SOOLANTRA® (ivermectin) Cream, 1% gives patients more time ‘clear’ (IGA 0) from the inflammatory lesions of rosacea1

Better results with SOOLANTRA Cream vs METROCREAM Topical Cream, 0.75% confirmed in the first and only large-scale rosacea relapse study.1

The efficacy and safety of SOOLANTRA Cream QD and METROCREAM Topical Cream, 0.75% BID was evaluated in subjects with inflamatory lesions of rosacea over a 16-week treatment period, continuing to the 36-week extension evaluating relapse after a treament-free period.1,2

Offering relief to your patients for longer

At the end of the 36-week extension study:

In a head to head trial with MetroCream Topical Cream, nearly 1 out of 3 Soolantra patients remained clear or almost clear at 1 year and 33% more subjects had no rosacea relapse with Soolantra vs. MetroCream.

patients were still ‘clear’ (IGA 0) or ‘almost clear’ (IGA 1) at year 1 with SOOLANTRA Cream vs METROCREAM Topical cream, 0.75% (32% vs 24%), observed every 4 weeks from Week 16 to Week 521†

Clear defined as IGA 0 according to IGA scale (Investigator Global Assessment), which is commonly used by dermatologists IGA=Investigator’s Global Assessment.

Study Design

A phase 3, investigator-blinded, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group study comparing the efficacy and safety of SOOLANTRA Cream once daily with METROCREAM Topical Cream, 0.75% twice daily in 962 subjects aged 18 years and older with moderate to severe papulopustular rosacea (Investigator’s Global Assessment [IGA] score of 3 or 4) over a 16-week treatment period (Part A). A total of 757 successfully treated subjects, rated clear or almost clear (IGA score of 0 or 1), continued to the 36-week extension evaluating relapse after a treatment-free period (Part B).1,2

In Part B, subjects were followed every 4 weeks for up to 36 additional weeks (Weeks 16-52). If relapse (defined as IGA score of ≥2 [mild, moderate, or severe]) occurred, subjects were re-treated with the same treatment they had received during the initial 16-week study (Part A). Re-treatment was stopped when subject(s) achieved an IGA of ≤1 (clear or almost clear), with a maximum duration of re-treatment of 16 consecutive weeks to mimic the Part A treatment duration. Several re-treatment periods were permitted.1
