About this study

Official title: Open-Label Study of the Safety and Efficacy of SM-020 Gel 1.0% in Subjects With Seborrheic Keratoses and Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers (Basal Cell Carcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma In Situ)

Open-Label study evaluating safety and efficacy of SM-020 Gel 1.0% in subjects with Seborrheic Keratoses and Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers (i.e. Basal Cell Carcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma In Situ). Subjects will be enrolled into 1 of 5 cohorts. Each cohort will enroll approximately 5-10 subjects with at least 1 eligible lesion to be treated. A maximum of 5 lesions may be enrolled per subject. Treatment for all subjects and all lesions will be twice daily for approximately 28 days. Post treatment, residual lesions may be excised per standard of care for histological evaluation. The duration of the study is estimated to be approximately up to 12 weeks from the beginning of the Screening period until the last subject's last visit.

Being tested
SM-020 1% Gel

What participants receive

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of lesions that achieve a 50% reduction in greatest diameter of cohort-assigned TL(s) at week 6 compared to baseline

    Measured: At week 6

  2. Safety and Tolerability will be evaluated through assessment of the severity of the signs and symptoms of Application Site Reactions (ASRs)

    Application Site Reactions will be evaluated based on the severity of the signs and symptoms of pain, burning, stinging, pruritus, erythema, edema, exudation, erosion/ulceration, hyperpigmentation,and hypopigmentation.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 6, and Week 8

  3. Safety and Tolerability as evaluated by review of adverse events

    Grade 1 = Mild asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated Grade 2 = Moderate; minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental ADL Grade 3 = Severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care ADL Grade 4 = Life-threatening consequences: urgent intervention indicated Grade 5 = Death related to AE with Grade 1 being the minimum value and Grade 5 being the maximum value, with a higher value indicating higher severity.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 6, and Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SM-020 1% Gel in people with Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers, run by DermBiont, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 20 inclusion and 29 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Joanna Jay (510-607-8155, joanna.j@dermbiont.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of lesions that achieve a 50% reduction in greatest diameter of cohort-assigned TL(s) at week 6 compared to baseline (time frame: At week 6). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 May 2024.
