Study Endpoints 
The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of index subjects who are lice free 
(defined as no live lice, adults or nymphs) 14 days (Day 15) after treatment.   
The secondary efficacy endpoint is the number and percentage of all index subjects 
who are lice-free at Day 2. 
Number of Subjects 
and Sites 
The planned overall sample size for this clinical trial is approximately 280 index 
subjects, who will be randomized at approximately 6 geographically diverse clinical 
research centers in the United States 
Eligibility Criteria 
Subjects who satisfy ALL the following inclusion and have NONE of the following 
exclusion criteria may be enrolled in the study: 
INCLUSION CRITERIA: 
1. Subjects must have an active head lice infestation defined as: At least 3 
live lice (adults and/or nymphs) present on the scalp and/or hair, as 
determined by a trained evaluator. The index subject must be the 
youngest family member, through the age of 18, presenting with an active 
head lice infestation.  
2. Household members that have an active head lice infestation defined as: 
At least 1 live louse (adult and/or nymph) present on the scalp and/or hair, 
as determined by a trained evaluator (with the exception of the male head 
of household who may self-assess as being lice free) will receive the 
Standard of Care with an over-the-counter head lice treatment product. 
Up to 3 infested household members may receive treatment, if more than 
3 household members are infested, the entire household will be excluded 
from the study. 
3. Subject is male or female. 
4. Index subject is at least 6 months through 18 years of age at time of 
enrollment. 
5. Subject is in good general health based on medical history. 
6. Each subject must have an appropriately signed Informed Consent 
agreement. A caregiver must sign an Informed Consent agreement for 
children not old enough to do so. Children ages 6-17 years of age will be 
administered a child's Assent Form. 
7. The caregiver of a subject must be willing to allow all household members 
to be screened for head lice. If other household members are found to 
have an active head lice infestation, they must be willing and able to

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
participate in receiving the Standard of Care. No more than one working 
male per household may be excluded from evaluation if he is assessed as 
being lice free by himself or the caregiver and cannot come in due to his 
work schedule. If this individual may have lice, he must come to the test 
facility; otherwise the entire household will be excluded from study 
participation. 
8. Subject and/or their caregiver must be physically able and willing to apply 
the test product according to established treatment methods. 
9. Subject agrees not to use any other form of lice treatments (commercial, 
community-anecdotal, or mechanical/manual) while participating in the 
study. 
10. Following application and rinsing of the test product, subject agrees not to 
shampoo, wash, or rinse their hair or scalp until the 24-hour post-
treatment evaluation has been completed. 
11. Subject agrees to not cut or chemically treat their hair while participating 
in the study. 
12. Subject agrees to follow all study instructions, including attending all 
follow-up appointments. 
13. Female index subjects of childbearing potential must be willing to have a 
urine pregnancy test prior to inclusion in this study. 
14. In the event of a subject judged to be incapable of self-treating, the 
household must have a caregiver willing to apply the treatment at home. 
 
EXCLUSION CRITERIA: 
1. Index subjects with greater than 3 household members with at least 1 live 
louse (adult and/or nymph) present on the scalp and/or hair, as 
determined by a trained evaluator will be automatically excluded from the 
trial. 
2. Youngest household member is over 18 years of age. 
3. History of irritation or sensitivity to ivermectin or the lotion components, 
pediculicides or hair care products. 
4. Presentation at the treatment site with visible skin/scalp condition(s) that 
are not attributable to head lice infestation, such as an erythema score 
that is >2, blisters, vesicles which, in the opinion of the investigative

or medical monitor, may interfere with the study results. 
9. Females (including caregivers who come in contact with the investigational 
product) who are pregnant, nursing or planning a pregnancy which could 
include index subjects. If a household has a pregnant female who has an 
active case of lice, the entire household is excluded from participation. If 
this pregnant household member does not have an active infestation, this 
individual must NOT be the caregiver (one who provides treatment to 
other household members). 
10. Index subject of child-bearing potential, and unwilling to use an adequate 
method of contraception for the duration of the study. Adequate methods 
of contraception include: abstinence, vasectomized partner, oral birth 
control pills, birth control injections or patches, Intra uterine devices, 
condoms with a spermicidal jelly or a diaphragm with spermicidal jelly, 
surgical sterilization. Index subjects and/or their caregivers will be 
considered non-child-bearing if the following has occurred: full 
hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy is considered surgically sterile. 
Tubal ligation is not considered equivalent to female sterilization. 
11. Participation in a previous investigational drug study within the past 30 
days. 
12. Does not understand the requirements for study participation and/or may 
likely exhibit poor compliance, in the opinion of the investigator. 
13. Does not have a known household affiliation with their household 
members (i.e., do not stay in one household consistently, sleeping at one 
place several nights and then at another place or location). Household is 
defined as living in a shared area or space (for example the same house or 
apartment unit).

