New drug aims to let Sun-Sensitive patients enjoy daylight

NCT ID NCT04402489

Summary

This study tested whether an investigational drug called MT-7117 could help people with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) or X-linked protoporphyria (XLP). These conditions cause severe burning, tingling, or stinging pain soon after sunlight exposure. The trial involved 184 participants aged 12-75 and measured if the drug could safely increase the time they could spend in the sun before symptoms began.
