  • Approximately 57% of participants receiving 12 mg of CTP-543 twice-daily following 52 weeks of dosing achieved a clinically meaningful disease severity score of 20 or less. 
  • Dosing in the long-term extension study is ongoing, and patients completing the ongoing Phase 3 THRIVE-AA trials are eligible to enroll in the study. 
  • These data will be presented virtually during the virtual JAK Inhibitors Drug Development Summit.
  • The company plans to file a marketing application in early 2023.