Statistical Analysis 
ANALYSIS POPULATIONS 
Safety Population includes all subjects who were randomized and dispensed 
treatment.  This is the population that will be used for the safety assessments. 
Modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) population includes all Index subjects who met all 
inclusion/exclusion criteria, were randomized, dispensed treatment, and had at least 
14 
 

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
one post-treatment efficacy evaluation.  This is the primary population for 
determination of the superiority of the active treatments over placebo. 
Per-Protocol (PP) population includes all mITT subjects who applied their dispensed 
treatment, had no protocol deviations which could have interfered with the accurate 
assessment of treatment efficacy, and returned for the Day 15 visit within the allowed 
window. This is the primary population for the efficacy comparisons between the two 
active treatment groups.  
EFFICACY ANALYSIS 
Primary Efficacy Endpoint 
The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of index subjects who are lice free 
(defined as no live lice, adults or nymphs) 14 days (Day 15) after treatment.  The 
superiority of Test and Reference treatment’s cure proportions over that of the 
placebo will be evaluated using continuity-corrected Z-tests (α = 0.05, 2-sided). The 
comparability of the Test and Reference treatments will be evaluated using a 90% 
continuity-corrected confidence interval on the difference between their cure 
proportions and a bioequivalence margin = 0.20 (20%).  
Secondary Efficacy Endpoint  
The secondary efficacy endpoint is the number and percentage of all index subjects 
who are lice free at Day 2.  
SAFETY ANALYSIS 
Descriptive statistics on the severity and duration of adverse events (AEs) from all 
subjects will be determined for each treatment group for any AE that occurs in at least 
5% of the subjects. 
Analysis of tolerability will be based on scores of Stinging/Burning and Itching 
sensations collected during Subject Self-Assessment and Site Assessment at all follow-
up visits between the test and reference treatment groups.

2 Study Introduction 
2.1 Background Information 
 
The head louse, or Pediculus humanus capitis, is a wingless, parasitic insect that can be found on the head, eyebrows, and 
eyelashes of people. Head lice feed on human blood several times a day and live close to the human scalp.  
Head lice are found worldwide. In the United States, infestation with head lice is most common among pre-school children 
attending child care, elementary schoolchildren, and the household members of infested children. Although reliable data 
on how many people in the United States get head lice each year are not available, an estimated 6 million to 12 million 
infestations occur each year in the United States among children 3 to 11 years of age.  [1] 
Ivermectin is a member of the avermectin class of broad-spectrum antiparasitic agents which have a unique mode of 
action. Compounds of the class cause death primarily through binding selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated 
chloride channels, which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. This leads to an increase in the permeability of the 
cell membrane to chloride ions with hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell, resulting in paralysis and death of the 
parasite. Compounds of this class may also interact with other ligand-gated chloride channels, such as those gated by the 
neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The selective activity of compounds of this class is attributable to the 
fact that some mammals do not have glutamate-gated chloride channels and that the avermectins have a low affinity for 
mammalian ligand-gated chloride channels. In addition, ivermectin does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier in 
humans. [2] 
 
Safety of Ivermectin was evaluated in two pivotal trials. Supportive safety data is also available from five other sponsor-
conducted Phase 1 and 2 trials.  Adverse events which occurred in less than 1% of subjects included conjunctivitis, ocular 
hyperemia, eye irritation, dandruff, dry skin, and skin burning sensation. Evaluation of cutaneous safety, scalp irritation 
(Phases 1, 2, 3) and ocular irritation (Phase 3), did not reveal clinically notable signals. [3] 
Long-term studies in animals have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of Ivermectin, yet it was 
found not to be genotoxic in vitro in the Ames test, the mouse lymphoma assay, or the unscheduled DNA synthesis assay 
in human fibroblasts. [4]  
2.2 Rationale 
 
