Hoth Therapeutics (HOTH) said Tuesday interim results from a phase 2a trial of HT-001 showed that all patients met the primary efficacy endpoint.
The trial demonstrated improvements in skin toxicities caused by epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, with all patients maintaining full cancer treatment doses, the company said.
Hoth reported no treatment-related adverse effects, noting HT-001's safety and tolerability.
The company's shares were up over 94% in recent early Tuesday trading.
