Efficacy and Safety Study of Moxidectin in Adults With Scabies

Exclusion Criteria

• •2. History of chronic or recurrent dermatologic disease or skin conditions other than scabies that could interfere with the diagnosis of scabies and evaluation of cure.
• •3. Received any treatment with one or more scabicides within the 28 days prior to Screening, or between Screening and Baseline, including but not limited to permethrin, ivermectin, benzyl benzoate, sulfur, lindane, crotamiton, malathion, tea tree oil or spinosad.
• •4. Body mass index \> 35 kg/m2.
• •5. Creatinine clearance \< 30 mL/min (using Cockcroft-Gault equation).
• •6. Both total bilirubin \>1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and AST \> ULN.
• •7. Abnormal and clinically relevant findings in hematology or biochemistry assessments at Screening, or in vital signs, 12-lead ECG, or physical examination at Screening and/or Baseline, that in the opinion of the Investigator would put the subjects at increased risk from participating in the study, confound study evaluations, or may interfere with study conduct.
• •8. Presence of any other clinically relevant condition, including infection, immunological disorder, malignant disease, and/or other underlying condition or circumstance at Screening or Baseline that in the opinion of the Investigator would put the subjects at increased risk from participating in the study, confound study evaluations, or interfere with the study conduct.
• •9. Use of topical steroids, systemic or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (\>500 µg per day of fluticasone propionate or equivalent for adults), or other immunomodulators within 14 days of Baseline.
• •10. Requiring ongoing treatment with, or received within 5 half-lives before Screening, any of the following medications that are clinical BCRP inhibitors: curcurmin (turmeric) supplements, cyclosporine A, darolutamide, eltrombopag, febuxostat, fostamatinib, rolapitant and teriflunomide.
• •11. Received an investigational agent within 28 days of Screening (or 5 half-lives of the investigational agent, whichever is longer).
• •12. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to macrocyclic lactones or excipients used in the formulation of moxidectin or ivermectin.
• •13. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the components in permethrin 5% cream, to any synthetic pyrethroid or pyrethrin, or to the components of spinosad 0.9% topical suspension.
• •14. Known, suspected or at risk of Loa loa coinfection.
• •15. Difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules.
• •16. Pregnant or breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant from Screening until 16 weeks after treatment with IP.
• •17. Known or suspected alcohol or illicit substance abuse.
• •18. Unwilling, unlikely or unable to comply with all protocol specified assessments.
• •19. Previous enrolment in this study.
• •20. Previous moxidectin exposure within 6 months (5 half-lives) from Baseline.
• •21. Has household members who refuse or are unable to receive permethrin 5% cream treatment for scabies.