There are many FDA-approved drugs (including prescription and nonprescription drugs) for the treatment of head lice 
infestation, but genetic resistance of lice to lindane and to the most commonly used treatments, pyrethroids, is not 
uncommon in the United States, thus development of additional drugs for this indication is encouraged.  [5] 
Because the infestation is communicable, children diagnosed with head lice infestation may be precluded from attending 
school until they have received effective treatment, indicating the need for a safe and bioequivalent alternative. [7] There 
is a public health need for products for the treatment of head lice with a favorable side effect profile and approval for use 
in children less than 4 years of age. [3] 
The proposed study is aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin 0.5% lotion.  A randomized, multi-center, 
double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group trial has been selected in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 
Mayne Pharma’s Ivermectin 0.5% lotion compared to Sklice® 0.5% lotion in the treatment of head lice. [3]  
The index subjects will be selected according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria.  The study treatment duration 
of 15 days is expected to be sufficient to show a treatment effect.

2.3 Potential Risks and Benefits 
2.3.1 Known Potential Risks               
 
Safety and efficacy has been established for pediatric patients 6 months of age or older. Ivermectin 0.5% lotion is not 
recommended for patients under 6 months of age due to the increased risk of systemic absorption, given a high ratio of 
skin surface area to body mass.   
 
The following reactions, reported in less than 1% of subjects treated with Ivermectin 0.5% lotion include:  
 
• 
Conjunctivitis 
• 
Ocular hyperemia 
• 
Eye irritation 
• 
Dandruff 
• 
Dry skin 
• 
Skin burning sensation 
In the case of accidental or significant exposure, the following adverse effects have been reported most frequently:  
• 
Rash 
• 
Edema 
• 
Headache 
• 
Dizziness 
• 
Asthenia 
• 
Nausea 
• 
Vomiting 
• 
Diarrhea 
Other adverse effects that have been reported include: 
• 
Seizure  
• 
Ataxia 
• 
Dyspnea  
• 
Abdominal pain 
• 
Paresthesia 
• 
Urticaria  
• 
Contact dermatitis  
A theoretical concern exists about medication errors that might result in the ingestion of the ivermectin product 
(particularly in young children), therefore it should only be administered under the direct supervision of an adult.     
 
2.3.2 Known Potential Benefits 
 
The adverse event profile observed reveals a product safe for use in children as young as 6 months. The demonstration of 
efficacy with a single 10-minute treatment is unique amongst anti-lice products and will likely improve compliance.  
Ivermectin 0.5% lotion represents a significant addition to the current armamentarium for the treatment of head lice. 
This medication is widely used and prescribed because the benefits associated with the use of it is greater than the risk of 
the side effects.  Ivermectin 0.5% lotion has demonstrated robust efficacy in comparison to placebo with a single 10-
minute treatment for head lice in subjects 6 months of age and older.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
3 Objectives and Purpose 
 
The primary objective of the study is to establish the efficacy of a single application of Ivermectin 0.5% lotion in the 
treatment of head lice under at-home use conditions compared with Sklice® 0.5% lotion, and to demonstrate that both 
active lotions have superior efficacy compared to Placebo. 
The secondary objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and local tolerability of Ivermectin 0.5% lotion compared 
with Sklice® 0.5% lotion. 
4 Study Design and Endpoints 
4.1 Description of the Study Design 
 
