* SkinBioTherapeutics PLC on Friday said it has received approval from regulators to sell AxisBiotix-Ps, a food supplement designed to treat symptoms of psoriasis, to consumers in France.

* SkinBio said psoriasis, which causes flaky and scale-like patches of skin to form, affects between 2% and 3% of the global population, with around two million sufferers in France. It said the AxisBiotix-Ps food supplement, which re-introduces the necessary gut bacteria to improve skin health, can be used over long periods unlike existing psoriasis treatments such as steroids.
* SkinBio previously gained regulatory approval in March to sell AxisBiotix-Ps in Spain, followed by Italy in June. The product is also available in the UK.
* On Friday SkinBio said it is in talks with other European regulators to expand the supplement's availability, but has not yet confirmed its next target country for launch.
