Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of DPCP Ointment (Samcyprone™) on the Clearance of Verruca Vulgaris (Common Warts)

A Prospective, Phase 2a Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of DPCP Ointment (Samcyprone™) on the Clearance of Verruca Vulgaris (Common Warts) in Subjects Ages 18 - 65 Years

Warts are benign epidermal tumors caused by human papillomaviruses (HPVs). The active pharmaceutical ingredient DPCP has been used for many years as a compounded formulation in acetone for the treatment of warts, alopecia areata and more recently, cutaneous metastatic melanoma lesions. An improved topical ointment formulation of DPCP called Samcyprone™ will be evaluated for the treatment of common warts.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Male and female subjects between the ages of 18 and 65 years of age, inclusive
• Subjects presenting with at least one verruca vulgaris (common cutaneous, plantar, and periungual) warts for at least 4 weeks, but no more than 3 years
• Subject's common warts for treatment must measure between 3 and 20 mm and be located on hands, feet, limbs and/or trunk. A maximum of four (4) cutaneous single warts or one (1) area of clustered or adjacent warts up to 80 mm will be treated

Exclusion Criteria:

• Genital warts may not be selected as target warts
• Subjects that are immuno-compromised
• Presence of systemic or localized diseases, conditions, or medications that could interfere with assessment of safety and efficacy or that compromise immune function
