ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a new medication called TVB-3567 to see how safe it is and how it works in healthy adults, both with and without acne. The study is divided into four parts. The first part will give participants different doses of the medication, some of which will be a placebo (a pill with no active drug), to see how well the body tolerates it. The second part will test how eating food affects the medication’s effectiveness. The last two parts will give multiple doses of the medication to both healthy participants and those diagnosed with moderate to severe acne to further check safety and how the body responds.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be healthy adults aged 18 to 55 with a specific body mass index (BMI). Those with acne need to have moderate to severe acne but still meet the health criteria. Participants can expect to be monitored closely during the study, including evaluations of their health and responses to the medication. It's important to note that certain medical conditions and previous treatments may exclude someone from participating, so potential volunteers should carefully review the eligibility criteria. Overall, this trial is a crucial step in understanding how TVB-3567 could help manage acne.