This is a Phase 3 Randomized, Multi-Center, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and 
Safety of Mayne Pharma’s Ivermectin 0.5% Lotion Compared to Sklice® 0.5% Lotion in the Treatment of Head Lice.  The 
subject population includes healthy male and female subjects aged 6 months through 18 years who are infested with 
Pediculus humanus capitis. The youngest infested household member will be considered the index subject.  Household 
members, up to a maximum of 3 members, infested with an active head lice infestation defined as at least 1 live louse 
(adult and/or nymph) present on the scalp and/or hair, as determined by a trained evaluator will receive treatment with 
an over-the-counter head lice treatment product at baseline. 
The planned overall sample size for this clinical trial is approximately 280 index subjects, who will be randomized at 
different geographical clinical research centers in the United States. 
Potential subjects will be screened and the index subject will be eligible for enrollment into the study. During the baseline 
visit (Day 1), which can occur on the same day as screening (Day 0), the Investigator will record subject’s demographics, 
medical history, review concomitant medication, identifying any prohibited therapies the subject may receive, perform 
physical examination, collect vital signs and perform urine pregnancy test.  Eligible subjects will be randomized in a ratio 
of 3:3:1 to receive either the Mayne Pharma’s Ivermectin 0.5% lotion, Sklice® 0.5% lotion, or placebo lotion treatment and 
will be trained on the application of the study drug and subject’s diary completion. Infested household members, up to 3 
members per household, will be treated with an over-the-counter head lice treatment product on-site. 
The study drug will be applied as a single, at-home dose.  Subjects will be instructed to apply a full tube amount (4 oz.) of 
Ivermectin 0.5% lotion to fully coat dry hair and scalp, avoiding the eyes and mucus membranes. The lotion will be left on 
the hair and scalp for 10 minutes, then rinsed off with warm water.  The tube is intended for a single use; all used tubes 
should be returned at the second visit (first follow-up visit) to the clinical site for product accountability.  In addition to 
receiving the study drug, the index subjects and household members will be instructed on an overall lice management 
program, which includes: 
• 
Wash (in hot water) or dry-clean all recently worn clothing, hats, used bedding and towels.  
• 
Wash (in hot water) personal care items such as combs, brushes and hair clips. 
• 
A fine-tooth comb or special nit comb may be used to remove dead lice and nits after treatment. 
Index subjects will return for post-baseline visits assessments at Days 2, 8, and 15, returning used tubes of the study drug 
at Day 2, which will be accounted for along with diary cards, which will be reviewed by the site personnel for completeness. 
The Investigator will perform a visual assessment for the presence or absence of head lice, record local application site 
reactions, and perform an ocular irritation assessment. The site will provide a Subject Self-Assessment worksheet to record 
tolerability of treatment. Urine pregnancy testing will be performed at the Screening Visit and the Final Study Visit, with 
interim visits confirming pregnancy has not occurred through questioning of the index subject.

present on the scalp and/or hair, as determined by a trained evaluator. The index subject must be the 
youngest family member, through the age of 18, presenting with an active head lice infestation.  
2. Household members that have an active head lice infestation defined as: At least 1 live louse (adult and/or 
nymph) present on the scalp and/or hair, as determined by a trained evaluator (with the exception of the 
male head of household who may self-assess as being lice free) will receive the Standard of Care with an over-
the-counter head lice treatment product. Up to 3 infested household members may receive treatment, if 
more than 3 household members are infested, the entire household will be excluded from the study.

to apply the treatment at home. 
 
5.2 Exclusion Criteria 
 
An individual who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: 
1. Index subjects with greater than 3 household members with at least 1 live louse (adult and/or nymph) present 
on the scalp and/or hair, as determined by a trained evaluator will be automatically excluded from the trial. 
2. Youngest household member is over 18 years of age. 
3. History of irritation or sensitivity to ivermectin or the lotion components, pediculicides or hair care products. 
4. Presentation at the treatment site with visible skin/scalp condition(s) that are not attributable to head lice 
infestation, such as an erythema score that is >2, blisters, vesicles which, in the opinion of the investigative 
personnel or medical monitor, will interfere with safety and/or efficacy evaluations. 
5. Presentation at the treatment site with eczema or atopic dermatitis. 
6. Treatment for head lice (Over the counter [OTC], home remedy and/or Prescription) in the last 15 days. 
7. Any condition or illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, may compromise the objective of the protocol.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
bilateral oophorectomy is considered surgically sterile. Tubal ligation is not considered equivalent to female 
sterilization. 
11. Participation in a previous investigational drug study within the past 30 days. 
12. Does not understand the requirements for study participation and/or may likely exhibit poor compliance, in 
the opinion of the investigator. 
13. Does not have a known household affiliation with their household members (i.e., do not stay in one household 
consistently, sleeping at one place several nights and then at another place or location). Household is defined 
as living in a shared area or space (for example the same house or apartment unit). [6] 
 
5.3 Criteria for Inclusion of Minor Subjects 
 
Subjects aged 6 years through 17 years of age must sign the Assent Form that will be written in such a way as to be 
understandable to a child and to obtain parental or legal guardian consent prior to enrollment in this study.  
 
5.4 Strategies for Recruitment and Retention 
 
• 
Expected total number of screened subjects will be 311. 
• 
Given a 10% screen failure rate, an anticipated number of enrolled subjects will be 280. 
• 
Assumed dropout rate is 10%, therefore an expected number of 252 subjects will complete the study. 
• 
Source of subjects will be primarily from area schools, along with referrals by local pediatricians to these 
participating, dedicated clinical lice centers. 
• 
Retention of subjects will be supported by thorough visit reminders and proper education on the study 
itself, including study duration, activities and responsibilities. 
• 
Approximately 6 geographically diverse clinical research centers in the US will be participating. 
 
