Brief Summary

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

Verasone™ is an aqueous suspension of the combination of two marketed drugs to be dosed by sinonasal irrigation in the treatment of Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS). This Phase 1 first-in-human study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple ascending doses of Verasone versus placebo in healthy normal participants and will evaluate the PK profiles of the Verasone active components administered individually vs in combination.
