Official Title

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel-Arm Pilot Evaluation - to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of SC0032, a Magnesium Salt Oral Spray, in Adults With Refractory or Unexplained Chronic Cough

Brief Summary

This is a randomized placebo-controlled, parallel-arm study to determine the safety and efficacy of SC0032 in participants with RCC

Detailed Description

There are three parts to this study and an optional fourth part:

1. an optional Usability Sub-Study,
2. Part 1: Two Week Treatment (Run-In) Period,
3. Part 2:Three Week Treatment (Parallel Arm) Period and
4. Part 3: Four Week No Treatment (Follow-Up) Period, Participants completing the three primary parts of the study will attend four study visits. Participation in the optional Usability sub-study does not require any additional visits, see Figure 1. Trial Schema. Participants who do not meet criteria for Part 2, the Parallel Arm Period, at the end of Part 1, the Run-In period, will only be required to attend two study visits and will not receive an active treatment. Participants who discontinue the study prior to completion will be asked to complete an Early Termination Visit.
