Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Clinical diagnosis of mild to moderate BP at screening.
  • Treatment naïve or initiation of whole-body high potency topical steroid treatment ≤ 7 days of screening (lesion-only treatment for any amount of time with any topical steroids prior to screening is allowed without restriction).
  • Provide a signed and dated informed consent form in accordance with local regulations and/or IRB/IEC guidelines.

Exclusion

  • Severe BP.
  • Initiation of gliptins and other treatments (e.g., etanercept, sulfasalazine, furosemide, penicillin) that can trigger BP if this treatment was started within 4 weeks prior to screening and is considered possibly related to the onset of BP.
  • Any concomitant medications in the last 3 months prior to screening and assessed by the investigator as possibly related to the development of BP.
  • Planned use of intravenous immunoglobulin or other concomitant treatments for BP (i.e., doxycycline, dapsone) during the study period.
  • Use of systemic immunosuppressants (i.e., mycophenolate, azathioprine, methotrexate) within 4 weeks prior to screening.
  • Treatment with rituximab within 1 year prior to screening.
  • Subjects taking warfarin.
  • Use of systemic steroids (\>10 mg prednisone or equivalent/day) within 14 days of first dose of study agent or known diseases (other than BP) that could require the use of systemic steroids within the study period.
  • Clinically relevant abnormal laboratory value at screening, including hematology, blood chemistry, or urinalysis (laboratory testing may be repeated once during the screening phase).
  • Participation in studies of investigational drugs must have been discontinued within 30 days or 5 half lives of the drug (whichever was longer) prior to screening.
