Frequently asked questions about EQ101

What is EQ101 used for?

EQ101 is being developed for the treatment of moderate to severe alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. It is an investigational small molecule being studied in adults 18 years and older. Equillium, Inc. is evaluating it in a Phase 2 clinical program.

What does EQ101 target?

EQ101 targets CD6, a protein receptor expressed on the surface of T cells. CD6 is involved in T cell activation and trafficking, processes implicated in autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. By binding CD6, EQ101 is designed to modulate T cell activity relevant to alopecia areata.

Who is developing EQ101?

EQ101 is being developed by Equillium, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company that trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol EQ. Equillium is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating EQ101 in alopecia areata.

What phase is EQ101 in?

EQ101 is in Phase 2 clinical development for alopecia areata. It is an investigational therapy and has not been approved by the FDA. The Phase 2 study of EQ101 in adults with moderate to severe alopecia areata has been completed.

What clinical trials is EQ101 in?

EQ101 has been studied in one Phase 2 trial, NCT05589610, titled Study of EQ101 in Adult Subjects With Moderate to Severe Alopecia Areata. The trial enrolled 36 adults across Australia and New Zealand and has been completed. It was an uncontrolled study without randomization or blinding.

What kind of drug is EQ101?
