Four of the responding patients (40.0%) had a complete response and 6 (60.0%) had a partial response. Average time to response was 2.5\u00a0months. Duration of treatment varied depending on whether patients had reached complete or partial remission. In general, alitretinoin was well tolerated. One of 11 patients developed high non\u2010fasting average serum cholesterol (&gt;300\u00a0mg\/dL) and 1\/11 a mean non\u2010fasting triglyceride value &gt;500\u00a0mg\/dL.
