Brief Summary

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

The goal of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the topical application of SOF-SKN in healthy volunteers. The study will be divided into part 1 and part 2.

Part 1, is a single ascending dose (SAD) design, while Part 2 is a multiple ascending dose (MAD) design.

Detailed Description

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

The study will contain four, single ascending dose-escalation cohorts and four multiple dose-escalation cohorts allowing an exploration of different doses of SOF-SKN with safety monitoring to ensure the safety of the participants.

A maximum of thirty-two (32) participants will be enrolled overall, with a maximum of sixteen (16) participants enrolled into each part of the study.

There is to be a 28-day Screening period (Day -28 to -1) for both Part 1 and 2 of the study.

Both SAD and MAD will include four treatment cohorts (0.25%, 0.5%, 1% and 2%) of SOF-SKN.

Participants enrolled Part 1 (SAD) will receive a single dose of 2 g Soft-SKN cream while the participants enrolled in Part 2 (MAD) will receive daily applications of 2 g SOF-SKN cream for 14 days.

Cohort 1

Single application of 2 g SOF-SKN cream 2.5 mg/g (0.25% w/w) applied topically to 10 × 30 cm area on the left or right side of the participant's back. In addition, a single 2 g application of placebo cream, to serve as an intra-participant control, will be applied to a 10 × 30 cm area on the alternate side of the participant's back.
