Quoin Pharmaceuticals’ Latest NETHERTON NOW Video Details the Life of a Family Living with Netherton Syndrome

  • Quoin Pharmaceuticals released the latest episode of its NETHERTON NOW video series featuring mother Kristi Kristofferson, her daughter Kodi (who has Netherton Syndrome), and pediatric dermatologist Moise Levy, MD.
  • Kodi was diagnosed shortly after birth when medical staff observed red knuckles, leading to a 10-day NICU stay & identification via hair microscopy & genetic testing.
  • The disease delayed Kodi's motor development due to pain, requiring occupational, physical, & speech therapy alongside myofascial treatment.
  • Daily life involves a painful morning & evening routine where the family soaks skin in wet towels & peels off layers, often resulting in tears.
  • Kodi's skin regenerates 20 to 30 times faster than an average child, necessitating a high-protein diet to support rapid cell turnover.
  • Kristi emphasizes the need for public & school education to address misunderstandings, bullying, & insensitive questions regarding the visible skin condition.
  • Quoin's investigational product QRX003 is currently in a Phase 2/3 clinical trial, with interim results in August showing statistical significance on primary & key secondary endpoints.
  • Quoin expects to complete full recruitment for the QRX003 study by the end of 2026 & plans to report topline data in the second quarter of 2027.
  • Netherton Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by SPINK5 gene mutations that causes severe skin barrier dysfunction, scaling, & itching, with no currently FDA-approved therapies.
  • QRX003 is a topical serine protease inhibitor lotion that has received Orphan Drug, Rare Pediatric Disease, & Fast Track designations from the U.S. FDA.
