History

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved berdazimer sodium based on evidence from three clinical trials (NI-MC301, NI-MC302, and NI-MC304) of 1,598 participants with molluscum contagiosum. The trials were conducted at 121 sites in the United States. Among the 1,598 enrolled participants, all of them were evaluated for efficacy and 1,596 were evaluated for safety. In all three trials, participants with molluscum contagiosum were randomized to receive berdazimer sodium or vehicle applied to molluscum contagiosum lesions once daily for up to twelve weeks. Efficacy was assessed as the proportion of participants achieving complete clearance at week twelve. Complete clearance was defined as the subject having a total of molluscum contagiosum lesion count of zero at assessment. Trial 1 enrolled 891 participants, trial 2 enrolled 355 participants, and trial 3 enrolled 352 participants. Participants were randomized 1:1 in trial 1, and 2:1 in trials 2 and 3 to receive berdazimer sodium or vehicle applied to molluscum contagiosum lesions once daily for up to twelve weeks.
