This is a Phase I study in participants with superficial or nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma
(BCC), designed to assess dose limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose, efficacy,
safety, and tolerability of dissolvable, tip-loaded, microneedle arrays containing
doxorubicin (D-MNA).

This is a Phase I study in participants with superficial or nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma
(BCC), designed to assess dose limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose, efficacy,
safety, and tolerability of dissolvable, tip-loaded, microneedle arrays containing
doxorubicin (D-MNA). Doxorubicin is a cytotoxic anthracycline antibiotic and is currently
approved for the treatment of a broad range of cancers, including but not limited to:
breast, bladder, gastric, and ovarian cancers; small cell lung cancer; acute
lymphoblastic leukemia; and acute myelo blastic leukemia. SkinJect, Inc. has developed a
novel delivery system in the form of a tip-loaded dissolvable microneedle array (MNA)
which will allow for topical delivery of doxorubicin directly to the lesion at
concentrations that are far below standard systemic dosing, thereby reducing the adverse
events associated with systemic delivery. The primary objective of this investigation is
to establish the highest safe and tolerable dose of single applications of D-MNA, one
application per week for three weeks in placebo, 25 µg, 50 µg, 100 µg, and 200 µg dose
groups in participants with BCC.
