Arcutis Completes Enrollment in INTEGUMENT-INFANT Phase 2 Study Evaluating ZORYVE® (roflumilast) Cream 0.05% in Infants with Atopic Dermatitis

• Investigational ZORYVE cream 0.05% was formulated for the delicate skin of infants and young children with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis
• Topline results anticipated in Q1 2026
• The U.S. FDA approved ZORYVE cream 0.05% for the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in children ages 2 to 5 years in October 2025
• Atopic dermatitis impacts 9.6 million children in the U.S., with up to 60% developing symptoms within their first year

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arcutis Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARQT), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing meaningful innovations in immuno-dermatology, today announced the enrollment of the last subject in the INTEGUMENT-INFANT Phase 2 open-label clinical study, which is evaluating the safety and tolerability of investigational once-daily ZORYVE (roflumilast) cream 0.05% in infants aged 3 months to less than 24 months with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis. ZORYVE cream is a highly selective and potent topical phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor formulated to address the unique needs of individuals with atopic dermatitis.

“Atopic dermatitis often presents in infancy and can cause significant discomfort from the itch and rash, and even disruption to sleep and social activities, which can negatively impact the affected child and the entire family,” said Patrick Burnett, MD, PhD, FAAD, chief medical officer at Arcutis. “Enrollment in the INTEGUMENT-INFANT study has been brisk, reflecting strong interest from parents seeking an alternative to topical corticosteroids. This clinical milestone represents a significant step in advancing a well-tolerated topical treatment for this vulnerable population, for whom FDA-approved options remain limited. We eagerly anticipate the study results as we continue to develop ZORYVE cream 0.05% as a potential new treatment for pediatric atopic dermatitis in infants as young as three months.”

About the INTEGUMENT-INFANT Study

The INTEGUMENT-INFANT Phase 2, open-label, multicenter study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of ZORYVE cream 0.05% applied once daily over a four-week period in 101 infants aged 3 months to less than 24 months with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis. The study builds upon the earlier Maximal Usage (MUSE) pharmacokinetics trial ARQ-151-105, which also evaluated ZORYVE cream 0.05% in this age group.

Topline results from the study are expected to be reported in Q1 2026.

About Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is the most common type of eczema, affecting approximately 9.6 million children and 16.5 million adults in the United States. Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, relapsing, and genetically predisposed inflammatory skin disease that has unique clinical presentations across the lifespan. The disease typically appears as a red, intensely itchy rash that can occur anywhere on the body. It presents differently in infants, children, and adults. Younger children typically have more widespread atopic dermatitis, including on the face, neck, and areas around the knees and elbows.

Atopic dermatitis is often initially diagnosed during childhood with approximately 60% of children developing symptoms within their first year. Pediatric atopic dermatitis can negatively impact the entire family by significantly disrupting sleep, increasing the risk of skin infections, and leading to developmental and emotional strain for both the child and caregivers.

About ZORYVE^® (roflumilast) 

ZORYVE is the number one prescribed branded topical therapy across three major inflammatory dermatoses combined—atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and plaque psoriasis. ZORYVE is a topical formulation of roflumilast, an advanced targeted topical phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitor. Inhibiting PDE4, an intracellular enzyme that is an established target in dermatology, decreases the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. This decreases inflammation in the skin and balances the skin’s immune system.

Demonstrating both clinical impact and broad industry recognition, ZORYVE has been honored with multiple prestigious awards and recommendations. ZORYVE was recently awarded by Allure with the "2025 Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award," making it the first FDA-approved medication for atopic dermatitis, plaque psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis to win this prominent award. ZORYVE cream 0.3% and ZORYVE foam 0.3% were also awarded the National Psoriasis Foundation’s Seal of Recognition — the first FDA-approved prescription brand to receive the honor. Additionally, the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) issued a strong recommendation for the use of ZORYVE cream 0.15% in adult patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis, according to updated guidelines released in June 2025. In 2024, ZORYVE cream 0.15% was awarded Glamour’s Beauty and Wellness Award for “Best Eczema Product.”
