SEYSARA (sarecycline hydrochloride)

Increasing the SEYSARA dose from 60 to 150 mg once daily in healthy subjects resulted in a slightly less than proportional increase in sarcyeline steady-state C max and AUC tau . A mean accumulation ratio of sarecycline ranges from 1.5 to 1.6 fold with repeated dosing. Steady-state of sarecycline was reached by Day 7.

AbsorptionThe median time to peak plasma concentration (T max ) of sarecycline is 1.5 to 2.0 hours. Effect of Food Coadministration with a high-fat (approximately 50% of total cal...

The safety and efficacy of once daily SEYSARA was assessed in two 12-week multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies (Study 1 [NCT02320149] and Study 2 [NCT02322866]).

The two co-primary efficacy endpoints were: Percentage of subjects with Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) success: a score of cl...
