Dr. Reddys Laboratories Ltd., through its wholly owned subsidiary Promius Pharma, LLC, announced today that it has out-licensed the future development, manufacturing, and commercialization rights of DFD-06, a topical high potency steroid, to Encore Dermatology Inc. The drug is intended to be used for treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
