Phase 3 Trial Confirms Roflumilast Foam's Effectiveness for Scalp and Body Psoriasis
9 May 2025 • In the ARRECTOR phase 3 trial, roflumilast foam (0.3%) significantly improved psoriasis symptoms on the scalp and body, outperforming a vehicle control in both efficacy and safety.
66.4% of roflumilast-treated patients achieved clear or almost clear scalp psoriasis (S-IGA success) vs. 27.8% with the vehicle. Body-IGA success rates were 45.5% vs. 20.1%, and more patients reached PASI-75 and PSSI-75 (50.1% vs. 16.8%). The treatment was well-tolerated, with minimal adverse events.
These findings position roflumilast foam as a promising monotherapy for managing psoriasis.
