Topically Applied AMTX-100 CF for Adult Patients With Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis
brief summary
This study determines the Maximum Tolerable Dose (MTD) by maximum BSA percentage treated and evaluates safety and efficacy of 1.1% w/w AMTX-100 CF versus placebo (vehicle). The study has two parts: Phase I (Part 1): Approximately Twenty-five (25) subjects with various treatable Body Surface Area (BSA) involvement of Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis will be enrolled in the study and treated with 1.1% w/w AMTX-100 CF. Phase II (Part 2): Approximately sixty (60) subjects with Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis with various treatable BSA involvement of Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis will be randomized to be treated with 1.1% w/w AMTX-100 CF3 concentration or Vehicle (Placebo) in the study.
detailed description
AMTX-100 CF3 drug product is formulated as a water-based, topical cream incorporating a 28-amino acid synthetic polypeptide (AMTX-100) as the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). AMTX-100 is a chimeric, cell-penetrating, bifunctional nuclear transport modifier (NTM), that is engineered to modulate nuclear transport of transcription factors (NF-κB, NFAT, AP-1, and STAT1) involved in the activation of gene expression of key mediators of inflammation (TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, MCP-1, etc.) and metabolic syndrome (ChREBP and SREBP) by importin α/β complex and importin β, respectively. This further leads to a reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokine/chemokine production and lipid and carbohydrate metabolic products.
AMTX-100 CF3 is intended to improve symptoms associated with mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis in adults. This Phase I/II study aims to determine the Maximum Tolerable Dose (MTD) by maximum BSA percentage treated and to evaluate efficacy of 1.1% w/w AMTX-100 CF3 versus placebo (vehicle).
