Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate.

1. Variants of LP deemed by the investigators to be inappropriate for topical
treatment, including but not limited to predominant mucosal (such as oral or

2. Active ongoing inflammatory diseases of the skin other than LP that might
confound the evaluation of LP lesions or compromise participant safety.

3. Any other concomitant skin disorder (eg, generalized erythroderma such as
Netherton's syndrome), pigmentation, or extensive scarring that in the opinion of
the investigator may interfere with the evaluation of LP lesions or compromise
participant safety.

4. Immunocompromised (eg, lymphoma, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome).

5. Chronic or acute infection requiring treatment with systemic antibiotics,
antivirals, antiparasitics, antiprotozoals, or antifungals within 2 weeks before
