Brief Summary:
This is a 16-week, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, controlled study. After assessing eligibility during a screening period of up to 30 days, approximately 320 subjects at least 18 years old who are diagnosed with moderate to severe papulopustular rosacea will be randomized in a 3:3:2 ratio to DFD-29 (40 mg), Doxycycline capsules 40 mg, or Placebo once daily for 16 weeks.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Papulopustular Rosacea Drug: DFD-29 Drug: Doxycycline Drug: Placebo Phase 3

Detailed Description:

This is a 16-week, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, controlled study. After assessing eligibility during a screening period of up to 30 days, approximately 320 subjects at least 18 years old who are diagnosed with moderate to severe papulopustular rosacea will be randomized in a 3:3:2 ratio to DFD-29 (40 mg), Doxycycline capsules 40 mg, or Placebo once daily for 16 weeks.

Subject visits are scheduled at Screening, Baseline (Day 1), and Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16. Clinical assessments of efficacy will be conducted based on Investigator's Global Assessment modified scale without erythema (IGA), Clinician's Erythema Assessment (CEA), and total inflammatory lesion count at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 compared to Baseline.

Laboratory assessments of blood (hematology and biochemistry) and urine (routine tests) will be conducted at Screening and Week 16 (end of study [EOS] or early termination) to assess for any changes in the safety parameters. Other safety assessments include vital signs, physical examination, urine pregnancy tests (for females of childbearing potential), and collection of AE data.

The impact of the treatment on the quality of life (QoL) of the subjects will be assessed using the rosacea-specific tool RosaQoL in addition to the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Treatment Success Compared to Placebo. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Proportion of subjects with IGA (modified scale without erythema) 'treatment success' - Grade 0 or 1 at Week 16 with at least 2 grade reduction from Baseline to Week 16, in the DFD-29 group compared to Placebo.

  2. Total Inflammatory Lesion Count Reduction Compared to Placebo. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Total inflammatory lesion count (sum of papules, pustules, and nodules) reduction from Baseline to Week 16, in the DFD-29 group compared to Placebo.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage Change in Total Inflammatory Lesion Count Compared to Placebo. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Percentage Change in Total inflammatory lesion count (sum of papules, pustules, and nodules) from Baseline to Week 16, in the DFD-29 group compared to Placebo.

  2. IGA Treatment Success Compared to Doxycycline. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Proportion of subjects with IGA treatment success at week 16 in the DFD-29 group compared to Doxycycline capsules 40 mg.

  3. Total Inflammatory Lesion Count Reduction Compared to Doxycycline. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Total inflammatory lesion count reduction from Baseline to week 16 in the DFD-29 group compared to Doxycycline capsules 40 mg.

  4. Clinician's Erythema Assessment (CEA) Compared to Placebo. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Proportion of subjects with at least 2-grade reduction in CEA score from Baseline to Week 16 in the DFD-29 group compared to Placebo.

  5. Change in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score Compared to Placebo. [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16. ]
    Change in DLQI score from Baseline to Week 16 in the DFD-29 group compared to Placebo.
