Summary

This early-stage study tested a new drug called SFG-02 given through a skin patch in 32 healthy adults of Japanese and White backgrounds. The main goals were to check if the patch is safe and how the drug moves through the body. Since this was a Phase 1 trial in healthy people, it does not test whether the drug treats any disease.
