatment of moderate to severe glabellar lines in adults.
Poster Presentation: “Impacts of Glabellar Facial Lines – A Patient Perspective”, March 3, 2:15 PM to 2:20 PM ET, Orlando, Florida
A second poster reports on findings validating the Patient Frown Wrinkle Severity (PFWS) assessment, currently being used in Revance’s SAKURA Phase 3 clinical program, and two recently developed questionnaires, the Frown Line Impact Scale (FLIS) and the Facial Age Self Evaluation (FASE) scale.
“Physician interest continues to mount for our BELMONT results, and AAD provides an important opportunity to showcase our differentiated clinical findings, including increased response rates and extended duration of effect of RT002 compared to the market-leading neurotoxin,” said Dan Browne, President and Chief Executive Officer at Revance. “A content validity study also examines our innovation of clinical assessment tools, further underscoring our commitment to delineate the patient experience and outcomes.”
