ASHBURN, Va., June 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quoin Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: QNRX) (the “Company” or “Quoin”), a clinical stage specialty pharmaceutical company focused on rare and orphan diseases, today announces that it will expand its ongoing Netherton Syndrome clinical studies to include international sites.

We hope that the opening of this first international site, which is currently treating Netherton patients, will speed up overall recruitment into our studies whilst expanding the diversity of the patient population being tested. We are working hard to open additional international sites to augment the five sites that are currently open in the US. Quoin is committed to completing recruitment into our clinical studies as expeditiously as possible with a view to potentially delivering the first approved treatment to this underserved patient population.”
