Abstract

IDP-126 polymeric mesh gel (clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/benzoyl peroxide [BPO] 3.1%/adapalene 0.15%) is the first triple-combination, fixed-dose topical acne product in development and addresses major acne pathophysiological processes. IDP-126 demonstrated superior efficacy to vehicle and component dyads, with good safety/tolerability in a phase 2 study of patients with moderate-to-severe acne [1]. Two phase 1, randomized, evaluator-blinded, within-participant, dermal safety studies enrolled healthy participants aged ≥18 years (N=234, repeat insult patch test [RIPT]; N=45, cumulative irritation patch test [CIPT]). Patches were applied to the upper back multiple times over 6-8 weeks (RIPT) or every 24 hours for 21 days (CIPT). Patches contained: IDP-126 gel, vehicle gel, saline 0.9% (RIPT/CIPT), sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) 0.5% (CIPT), or branded BPO 2.5%/adapalene 0.3% gel (CIPT). Participants in each study received all treatments. Endpoints comprised sensitization potential (RIPT), mean cumulative/total irritation scores, and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Overall, irritation with IDP-126 was moderate and not clinically significant. CIPT: IDP-126 was “moderately irritating” (mean score: 1.29), which was significantly less irritating than BPO/adapalene (1.96; P<0.001), statistically similar to SLS (1.17), and more irritating than saline or vehicle (∼0.30; P<0.001). RIPT: no participants had investigator- confirmed sensitization to any treatments. In both studies, no TEAEs were related to treatment. In two phase 1 studies, fixed-dose, triple-combination clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/ BPO 3.1%/adapalene 0.15% polymeric mesh gel had moderate irritancy and no confirmed sensitization in healthy participants. Additionally, IDP-126 demonstrated significantly less irritation versus commercially available, branded BPO 2.5%/adapalene 0.3% gel. IDP-126 demonstrated good safety/tolerability, mirroring the phase 2 study results.
