12-week Study of NFX-179 Gel in Subjects With Epidermal Nevi

"Stanford University (Stanford) is studying a selective mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor (NFX-179) that has been chemically engineered for topical application to treat epidermal nevus syndromes (ENS).~Preclinical studies evaluating topical application of NFX-179 to human nevus sebaceous explants demonstrated that NFX-179 can penetrate the tissue and suppress the p-ERK biomarker.~It was also determined that NFX-179, when incubated with the tissues in medium, also suppressed ERK phosphorylation in human keratinocytic epidermal nevi. This clinical study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical effect of NFX-179 Gel in Subjects with Epidermal Nevi."
