Verrica Pharmaceuticals on Friday said the Food and Drug
Administration approved Ycanth topical solution to treat molluscum
contagiosum in adults and patients ages two and up.
The dermatology therapeutics company said it plans to make
Ycanth available by September.
Molluscum contagiosum is an infection caused by a poxvirus,
which can result in a benign, mild skin disease characterized by
growths on the body.
Chief Executive Ted White said molluscum contagiosum primarily
affects children and is commonly transmitted in households, schools
and swimming pools through skin-to-skin contact given its highly
contagious nature.
Trading of the company's stock was halted at 3:58 p.m. ET ahead
of the news.
