Sebacia Announces Oral Presentations Reporting 24-Month EU Real-World Data and 3-Month U.S. Real-World Data of Sebacia Microparticles at ASDS Annual Meeting 2019

DULUTH, Ga., Oct. 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sebacia, Inc., a privately held, commercial stage dermatology and aesthetics company, today announced that new long-term, real-world data from two studies evaluating the Company's proprietary Sebacia Microparticles will be featured in two separate oral presentations during the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) Annual Meeting, being held October 24-27, 2019 in Chicago, IL.

Jill S. Waibel, MD, board-certified dermatologist practicing at the Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute, will present the latest results with follow-up out to two years in patients from the Company's ongoing EU real-world registry study. The study was designed to evaluate acne outcomes in patients that received treatment with common first-line topical acne pharmaceuticals prior to the Sebacia treatment.

Ashish Bhatia, MD, board-certified dermatologist practicing at Oak Dermatology in the greater Chicago area and Clinical Associate Professor at the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University, will present the three month results from the Company's ongoing U.S. real-world registry study – an open-label, multi-center study that was initiated in the fourth quarter of 2018, following FDA clearance. The study was designed to largely mirror the European study presented by Dr. Waibel and will continue to gather long-term follow-up data in these patients.

Cory Anderson, VP, Clinical Marketing and Business Development, said, "This is a pivotal time for Sebacia as we initiate our targeted launch of Sebacia Microparticles in the U.S. The new results to be presented at ASDS by Dr. Waibel and Dr. Bhatia provide clinicians with additional data about how Sebacia Microparticles can be used to generate clinically meaningful reduction in acne for patients over the long-term."
