Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of a gel called PTX022 (sirolimus) in treating skin conditions called cutaneous venous malformations.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with visible varicose veins, specifically cutaneous venous malformations (cVM), which may include a small part (<30%) of lymphatic malformation. It's not suitable for those who don't meet the specific criteria of having cVM.
What is being tested?
The study tests PTX-022 (Sirolimus) Topical Gel at 3.9% concentration to see if it's safe and effective in treating skin-visible varicose veins. This Phase 2 trial compares patients' conditions before and after treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects are not explicitly listed here, topical Sirolimus can typically cause site reactions like redness, itching or irritation; systemic side effects are less common but could include issues like mouth sores or increased cholesterol.
