Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, and sequential group Phase 2 study. Eligible subjects aged 18 to 75 years old with PWB will receive Hemoporfin PDT or vehicle PDT in 8-week cycles at fixed drug dose (5 mg/kg) and different light fluence.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, and sequential group Phase 2 study. Eligible subjects aged 18 to 75 years old with PWB will receive Hemoporfin PDT or vehicle PDT in cycles at fixed drug dose (5 mg/kg) and different light fluences. This study will be conducted in two sequential stages, each contains the same schedule, which includes Screening Period, Treatment Period apart; subsequent treatment is based on efficacy evaluation, and End of Study.

4. A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:

Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) . OR A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance during the Treatment Period and for at least 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.
5. The subject has a clinical diagnosis of PWB located i) on the extremities, trunk, caudal cervical and/or retroauricular area (Stage One); ii) on the face and/or neck (Stage Two).
6. The longest diameter of the treatment area is ≥3 cm, and the short diameter is ≥2 cm.
7. Subject is capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.
8. Subject, in the Investigator's opinion, is in good general health and free of any disease state or physical condition that may impair the evaluation of PWB or expose the subject to an unacceptable risk by study participation.
9. If the subject has a history of epilepsy or seizure, the disease must remain stable for at least 6 months prior to C1D1.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Subject is pregnant, lactating, or is planning to become pregnant during the study.
2. Subject has plaque/nodular changes and severe hypertrophy within the target PWB area.
3. Subject has Sturge-Weber syndrome.
