COVE-1: A Phase 2, Open-Label Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety and the Optimal Regimen of VP-102, a Proprietary Drug-Device Product Containing Topical Cantharidin (0.7% w/v) Under Occlusion for the Treatment of Common Warts.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Verrucae vulgaris, or common warts, is a common skin condition for which there is no US Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment. Compounded cantharidin has been used to treat warts for years but lacks a controlled formulation, consistent application schedule and methods, and robust safety and efficacy studies. VP-102 is a proprietary drug-device combination product containing a topical formulation of 0.7% (w/v) cantharidin in a single-use delivery device. This objective of the phase 2 study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and optimal regimen of VP-102 in the treatment of common warts.

Methods

In this open-label trial, participants aged ≥ 2 years with one to six common warts were administered VP-102 topically to treatable common warts
