RITUXIMAB
Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody
Intravenous rituximab 2x 1000 mg (2 weeks apart) or 4x 375 m2/1 week apart
Treatment can be repeated with 500 mg rituximab in case of clinical relapse or as early as 6 months after treatment
Rituximab can be combined with short term (<4mo) systemic corticosteroids and long term (>12 mon) immunosuppressive treatment
Unforeseen fatal infections such as progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy (PML) cannot be estimated due to the rarity of pemphigus

ACNE
ADAPALENE AND BENZOYL PEROXIDE TOPICAL GEL, 0.3%/2.5% W/W (GALDERMA) Study Design:
Phase III, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, vehicle- and active-controlled study
Stratification: 50% moderate (IGA 3, n=251) + 50% severe (IGA 4, n=252)
Randomization: 3:3:1 (TactuPump Forte: TactuPump: topical vehicle gel)
Scarring has not been addressed by another marketed topical
The synergistic effect of the fixed dose combination increases the anti-inflammatory response, potentially reducing the risk of scarring
This therapy should be considered for patients who are prone to or at risk for scarring (? All our patients)
