Intervention model description

The study will be conducted in 2 Phases: Part A, up to 5 cohorts of 3 subjects each will receive a single dose of ABI-1968 Topical Cream. In Part B, three cohorts (3 subjects per cohort) will receive multiple doses in 3 ascending dose strengths of ABI-1968 Topical Cream. After completing the ascending dose multiple-dosing cohorts, a multiple-dosing Cohort Expansion group of 30 subjects will be initiated.

Inclusion criteria

1. Female or male subjects, at least 27 years old. 2. Confirmed diagnosis of intra-anal HSIL at least 3 months prior to screening and confirmed by histopathology (with p16 positive staining) 3. Intra-anal HSIL are visible and evaluable by HRA at the time of screening, and no lesion(s) is suspicious for invasive cancer. 4. For HIV-positive subjects, CD4 count must be at least 200/mm3 with undetectable (\<50 copies/mL) viral load within the 3 months prior to enrollment. Subjects must be on a stable regimen of antiretroviral drugs for the 3 months prior to enrollment.

Exclusion criteria

1. Women who are pregnant, plan to become pregnant in the next 3 months, or lactating females. 2. Received topical treatment or ablative procedures for aHSIL in the 6 months prior to enrolment. 3.
