Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and dose-response of 2 concentrations of A-101 versus a vehicle control in the treatment of seborrheic keratosis.

Description:

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.

6. Subject is non-pregnant and non-lactating

7. Subject is in good general health and free of any known disease state or physical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, might impair evaluation of the target lesion or which exposes the subject to an unacceptable risk by study participation

8. Subject is willing and able to follow all study instructions and to attend all study visits

9. Subject is able to comprehend and willing to sign an Informed Consent Form (ICF).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject has clinically atypical and/or rapidly growing seborrheic keratosis lesions

4. Subject has a history of keloid formation or hypertrophic scarring

5. Subject has used any of the following systemic therapies within the specified period

prior to Visit 1:

• Retinoids; 180 days

• Anti-metabolites (e.g., methotrexate); 28 days

6. Subject has used any of the following topical therapies within the specified period prior to Visit 1 on, or in a proximity to the target lesion, which in the investigator's opinion, interferes with the application of the study medication or the

study assessments:

• LASER, light (e.g., intense pulsed light (IPL), photo-dynamic therapy(PDT)) or other energy based therapy; 180 days
• Retinoids; 28 days

• Glucocortico-steroids or antibiotics; 14 days

7. Subject currently has or has had any of the following within the specified period prior to Visit 1 on, or in a proximity to the target lesion, which in the investigator's opinion, interferes with the application of the study medication or the

study assessments :

• Body art (e.g., tattoos, piercing, etc.); currently
• Excessive tan; currently

8. Subject has a history of sensitivity to any of the ingredients in the study medications

9. Subject has any current skin disease (e.g., psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, eczema, sun damage, etc.), or condition (e.g., sunburn, excessive hair, open wounds) which, in the investigator's opinion, might put the subject at undue risk by study participation or interfere with the study conduct or evaluations

10. Subject has participated in an investigational drug trial in which administration of an investigational study medication occurred within 30 days prior to Visit 1.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of PLA Responders With Target Lesion Clear (PLA = 0) in Each Arm at Visit 8.	The primary effectiveness analysis was a comparison between each A-101 group and the vehicle group based on the percentage with target lesions judged to be clear on the PLA (PLA = 0) at Visit 8. The three arms of the study are A-101 40% Topical Solution, A-101 32.5% Topical Solution, and A-101 0% Topical Solution (vehicle). The Physician's Lesion Analysis ( PLA) is a 4 point scale from 0 to 3, with 0 being lesion clear and 3 being the most severe lesion. A larger proportion of subjects with a PLA =0 is better.	Day 106
Secondary	Mean Change From Baseline PLA Score at Visit 8	A secondary efficacy analysis was the mean change from baseline PLA Score at visit 8. The three arms of the study are A-101 40% Topical Solution, A-101 32.5% Topical Solution, and A-101 0% Topical Solution (vehicle). The Physician's Lesion Analysis ( PLA) is a 4 point scale from 0 to 3, with 0 being lesion clear and 3 being the most severe lesion. A larger proportion of subjects with a PLA =0 is better. A lower (more negative) mean change is a better outcome.	Day 106
