7:01AM Auxilium Pharma announces 'Encouraging' top-line 30-day data from XIAFLEX (CCH) Phase Ib study in cellulite (AUXL) 17.81 : Co announced top-line Day 30 data for collagenase clostridium histolyticum or CCH for the potential treatment, if approved by the U.S. FDA, of adult patients with cellulite. The phase Ib study is a single site, open-label dose-escalation study that enrolled 99 women between 21 and 60 years of age. The objectives of the study are to assess the safety and effectiveness of a single injection of CCH for the treatment of EFP at 30, 60 and 90 days across multiple dosing arms. Across all dosing arms, 60 patients (63%) who were treated experienced some improvement in the volume of their target cellulite dimple at Day 30. Overall, 17% of patients had a greater than or equal to 30% improvement in their target dimple at Day 30; however, multiple CCH dosing arms had more than 40 percent of patients experience an improvement greater than or equal to 30% in their target dimple at Day 30. Treatment-related adverse events with CCH were mostly localized bruising, injection site discomfort and swelling, and all such events resolved without intervention, which are all consistent with XIAFLEX use in other indications. There were no new adverse events and no drug-related serious adverse events reported.