5.5 Subject Withdrawal and Termination 
5.5.1 Potential Reasons for Withdrawal 
 
In accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and other applicable regulations, a subject has the right to withdraw from 
the study at any time and for any reason without prejudice to his or her future medical care. The Investigator or Medical 
Monitor may also withdraw the subject at any time if it is medically necessary or in the interest of subject safety. 
A subject will be discontinued from this study if any of the following criteria are met: 
• 
Withdrawal of consent by the subject is received. 
• 
In the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor it is not in the subject’s best interests to continue in the 
study. 
• 
Occurrence of an Adverse Event (AE) or Serious Adverse Event (SAE), which, in the opinion of the Investigator, 
warrants discontinuation of the subject from the study. 
• 
Pregnancy as informed by the subject or as determined by a positive urine pregnancy test.

be terminated from the study and provided the standard of care at that point in the study.  
• 
Any clinical adverse event (AE), laboratory abnormality, or other medical condition or situation occurs such 
that continued participation in the study would not be in the best interest of the participant 
• 
The participant meets an exclusion criterion (either newly developed or not previously recognized) that 
precludes further study participation. 
 
5.5.2 Handling of Subject Withdrawals or Termination 
 
The Sponsor reserves the right to discontinue the trial prior to inclusion of the intended number of subjects. After such a 
decision, the Investigator must contact all participating subjects within a time period specified by the Sponsor to inform 
them of the decision to discontinue the trial. 
5.6 Premature Suspension or Termination of Study 
 
The following criteria may result in either temporary suspension or early termination of the study: 
• 
New information regarding the safety or efficacy of the investigational product that indicates a change in the 
known risk/benefit profile for the compound, such that the risk/benefit is no longer acceptable for subjects 
participating in the study. 
• 
Significant violation of GCP that compromises the ability to achieve the primary study objectives or 
compromises subject safety. 
 
The Sponsor reserves the right to discontinue the trial for other valid administrative reasons. 
Criteria for Premature Termination or Suspension of Investigational Sites: 
 
• 
A study site may be terminated prematurely or suspended if the site (including the Investigator) is found to 
be in significant violation of GCP, protocol, contractual agreement, or is unable to ensure adequate 
performance of the study. 
 
Procedures for Premature Termination or Suspension of the Study or Investigational Site(s): 
 
• 
In the event that the Sponsor elects to terminate or suspend the study or the participation of an investigational 
site, a study-specific procedure for early termination or suspension will be provided by the Sponsor; the 
procedure will be followed by applicable investigational sites during the course of termination or study 
suspension.  
• 
Appropriate therapy and follow-up should be ensured for any study subject by the sponsor. 
• 
Ensure where required by applicable regulatory requirements that the regulatory authority is properly 
informed.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
6.1.5 Dosing and Administration 
 
Apply full tube amount (4 oz.) to dry hair to completely cover the scalp and hair for index subjects ages 5 and older.  For 
babies, please apply 1 oz. of product, equivalent to ¼ of the study tube amount. For toddlers, please apply 2 oz., equivalent 
to ½ of the study tube amount. Apply closest to the scalp first, and then apply outwards towards the ends of the hair.  
Leave on the hair and scalp for 10 minutes, and then rinse off with water.  
The tube is intended for single use, do not retreat.   
Keep out of reach of children. Use on children should be under the direct supervision of an adult. 
Avoid contact with eyes.  Do not swallow. Thoroughly wash hands after applying lotion. 
Ivermectin lotion should be used in the context of an overall lice management program: 
 
• 
Wash (in hot water) or dry-clean all recently worn clothing, hats, used bedding and towels.  
• 
Wash (in hot water) personal care items such as combs, brushes and hair clips. 
• 
A fine-tooth comb or special nit comb may be used to remove dead lice and nits, as recommended per the FDA 
Guidance on the treatment of Head Lice. 
 
