New Day™ Skin Spray, an FDA 510(k)-cleared prescription medical device developed and commercialized by Evolved Health, Inc., is now reaching patients through an initial launch in select markets. The topical emulsion spray is powered by a soluble silk fibroin peptide from Evolved By Nature's platform.
NEEDHAM, Mass., Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolved By Nature, Inc. today announced the first FDA 510(k) clearance for an Rx therapy built on its programmable peptide platform: New Day™ Skin Spray, a prescription topical emulsion spray for the management of atopic dermatitis, developed and commercialized by Evolved Health, Inc. The clearance marks the first time a product built on a peptide from Evolved By Nature's platform has completed the development and regulatory process required to reach patients in a regulated medical field.
Atopic dermatitis is a barrier disorder, and a compromised skin barrier is the structural origin of the flare cycle. As the barrier breaks down, irritants, allergens, and microbes penetrate the skin and drive the immune overreaction that sustains inflammation. Most existing prescription therapies intervene downstream, by suppressing that immune response. New Day™ Skin Spray, built on Evolved By Nature's peptide platform, works at the barrier itself: on application, the peptide matrix self-assembles into a flexible, breathable surface architecture that reinforces broken skin and limits penetration by irritants and pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus, a recognized contributor to atopic dermatitis severity. By reducing the stimulus load that perpetuates flares, New Day™ Skin Spray allows the skin to heal and calm its immune overreaction, giving healthcare practitioners a non-steroidal prescription option with no systemic exposure.
"What you're seeing in New Day™ Skin Spray is our core technology doing exactly what we built it to do: supply a foundation that another company can carry forward into real clinical utility. We spent over a decade building a platform capable of producing peptides at meaningful scale, and this is the first time a product from that platform has completed the development and regulatory process required to reach patients in a highly regulated field. It demonstrates the safety and scalability of what we've built. What took a decade to prove, we are now positioned to repeat far faster: AI is accelerating our ability to map, predict, and productize the millions of molecules already in our library, and we are moving with real conviction and speed into medical applications and biologics."
