About this study

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness and tolerability of three concentrations of A-101 25%, 32.5%, and 40%, when applied to individual seborrheic keratosis target lesions on the back compared with a matching A-101 vehicle.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Is at least 18 years of age
  • Has a clinical diagnosis of stable clinically typical seborrheic keratosis
  • Has at least 4 appropriate seborrheic keratosis target lesions on the back
  • If subject is a women of childbearing potential, she must have a negative urine pregnancy test and must agree to use an active form of birth control for the duration of the study
  • Is non-pregnant and non-lactating
  • Is in good general health and free of any disease state or physical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, might impair evaluation of any target lesion or which exposes the subject to an unacceptable risk by study participation
  • Is willing and able to follow all study instructions and to attend all study visits
  • Is able to comprehend and willing to sign an Informed Consent Form (ICF).

Exclusion criteria

  • Has clinically atypical and/or rapidly growing seborrheic keratosis lesions
  • Has presence of multiple eruptive seborrheic keratosis lesions (Sign of Leser-Trelat)
  • Has used any of the following systemic therapies within the specified period prior to Visit 1:
  • Retinoids; 180 days
  • Glucocorticosteroids; 28 days
  • Anti-metabolites (e.g., methotrexate); 28 days
  • Has used any of the following topical therapies on the treatment area within the specified period prior to Visit 1:
  • Retinoids; 90 days
  • Liquid nitrogen, electrodesiccation, curettage, imiquimod, 5-fluorouracil, or ingenol mebutate; 60 days
  • Glucocorticosteroids or antibiotics; 14 days
  • Moisturizers/emollients, sunscreens; 12 hours
  • Has had any LASER, light (e.g., intense pulsed light (IPL), photo-dynamic therapy (PDT)) or other energy based therapy on the treatment area within 180 days prior to Visit 1
  • Has a history of keloid formation or hypertrophic scarring
  • Has a current systemic malignancy
  • Has a history of, within the 180 days prior to Visit 1, or has a current cutaneous malignancy on the treatment area
  • Has a current pre-malignancy (e.g., actinic keratosis) on the treatment area
  • Has had body art (e.g., tattoos, piercing, sculpting, etc.) or any other invasive, non-therapeutic procedure performed on the treatment area that, in the opinion of the investigator, might put the subject at undue risk or interfere with the study conduct or evaluations
  • Has excessive tan on the treatment area that, in the opinion of the investigator, might put the subject at undue risk or interfere with the study conduct or evaluations
  • Has experienced a sunburn on the treatment area within the previous 4 weeks
  • Has a history of sensitivity to any of the ingredients in the study medications
  • Has any current skin disease (e.g., psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, eczema, sun damage, etc.), or condition (e.g., sunburn, tattoos, excessive hair, open wounds on the back) that, in the opinion of the investigator, might put the subject at undue risk or interfere with the study conduct or evaluations
  • Has participated in an investigational drug trial in which administration of an investigational study medication occurred within 30 days prior to Visit 1.

Treatment and study plan

A-101 25%

Drug

Low Dose Concentration of A-101 applied to one of 4 Target Lesions

A-101 32.5%

Drug

Mid Dose Concentration of A-101 applied to one of 4 Target Lesions

A-101 40%

Drug

High Dose Concentration A-101 applied to one of 4 Target Lesions

A-101 Vehicle

Drug

Placebo applied to one of 4 Target Lesions

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Change in Physician Lesion Assessment Scale

    Time frame: Visit 2 to visit 9 (78 days)

    Mean Change in Score on the Physician Lesion Assessment Scale (PLA) of each Target Lesion. The PLAS is a four point scale from 0-3 with 0 being clear and 3 being the worst lesion.

    The primary effectiveness will consist of the mean change from Visit 2 to Visit 9 in PLA performed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) with Visit 2 PLAS as the covariate. Comparisons between vehicle and each active treatment group will be performed within the model using least-squares means and the common error term.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Subject's Self Assessment Scale

    Time frame: Visit 9 (Day 78)

    Subjects self assessment of the condition of their lesions based on a scale of Clear (Grade 0), Mild (Grade 1), Moderate (Grade 2), Severe (Grade 3).
