Study Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, parallel group dose response study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of 2 concentrations of NFX-179 gel in participants with cNF. At Visit 1 (Screening visit), the investigator will identify 10 Target cNFs that fulfil the enrollment criteria. The Target cNFs must be located on the participant's face, anterior trunk, or upper extremities. Two Target cNFs must be on the face and 8 must be on the anterior trunk or upper extremities. The study medication will be applied topically once daily to the Target cNFs for 182 days (26 weeks). During the duration of the study participants will be evaluated for safety and efficacy.
