A Phase 2a, Open-Label, Multicenter, Activity and Safety Study of KX2-391 Ointment 1% in Subjects With Actinic Keratosis on the Face or Scalp

In this study, the activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of KX2-391 Ointment was evaluated in adult participants with a clinical diagnosis of stable, clinically typical actinic keratosis (AK) on the face or scalp.

This study was an open-label, multicenter, activity, safety, tolerability, and PK study of KX2-391 Ointment administered topically to the face or scalp of participants with AK.

The study consists of Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up Periods. Eligible participants were received 3 or 5 consecutive days of topical treatment, applied at the study site. Blood samples for PK analysis were collected. Activity (lesion counts) and safety evaluations were performed.
