Shares in London-based Amryt Pharma (AIM: AMYT) were up around 50% in morning trading on Tuesday, following positive top-line results from a Phase III study of Filsuvez (oleogel-S10), a topical therapeutic gel.

The firm, which is focused on serious and life-threatening diseases, said the EASE trial met its primary endpoint in the treatment of a rare skin condition.
