Frequently asked questions about envudeucitinib

What is Envudeucitinib used for?

Envudeucitinib is an investigational small molecule kinase inhibitor being developed for plaque psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and hepatic impairment. It is currently in Phase 2 clinical development for these indications.

What does Envudeucitinib target?

Envudeucitinib is a small molecule that belongs to the -tinib class of kinase inhibitors. It is being studied for its effects in immunology-related conditions, specifically plaque psoriasis and SLE.

Who makes Envudeucitinib?

Envudeucitinib is being developed by Alumis Inc., a biopharmaceutical company. Alumis Inc. is publicly traded under the ticker symbol ALMS.

What phase is Envudeucitinib in?

Envudeucitinib is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. Clinical trials are ongoing to evaluate its safety and efficacy.

What clinical trials is Envudeucitinib in?

Envudeucitinib is being studied in four clinical trials. Two are active: NCT05739435, an open-label extension in plaque psoriasis, and NCT05966480, a placebo-controlled study in SLE. Two Phase 3 trials, NCT06588738 and NCT06846541, are listed as completed or active, though the drug is still in Phase 2.

Is Envudeucitinib the same as ESK-001?

Envudeucitinib is also known as ESK-001. Clinical trial records refer to the drug as ESK-001, and it is being evaluated under this name in studies for plaque psoriasis and SLE.
