spoke with David Fleischer, MD, professor of pediatrics at Children’s Hospital Colorado, about new data from the 

phase 3 VITESSE trial assessing the effectiveness of VIASKIN peanut patch (VP250)

 for building tolerance and increasing desensitization. The study showed that 82.8% of children who received VP250, compared with 48% on placebo, increased their eliciting dose over 12 months.

VP250, an epicutaneous immunotherapy containing 250 µg of peanut protein (1/1000th of a peanut kernel), is a non-invasive option for children with food allergy. Investigators evaluated the patch in 438 peanut-allergic children aged 4 – 7 years across 87 sites in Australia, Canada, Europe, and the US, compared with 216 controls.

VITESSE met its primary endpoint, with significantly more responding with VP250 versus placebo (46.3% vs 14.7% and 43.1% vs 14.6%) among children with baseline eliciting dose of ≤ 30 mg and 100 mg, respectively (

 <.001). In addition to the favorable response rate, 60% of patients in the VP250 arm, compared with 23.4% on placebo, improved by ≥ 2 dose levels during food challenge testing. The study also showed that children receiving the patch experienced a greater decline in their eliciting dose over the study period compared with those receiving the placebo.

DBV Technologies announced in late February 2026 that it plans to submit a Biologics License Application to the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) this year.

In this Q&A, Fleischer discusses the clinical significance of these findings and the next steps for research.

How clinically meaningful is the increase in eliciting dose observed with the VIASKIN Peanut Patch, particularly for children with lower baseline thresholds?

It's very important. Imagine being a parent of a food-allergic child and being worried about getting a phone call every day from school or from somewhere else. This really can translate into several peanuts of protection over time. If you get to several peanuts of protection, that's definitely going to translate into something clinically effective for patients… they can feel [assured] that they're not going to get that phone call from school.

What unanswered questions remain following the VITESSE trial?

There's more unanswered questions with respect to food allergy in general. I don't have many questions [about this]. This data continue[s] to show the same data that we've seen with previous studies around the safety, the practicality, and the efficacy of it, that it really works quite well.

We want to look long-term again to show that we get [a] continued effect. One thing that will be studied formally, which we have not looked at with this product, is…sustained unresponsiveness or remission. The idea is where you stop the therapy for a certain period of time, completely avoid peanut[s] in the product…not use it as treatment, and then challenge again to see if there's a sustained effect. We're going to do that for the first time in a large trial to see if there's a sustained effect of this product.

With a biologics license application planned for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, what milestones should clinicians be watching for as this therapy moves toward potential approval?

That filing is the big milestone that will be that would be a huge one, and then the FDA has a certain period of time to decide that. I can't foresee this product not getting approved. We've proven efficacy, we've proven safety, compliance, [and] practicality.

Can you discuss future research on this topic?

[Future research will] follow the patients over time with peanut allergy to continue to show that, if you continue to use this product.

[The company is] going to start the milk epicutaneous immunotherapy phase 2 trial, I believe, once [the] peanut [trial] moves along. They’re going to continue with other foods, which is exciting, because we need more options for other foods…including milk…egg, and tree nuts. Hopefully, the company will branch out into more foods besides milk.

Is there anything else you would like to highlight about this data?

It's fantastic data to show that epicutaneous immunotherapy, [at] such a low dose, works to desensitize the vast majority of patients to a level that I think will protect them clinically from allergic reactions, and it does it in a way that's extremely easy to be compliant with, which is important when you're using a daily therapy.

If it's not easy, you're not going to do it. If there's a lot of rules around it, it's going to be hard to do. This is almost set it and forget it.

To put [the patch] on, you'll have some skin reactions over time. But from a safety standpoint, the risk of anaphylaxis is 1- 2%, which I think is reasonable, certainly not as high as oral immunotherapy, which could be as high as 15%. I think there's no comparison there. The practicality, safety, and efficacy of this product [are] going to prove that it's going to be a true option that patients and families want to use.

