All rights reserved. OBJECTIVE METHODS RESULTS INTRODUCTION ©2023 Primus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Scottsdale, AZ 85253 To further assess the e�cacy of BDS versus BDL in patients with moderate plaque psoriasis using pooled data from two Phase 3 clinical trials. Pooled e�cacy analysis included patients with stable disease (present for ≥ 3 months), an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) = 3, and a Body Surface Area (BSA) of 10-20% who received either BDS (N = 356) or BDL (N = 90). E�cacy included the proportion of patients with success de�ned as an IGA = 0 or 1 (none or minimal) and ≥ 2-grade improvement at day 15; the proportion of patients with a TSS50 (Total Sign Score improvement of at least 50%); the proportion of patients with a TSS = 0 or 1 (clear or slight to mild) strati�ed by sign; and the relative proportion of patients receiving BDS (within group) with a TSS = 0 or 1 strati�ed by sign. Statistical analysis included a Fisher’s Exact (2-tail) test for categorical data. Success based on IGA was greater for BDS versus BDL at days 4 (2.2% versus 1.1%, P = 0.6941), 8 (11.5% versus 6.7%, P = 0.2480), and 15 (20.2% versus 18.9%, P = 0.8829), but not statistically signi�cant. The proportion of patients with a TSS50 was greater for BDS at days 4 (13.2% versus 5.6%, P = 0.0438), 8 (34.7% versus 29.2%, P = 0.3789), and 15 (51.0% versus 42.0%, P = 0.1523) with statistical signi�cance at day 4. The proportion of patients with a TSS = 0 or 1 strati�ed by sign is presented in Table 1. Statistically signi�cant superiority was observed in patients receiving BDS versus BDL for erythema at day 4, and scaling at days 4 and 15. Within group (BDS) comparisons for each TSS sign are presented in Table 2. The proportion of patients with a TSS = 0 or 1 was statistically greater for scaling versus erythema and plaque elevation at all time points. Success was similar between a novel mid-potent formulation of betamethasone dipropionate 0.05% spray (BDS) and super-high potency augmented betamethasone dipropionate 0.05% lotion (BDL). Patients receiving BDS achieved greater treatment e�cacy regarding scaling than those receiving BDL. BDS was most successful within group in the treatment of scaling versus erythema and plaque elevation.

In vitro testing has proven greater residence time for BDS within the skin compared to super-high potency augmented betamethasone dipropionate 0.05% lotion (BDL - Diprolene®, Organon).1 In two identically designed Phase 3 trials, BDS showed statistically signi�cant superiority over vehicle in both studies, and equivalence to BDL in Study 1 in terms of treatment success.2-4 Data from these two Phase 3 trials have been pooled to further evaluate the e�ectiveness of BDS versus BDL.
