Study of A-101 for the Treatment of Seborrheic Keratosis

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the dose-response relationship of 2 concentrations of A-101 Solution and its matching A-101 Solution Vehicle when applied to seborrheic Keratosis (SK) target lesions on the face. A further objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 concentrations of A-101 Solution and its matching A-101 Solution Vehicle when applied topically up to 2 times to SK target lesions on the face.
