6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
In three double-blind, vehicle-controlled clinical trials (Trial 1, and Trial 2 and Trial 3, which were similarly designed to Trial 1), 1596 adult and pediatric subjects were treated with ZELSUVMI or vehicle gel topically once daily for up to 12 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14) ].
In these trials 3% of subjects were less than 2 years of age, and 96% of subjects were 2 to 17 years of age.
The trial population included 51% male, 88% White, 6% Black, and 6% Other;
for ethnicity, 21% of subjects identified as Hispanic/Latino, 78% as non-Hispanic/Latino, and 1% were not reported.
Adverse reactions reported by ≥1% of subjects and more frequently than vehicle-treated subjects are listed in Table

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Application Site Reactions: Application site reactions, including allergic contact dermatitis, occurred.
Discontinue ZELSUVMI and initiate appropriate therapy.
( 5.1 ) 5.1 Application Site Reactions Application site reactions, including allergic contact dermatitis, have occurred in patients treated with ZELSUVMI.
Suspect allergic contact dermatitis in the event of pain, pruritus, swelling or erythema at the application site lasting longer than 24 hours.
If allergic contact dermatitis occurs, discontinue ZELSUVMI and initiate appropriate therapy.
Like all medications, Zelsuvmi can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
