Phase I Study of Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Topical Solution in Subjects With Androgenetic Alopecia

Phase I Study of Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Once-Daily Topical Solution in Male Subjects With Androgenetic Alopecia

This study will be a single center, open-label study of a single concentration of ANR- 001.1. The solution will be applied to the scalp of 14 male subjects by study staff once daily for 7 days.

At screening, subjects will sign informed consent and inclusion and exclusion will be reviewed for each subject. Screening data will include demographics, medical history, concomitant medications, physical examination, weight, O2 sat, vital signs laboratory evaluation (CMP, CBC, UA), and ECG.

At Day 1, a physical exam, weight, O2 sat, vital signs (including BP, pulse, respiratory rate and temperature) and review of concomitant medications will be performed, and admission criteria reviewed.

If criteria are met, the study staff will administer the first dose of study medication to the area of hair loss on the scalp (8 cm x 6 cm). If there is no hair loss the dose will be administered to the crown of the head (8 cm x 6 cm). The study staff will continue to administer the study medication to the same area of the scalp of the subject, once daily for Study Days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. Daily subject visits will include vital signs, review of adverse events and concomitant medications. PK draws and ECGs will take place at Study Days 1, 2, 7 and 8, following the first dose and the last doses, respectively.

• Subjects whose vital signs, ECG, safety labs or physical exam results are clinically significant in the opinion of the investigator.
• Subjects have a skin condition that, in the Investigators opinion, could interfere with study assessment or put the subject at undue risk by study participation.
• Subjects with an active or recent (within 30 days before Day 1) disease or infection, or chronic dermatological condition (eczema, psoriasis, infection, etc.).
• Subjects with known or suspected hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to any of the active or inactive components of the test treatment.
