Acne Vulgaris, Androgenetic Alopecia
Conditions
Brief summary
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of GT20029 following topical single ascending dose in healthy subjects and multiple ascending dose administration in subjects with androgenetic alopecia(AGA) or acne
Interventions
Stage 1: One single dose Stage 2: One single dose per day (QD) or twice a day (BID) treatment over 14-day period
Stage 1: One single dose Stage 2: One single dose per day (QD) or twice a day (BID) treatment over 14-day period

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Adverse event | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | 8 subjects in a group do not experience any Grade 3 or higher AEs (assessed by NAIDS 2017 v2.1) within 7 days after the last dose, the dose can be escalated to the next. Dose-escalation will be stopped if any of the following occur: * a SAE occurs in one or more active-treated subjects that is considered probably or definitely related to study drug * ≥50% subjects receiving active treatment experience a severe non-serious adverse event that is considered probably or definitely related to study drug * ≥50% subjects receiving active treatment experience, for example, a Grade 2 or higher cardiac or bone marrow adverse event or Grade 3 or higher adverse event for other systems |
| Skin irritation assessments | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | Dose-escalation will be stopped if any of the following occur: • ≥2 subjects receiving active treatment in a group experience one (or more) severe local skin reaction (score = 5, 6 or 7) |
| To characterize the PK Cmax of GT20029 | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | The plasma concentration time data for GT20029 and its metabolite will be analyzed using noncompartmental methods. Actual dosing and sampling times will be used for analyses. The primary PK parameters of interest following dose administration are: Stage 1 and 2: Cmax |
| To characterize the PK Tmax of GT20029 | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | The plasma concentration time data for GT20029 and its metabolite will be analyzed using noncompartmental methods. Actual dosing and sampling times will be used for analyses. The primary PK parameters of interest following dose administration are: Stage 1 and 2: Tmax |
| To characterize the PK t1/2 of GT20029 | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | The plasma concentration time data for GT20029 and its metabolite will be analyzed using noncompartmental methods. Actual dosing and sampling times will be used for analyses. The primary PK parameters of interest following dose administration is Stage 1: t1/2 |
| To characterize the PK AUC of GT20029 | Stage 1 is about 22 days and stage 2 is about 35 days | The plasma concentration time data for GT20029 and its metabolite will be analyzed using noncompartmental methods. Actual dosing and sampling times will be used for analyses. The primary PK parameters of interest following dose administration are: Stage 1 and Stage 2: AUC |
