Clinical Efficacy And ProspectsJNJ-2113's Phase 2b psoriasis data show efficacy better than any available oral therapy and equivalent to injectables, signaling a high probability of success for the four Phase 3 studies.
Market OpportunityJNJ-2113, with its potential to serve a large unmet need for a safe oral treatment, is well-positioned to capture a share of the $35 billion psoriasis market, which is expected to be more receptive to new oral options.
Pipeline And CollaborationsProtagonist's peptide technology platform has produced two Phase 3-stage candidates targeting multi-billion dollar market opportunities, supported by a strong partnership in developing an oral IL-23 inhibitor for psoriasis and an iron modulator for polycythemia vera.
