New pill aims to let patients step into the sun without pain

NCT ID NCT06144840

Summary

This study is testing whether an investigational drug called MT-7117 can help people with rare light-sensitive skin disorders (EPP or XLP) spend more time in sunlight before feeling painful burning or itching. About 165 participants, aged 12 to 75, will take either the drug or a placebo pill for 16 weeks to see if it delays and reduces these painful reactions. The main goal is to see if the drug improves patients' ability to tolerate sunlight and their overall quality of life.
