“We also continue to pursue the broader opportunities for hedgehog pathway inhibition that we outlined last quarter.”
Mori Arkin, Executive Chairman of Sol-Gel
“The studies of topical patidegib as a neo-adjuvant ahead of Mohs surgery, and for the prevention of high-frequency BCC (HF-BCC) which we announced in August, respond to interest we hear directly from surgeons, and we continue to evaluate an intra-cystic injectable for odontogenic keratocysts, a manifestation of Gorlin syndrome that often requires repeated surgical interventions.”
Mori Arkin, Executive Chairman of Sol-Gel
“Our immediate priority remains maximizing the commercial potential of Gorlin syndrome therapy, while these additional programs are intended to expand the therapeutic applications of hedgehog pathway inhibition.”

(NASDAQ: SLGL), a dermatology company, pioneering treatments for patients with rare and severe skin conditions, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provided a corporate update.
Q3 2026 and Recent Corporate Developments * On September 17, 2026, Sol-Gel announced that the last patient had completed the last scheduled study visit in its pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial (SGT-610-01) of SGT-610 (patidegib gel, 2%) for the prevention of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions in adult patients with Gorlin syndrome. Of the 113 patients enrolled in the randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled study, 102 completed the study, a completion rate of approximately 90%. The primary endpoint of the study is the number of new BCCs on the face at month 12 after twice-daily treatment. Secondary endpoints include the number of new surgically eligible BCCs (SEBs). Top-line results are expected in late November 2026. * On October 14, 2026, Sol-Gel hosted a KOL Investor Event in New York featuring Ervin Epstein Jr., MD (Alta Bates Summit Medical Center), Kavita Sarin, MD, PhD (Stanford Cancer Institute), Elizabeth M. Billingsley, MD (Penn State College of Medicine) and Julie Breneiser, PA-C (Gorlin Syndrome Alliance). The event addressed the disease burden of Gorlin syndrome, the limitations of current surgical and off-label systemic management, and the potential role of SGT-610 in preventing the development of new basal cell carcinomas (BCCs), with the goal of reducing the need for repeated surgical interventions. A replay of the webcast and the presentation materials are available on the Investor Relations section of the Company's website. * Sol-Gel continues to advance its U.S. commercial readiness activities for SGT-610. If approved, the Company intends to retain full U.S. commercial rights and to commercialize SGT-610 through a cost-effective model utilizing an experienced third-party commercialization services organization, reaching the concentrated Gorlin syndrome treating population through a small, focused field organization supported by outsourced commercial infrastructure. Market access, distribution, patient support and medical affairs planning are progressing in preparation for a potential U.S. launch.
