Proof of Concept Study to Access Superficial Basal Cell Carcinoma in Adults

Eligible subject should have one naïve superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC) that will be included in the study. sBCC lesion included in the study will initially be confirmed by biopsy (either shave or punch), such that the amount of lesion remaining is at least 25% of the initial lesion surface area, and the initial lesion is at least 6mm in diameter and no more than 20mm in diameter. The total surface area of all treatment area must be \<25cm squared. To minimize the burden of the subject, biopsies (either shave or punch) taken within 6 months prior to screening can be considered. The treatment area (visible sBCC with 5mm margin of normal skin) will be marked with indelible marker (e.g., surgical marker) at Screening/Baseline (Day 1 pre-dose) at the investigational site. Lesion marking should be applied about 3\~4mm from the sBCC. This will be transferred to an acetate sheet with 3 anatomical landmarks marked, Subject number, and location as well. Approximately 10 subjects who meet the study criteria will be enrolled. The study consists of Screening, Treatment, LSR and Response Assessment and Excision Period, Suture Removal, and Follow Up. After a Screening Period of up to 29 days, subjects will return to the site for confirmation of eligibility. Eligible subjects will be randomized on Day 1 to treatment course 1 for a 5 consecutive day treatment course. Subjects will return to the clinical site for LSR assessment, Visit 3, on day 8 and at the Response Assessment or Possible Excision, Visit 4, on day 26. If lesion is assessed as resolved, excision will be performed, Suture Removal, Visit 5, at day 36, and Follow Up, visit 6, on day 54. If lesion is assessed as not resolved at Visit 4, subjects will then proceed to Treatment Course 2 for another 5 consecutive days. For subjects who completed Treatment Course 2, subjects will return to the clinical site for LSR assessment, Visit 4a, on day 33, Response Assessment and Excision, Visit 4b, on day 51, Suture Removal, Visit 5, on day 61, and Follow Up, Visit 6, on day 79 . The duration of the entire study from first subject, first visit to last subject, last visit is anticipated to be approximately 9 months. For the Screening, Treatment, LSR and Response Assessment and Excision Periods, Suture Removal, and Follow Up Period each subject will participate for up to 80 days: Screen up to 29 days prior to Day 1, treatment course for 5 consecutive days with a possibility of receiving a second treatment course, LSR Assessments for 3 days, Response Assessment for 26 days, Excision, with Suture Removal 10 days from the excision, and Follow Up 28 days after excision. Subjects will be given verbal and written instructions on self-administration and receive study drug for Treatment Course 1 including 1 study kit containing 5 daily single-dose packets, 1 for each day of treatment. The first dose will be applied by the subject under the supervision of study site personnel. Subjects will then take home the study kit containing the remaining single-dose packets of study drug for daily self-administration on the next 4 consecutive days. The written instructions will include a dosing log where the subjects will record the date and time of study drug self-administration. For subjects completing Treatment Course 2, the same instructions and dosing apply. The Investigator may withdraw a subject from study treatment or withdraw the subject from the study at any time for safety or administrative reasons. The subject may decide to discontinue study treatment or withdraw from the study at any time for any reason. The Investigator must document the reason for discontinuing a subject from treatment or from the study if known, or why the subject withdrew consent, if applicable. Subject disposition information will be collected on the electronic case report form (eCRF). Subjects who do not complete treatment for course 1 or 2 and withdraw from study treatment (for reasons other than death or withdrawal of consent) will be encouraged to continue the post-treatment visits. At the time of withdrawal from the study, the subject should complete the early termination assessments (Day 26 assessments). Subjects will be instructed to contact the site to report severe or intolerable Local Skin Reactions during the treatment course(s) to schedule an Unscheduled visit for Investigator assessment of Local Skin Reactions and treatment, per Investigator judgement. In females of childbearing potential, a urine pregnancy test will be performed at the site at the screening and baseline visit. Test results must be reviewed before randomization. The Investigator or a qualified staff member must obtain standardized photography of the subject's treatment area at the Baseline visit, LSR and Response Assessment Periods, Excision visit, and Suture Removal visit. Additionally, photos may be captured at the Follow Up visit if the the subject has any unresolved Local Skin Reactions (LSR), and/or pigmentation and scarring in the treatment area. The photographs are to document the appearance of the subjects' treatment area and to assist with the identification and confirmation of the location of the treatment area throughout the study. Site will supply their own camera equipment for the study and photos will be uploaded to the eCRF. Two views will be taken for each standardized photography assessment: 1. The treatment area with sBCC lesion marked with the surgical marker. 2. Close-Up of Treatment Area including a ruler with millimeter markings in the frame of the picture (not covering the lesion marked). On the day of excision, the investigator will perform all safety and Local Skin Reaction assessments, as well as an assessment of whether the sBCC is clinically present. If the lesion is no longer clinically present, it will be assessed as a clinically complete response. After all assessments are performed, an elliptical excision will be performed per usual clinical practice on day 26 or 51 using the acetate sheet/transparency marked at screening and baseline with both the lesion margin and treatment margins (5mm beyond the lesion margin), using the 3 anatomical landmarks on the acetate/transparency to identify the lesion location. An ellipse will incorporate both the lesion and treatment margins (i.e., at least 5mm beyond the lesion margin). This specimen will be sent for pathologic review. If the pathology report fails to reveal sBCC in the excision specimen, this will be considered a pathology complete response. If the lesion achieves both clinical and pathology complete response, then it will be deemed to have achieved complete response. All Adverse Events (AEs), regardless of relationship to study drug or procedure, should be collected beginning from the time the subject signs the study Informed Consent Form (ICF) through the final subject contact in the study. Subjects who fail screening primarily due to AE(s) must have the AE(s) recorded in the AE eCRF and screen failure reported on the eCRF. All Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) must be followed to resolution or, if resolution is unlikely, to stabilization.