Insmed announced today that the phase 3b ENCORE study of amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (Arikayce) plus guideline-based multidrug therapy met its primary endpoint and all multiplicity-controlled secondary culture conversion endpoints in patients with a new occurrence of 

 who had not previously received antibiotics.¹

The results fulfill a United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) post-marketing requirement and position Insmed to file a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) in the second half of 2026, seeking both label expansion into antibiotic-naïve MAC lung disease and conversion of the drug's existing accelerated approval for refractory MAC lung disease to traditional approval. A parallel submission to Japan's Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) is also planned.¹

ENCORE was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study enrolling 425 patients at 177 sites globally. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive once-daily amikacin liposome inhalation suspension 590 mg plus multidrug therapy (azithromycin 250 mg plus ethambutol 15 mg/kg) or inhaled placebo plus the same multidrug backbone for 12 months, followed by a 3-month treatment-free observation period for assessment of culture conversion durability. The enrolled population was predominantly treatment-naïve: 82.4% were experiencing their first MAC infection, while 17.6% had a second or third occurrence.¹

The primary endpoint was change from baseline in Respiratory Symptom Score at Month 13, derived from 8 items in the Quality of Life–Bronchiectasis (QoL-B) Respiratory Domain. Multiplicity-controlled secondary endpoints included culture conversion rates at months 6, 12, and 13; durable culture conversion at month 15; and change from baseline in PROMIS Fatigue T-score at month 13. A Japan-specific primary endpoint required achievement of both culture conversion by month 6 and durable culture conversion at month 15.¹

The primary endpoint was met. Patients receiving amikacin liposome inhalation suspension achieved a 17.77-point improvement from baseline in Respiratory Symptom Score at month 13 versus 14.66 points in the placebo arm, a treatment difference of 3.11 points (

All four multiplicity-controlled culture conversion endpoints were met with high statistical significance. Culture conversion by month 6 was achieved in 87.8% of amikacin liposome inhalation suspension-treated patients versus 57.0% of those receiving placebo — a difference of 30.8 percentage points (

 <.0001). Rates remained substantially higher in the amikacin liposome inhalation suspension arm at months 12 (84.7% vs 61.3%; difference 23.3%; 

 <.0001) and 13 (82.4% vs 55.6%; difference 26.8%; 

 <.0001). Durable culture conversion at month 15, assessed after treatment discontinuation, was achieved in 76.2% of amikacin liposome inhalation suspension patients compared to 47.6% in the placebo arm (difference 28.6%; 

The PROMIS Fatigue T-score endpoint did not reach statistical significance (-5.07 vs -4.27; difference -0.81; 

The overall safety profile was consistent with amikacin liposome inhalation suspension established label. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 98.1% of patients in the amikacin liposome inhalation suspension arm and 97.2% in the placebo arm, reflecting the serious underlying disease and the active multidrug backbone in both groups.¹ Severe TEAEs were observed in 15.0% and 10.4% of patients respectively, and serious TEAEs in 14.1% versus 11.3%. One death occurred in each treatment arm; neither was considered related to study treatment.¹

TEAEs occurring in ≥10% of patients and at higher rates in the amikacin liposome inhalation suspension arm included dysphonia (58.7% vs 8.5%), cough (32.9% vs 14.6%), fatigue (17.4% vs 11.3%), dyspnea (16.4% vs 5.7%), nausea (15.5% vs 12.7%), and headache (12.7% vs 11.8%).¹ The treatment discontinuation rate was 18.3% in the amikacin liposome inhalation suspension arm versus 11.8% in the placebo arm; study completion rates exceeded 90% in both groups (90.6% vs 93.4%).¹

Among AEs of special interest, bronchospasm (23.0% vs 11.8%) and hypersensitivity pneumonitis (2.3% vs 0%) occurred at notably higher rates with amikacin liposome inhalation suspension. In contrast, ototoxicity rates were comparable between arms (25.8% vs 22.6%), as were rates of pulmonary disease exacerbation (10.8% vs 9.9%), hemoptysis (10.3% vs 10.4%), neuromuscular disorders (2.3% vs 2.8%), and nephrotoxicity (0.5% vs 0%).¹

Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension currently holds accelerated approval in the US for adults with limited or no treatment alternatives who have refractory MAC lung disease — defined as failure to achieve culture negativity after at least 6 consecutive months of multidrug background therapy. That indication was granted on the basis of culture conversion data and carries a confirmatory trial requirement; ENCORE is the study intended to satisfy it.¹

The ENCORE population is meaningfully different from the refractory population in which ARIKAYCE was originally studied. Enrolling antibiotic-naïve patients with a new MAC infection represents an earlier, broader, and potentially larger patient population. MAC lung disease affects an estimated tens of thousands of patients in the US, predominantly women and older adults, with an increasing incidence particularly among those with bronchiectasis or other structural lung disease. Treatment is prolonged, culture conversion rates with guideline-based multidrug therapy alone are suboptimal, and relapse after apparent cure is common — all of which underscore the clinical significance of a 30-percentage-point improvement in culture conversion at month 6 and durable conversion rates exceeding 76% at month 15.

