SkinJect Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Medicus, is a development-stage, life science company focused on commercializing novel, non-invasive treatment for basal cell skin cancer using a patented dissolvable microneedle patch to deliver chemotherapeutic agent to eradicate tumour cells. The company completed a phase 1 safety and tolerability study (SKNJCT-001) in March of 2021, which met its primary objective of safety and tolerability. The study also describes the efficacy of the investigational product D-MNA, with six participants experiencing complete response on histological examination of the resected lesion. The company submitted a phase 2 investigational new drug clinical protocol to the Food and Drug Administration in January, 2024, for a randomized, controlled, double-blind, multicentre clinical study (SKNJCT-003) that is expected to randomize up to 60 patients. The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of two doses of two-dose levels (100 and 200 micrograms) of D-MNA compared with placebo (P-MNA) in subjects with nodular BCC. Patient recruitment is currently under way in nine sites across the United States.
