ANZUPGO (delgocitinib)

Janus Kinase Inhibitors Genetically Validated Trial Activity: Stable 2 active trials
Fast Track
Dermatology Approved 2025-07-23

ANZUPGO is a topical medication that treats adults with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema. It helps patients who have not seen enough improvement with topical corticosteroids or for whom those treatments are not recommended. To ensure safety, this therapy should not be used in combination with other JAK inhibitors or potent immunosuppressants.

How ANZUPGO Works

This medication works by inhibiting the activity of Janus kinase enzymes, specifically JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2. By blocking these targets, the drug prevents the activation and movement of signaling proteins into the cell nucleus, which stops the expression of certain genes.

How We Calculate These Metrics

Trial Activity Stage

Measures the current development activity pattern based on trial phases, status, and trends. Important: This measures R&D activity, not commercial lifecycle.

Trial statuses: "Active" means recruiting or ongoing. "Completed" means reached planned endpoint. "Terminated" means stopped early—often due to safety, efficacy, or business reasons.

  • Growth: High proportion of early-phase trials (Phase 1/2), active development
  • Expansion: Significant Phase 3 activity, approaching or pursuing approvals
  • Mature: Substantial Phase 4 post-marketing studies
  • Stable: Mixed phase distribution, steady development
  • Declining: Low active trial ratio, reduced R&D investment