The multidrug regimen used in ENCORE — azithromycin plus ethambutol — reflects current guideline-recommended first-line therapy for MAC lung disease. Per the 2020 ATS/ERS/ESCMID/IDSA joint treatment guideline, macrolide-based combination therapy is the cornerstone of MAC management, with treatment continuing for at least 12 months following culture negativity.² Culture conversion rates with background multidrug therapy alone, however, remain suboptimal in clinical practice — a gap the ENCORE placebo arm's 57% conversion rate at month 6 reflects directly.

"These groundbreaking results show that patients may have significant clinical benefit from including ARIKAYCE as part of their multidrug treatment earlier in their MAC lung disease journey," said David Griffith, MD, ENCORE Steering Committee Member and Professor of Medicine at National Jewish Health. "The improvements in Respiratory Symptom Score alongside durable culture conversion highlight the potential for this medicine to make a substantial difference in outcomes for patients facing this serious and often progressive infection."¹

Insmed plans to present full ENCORE data at a future medical congress. The sNDA filing is anticipated in the second half of 2026, with the PMDA submission planned on the same timeline.¹

ENCORE, a global randomized double-blind phase 3b trial in largely antibiotic-naïve patients with new or recurrent MAC lung disease, showed benefit from adding inhaled amikacin liposome suspension to azithromycin plus ethambutol. Respiratory Symptom Score improved significantly at month 13, and culture conversion rates were markedly higher through months 6–13 with durable conversion at month 15 after therapy cessation. PROMIS Fatigue did not separate. Safety aligned with known tolerability, with more local respiratory adverse events and higher discontinuations. Regulatory filings are targeted for 2H 2026.

Phase 3b ENCORE shows inhaled ARIKAYCE boosts culture conversion and symptoms in antibiotic‑naïve MAC lung disease, paving way for 2026 label expansion.

Behind the Guidelines: Top Clinical Takeaways From the 2026 Dyslipidemia Guidelines

The 2026 ACC/AHA Dyslipidemia Guideline represents a transformative advance in cardiovascular risk management, which the organizations hope clinicians can navigate effectively by anchoring to a focused set of key principles cutting across the guideline's extensive breadth.

Pamela B. Morris, MD, vice chair of the writing committee, and Ann Marie Navar, MD, PhD, close the HCPLive Special Report series with a synthesis of the most clinically actionable updates. At the core of the guideline is a transition from the Pooled Cohort Equations to the AHA PREVENT equations, providing more accurate absolute risk estimates and enabling risk assessment beginning at age 30. When treatment decisions remain uncertain in borderline-to-intermediate risk patients, the Calculate-Personalize-Reclassify model using coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring offers a structured framework for individualized decision-making. Any nonzero CAC score signals subclinical atherosclerosis and triggers risk-stratified treatment goals; a score above 300 approaches the risk profile of secondary prevention, and a score above 1,000 warrants very high-risk management.

Universal Lp(a) measurement, at least once in all adults, is now a Class I recommendation, alongside the first-ever US guideline inclusion of apolipoprotein B for selected populations. 

Absolute LDL cholesterol goals have been restored: 

Less than 55 mg/dL for very high-risk patients

Less than 70 mg/dL for high-risk individuals

Less than 100 mg/dL for primary prevention

With the principle lower is always better applied across all risk categories.

The therapeutic armamentarium has expanded substantially since 2018. Beyond statins and ezetimibe, clinicians now have access to bempedoic acid, PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies, inclisiran, and, for select populations, evinacumab and APOC3 inhibitors. As Navar summarizes, patients and clinicians alike can orient around three numbers, 55, 70, and 100, as guiding targets for the highest-risk, intermediate, and lower-risk groups, respectively. The tools to achieve LDL goals for even the most complex patients now exist; the priority must shift to ensuring those tools are applied.

Morris has no relevant disclosures to report. Navar reports disclosures with Amge, Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, AstraZeneca, Bayer, Eli Lilly and Company, Esperion, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Miga Health, NewAmsterdam Pharma, Novartis, Novo Nordisk, Sanofi, and Silence Therapeutics, among others.

Understanding New Recommendations on FH and High Trigs in 2026 Dyslipidemia Guidelines

The 2026 ACC/AHA Dyslipidemia Guideline provides its most granular guidance yet for patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and severe hypertriglyceridemia, with new genetic testing recommendations, a novel therapy for homozygous FH, and the first extensive management framework for triglyceride-related risk across the full severity spectrum.

Writing committee members Pamela B. Morris, MD, and Ann Marie Navar, MD, PhD, walk through four distinct patient groups defined by LDL elevation and FH status. For patients with LDL cholesterol above 190 mg/dL without meeting clinical or genetic FH criteria, the LDL goal is less than 100 mg/dL, with combination therapy recommended when statins alone are insufficient. 

Heterozygous FH carries a more aggressive target of less than 70 mg/dL, reflecting the cumulative cardiovascular risk conferred by years of elevated LDL exposure. In patients with heterozygous FH and established ASCVD, the goal tightens further to less than 55 mg/dL. For homozygous FH, a rare but severe condition in which minimal to absent LDL receptor function renders most conventional therapies substantially less effective, the guideline introduces evinacumab, an ANGPTL3 inhibitor lowering LDL through a mechanism entirely independent of LDL receptor upregulation. 

Both evinacumab and lomitapide receive Class IIb recommendations in this population. Genetic testing for FH is now formally recommended, as monogenic variants can be identified in patients with LDL levels below the 190 mg/dL threshold, and genetic confirmation facilitates cascade screening among at-risk family members.

In hypertriglyceridemia, the guideline, reflecting its renamed scope as a dyslipidemia rather than blood cholesterol document, establishes ASCVD risk, not pancreatitis, is the primary concern for most patients with triglycerides below 500 mg/dL, reinforcing statin therapy as foundational in this group. Above 500–1000 mg/dL, fibrates and high-dose prescription omega-3 fatty acids are appropriate adjuncts. 

For patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), a rare condition marked by severe triglyceride elevation and recurrent pancreatitis resistant to standard lipid-lowering therapy, olezarsen, an APOC3 inhibitor, is now recommended. Plozasiran, approved after the guideline's evidence review concluded, represents an additional emerging option. Morris and Navar also recommend referral to a registered dietitian for patients at risk of pancreatitis, given the complexity of dietary management in severe hypertriglyceridemia.

Understanding Secondary Prevention Goals, Novel Lipid Therapies from 2026 Dyslipidemia Guidelines

Secondary prevention in the 2026 ACC/AHA Dyslipidemia Guideline is defined by an intensified focus on achieving LDL cholesterol goals rapidly and systematically, with a tiered framework distinguishing very high-risk patients from the broader ASCVD population and introducing updated guidance on sequencing of both established and newer lipid-lowering agents.

Ann Marie Navar, MD, PhD, a writing committee member and cardiovascular prevention specialist, outlines the characteristics defining very high-risk status: two or more prior cardiovascular events, or a single prior event accompanied by two or more high-risk features such as age over 65, active smoking, diabetes, heart failure, hypertension, or LDL above 100 mg/dL despite statin and ezetimibe therapy. For these individuals, the LDL cholesterol goal is less than 55 mg/dL. 

The guideline acknowledges this threshold represents an area of ongoing evidence generation. Data from the VESALIUS trial, which examined PCSK9 inhibition in a lower-risk ASCVD population, were unavailable during the evidence review period closing in April 2025. For patients with ASCVD not meeting very high-risk criteria, an LDL target of less than 70 mg/dL is recommended, though the guideline offers an optional recommendation of less than 55 mg/dL for clinicians preferring a uniform target across the ASCVD population.

When statins alone are insufficient to achieve goal, the guideline provides Class I recommendations for the addition of ezetimibe and/or bempedoic acid and/or a PCSK9 monoclonal antibody. Bempedoic acid, newly approved since the 2018 guideline, now carries cardiovascular outcomes support from clinical trial data in statin-intolerant patients across both primary and secondary prevention settings. Inclisiran, a small interfering RNA targeting PCSK9, receives a Class IIa recommendation for patients unable to access or tolerate PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies, with cardiovascular outcomes data still pending.

Navar and committee vice chair Pamela B. Morris, MD, note ezetimibe and statins remain the most accessible starting point given their generic availability and tolerability profile. Selection among newer agents depends on patient preference, comorbidities, bempedoic acid is contraindicated in patients with gout, and the realities of insurance coverage and drug access, which vary substantially across practice settings.