6.1.6 Route of Administration 
 
Ivermectin 0.5% lotion, is for topical use only.  It is not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.   
6.1.7 Blinding 
 
This is a double-blind study, thus Sponsor, CRO, assessor site staff, study monitors, and subjects will be blinded to the 
randomization scheme. The packaging of the study drug products will be similar in appearance to make difference in 
treatment less obvious to the subjects. Blank, opaque diaper labels will be applied to each study tube for maintenance of 
study blinding. Each tube will be packaged in individualized cartons. Neither the Investigator nor the subject should be 
able to identify the received treatment. The dispensed investigational product will NOT be opened by the index subject 
and their family members at the study center. 
The blinding code must not be broken except in emergency situations for which the identification of the study treatment 
of a subject is required by the Investigator to complete a serious adverse event report. In such situations, the Medical 
Monitor or the Investigator will use the Unblinded Treatment List in order to unblind the treatment for the individual 
subject. Unblinded information will be held by designated individual(s), and the date and reason for breaking the blind 
must be recorded.  
The Medical Monitor must be contacted by telephone prior to unblinding but no later than 24 hours after unblinding. As 
the study is blinded, the Investigator should promptly document and explain to the Sponsor any premature unblinding 
(e.g., accidental unblinding, unblinding due to a serious adverse event) of the investigational product(s). 
 
6.1.8 Duration of Therapy 
 
The study is comprised of three phases:  Screening, Treatment, and Follow-Up.  The duration of this study is 15 days (+/- 
3). The Screening Phase is Day -1-0.  The Treatment Phase is Day 1.  Preferably, screening and treatment will occur on the 
same day. The Final Study Visit is on day 15 (+/- 3 days) following administration of the study product.

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
6.1.9 Tracking of Dose and Treatment Compliance 
 
Subject diaries will be distributed and accounted for, along with return of used test tubes.  Subjects will fill out their diaries 
upon treatment application noting the following: 
• 
Time and date of application 
• 
Time and date of removal (washing off the study drug) 
• 
Confirmation that subject disinfected personal clothes, towels, linens and all potentially infected household items 
• 
Confirmation that the entire scalp and hair has been covered by the application 
 
Subjects will return their diaries to the clinical site for compliance review at Follow-up Day 2. The Investigator will verify 
that the subject complied with the application requirements and disinfection regimen. Both the subject and the study 
staff will sign off on completed diary. If the subject has missed the treatment application notation, this is considered a 
protocol deviation and must be reported. 
6.2 Study Drug Accountability 
 
The Sponsor will supply sufficient quantities of the study drug for the completion of this study.   
 
The study pharmacist or designated study personnel will maintain a Drug Receipt Log and a Subject Study Drug 
Accountability Log itemizing all study drug received, dispensed to and returned from each subject during the study. All 
dispensed tubes must be accounted for, and any discrepancies explained. Study site should contact site Clinical Research 
Associate (CRA) in case of any dispensing errors or if discrepancies are discovered. 
 
Prior to site closure and at appropriate intervals during the study, site CRA will perform study drug accountability and 
reconciliation. At the end of the study, the Investigator will retain all the original documentation regarding study drug 
accountability, return, and copies will be sent to the Sponsor. 
All unused and used Study Drug tubes will be returned to the Sponsor or its designee for destruction at the end of the 
study. 
7 Study Procedures and Schedule of Events 
7.1 Study Procedures/Evaluations 
 
Basic demographic information, including date of birth, sex, ethnicity, and race will be recorded at the Screening Visit. 
Medical history will be collected at the Screening and Baseline Visits. Relevant medical history, alcohol and tobacco history, 
and past history of head lice will be documented.  
All medications (both prescription and nonprescription, including vitamins, herbals, topical, inhaled, and intranasal) taken 
within 30 days prior to the start of the Study Drug and through the final study visit will be recorded on the appropriate eCRF 
(using their generic and brand names, if known) with the corresponding indication, start and stop dates. At each study visit, 
subjects will be asked whether they have started or discontinued any medication since their previous study visit. This 
includes single use or PRN (as needed) medication use. 
Vital signs will be collected at Baseline Visit 1 and Final Study Visit 5. Vital signs will include body temperature, heart rate 
and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic). Blood pressure and pulse rate will be measured after the subject has been sitting 
restfully for at least 5 minutes. Any abnormal characteristics of vital signs will be evaluated by the Investigator based on 
26 
 

Protocol Number: MAP-7189

subjects to be considered in both the mITT and PP population. 
 
7.7  Participant Access to Study Drug at Study Center 
 
Participants will receive the study medication at their Enrollment/Baseline Visit. 
8  Assessment of Safety 
8.1 Specification of Study Parameters 
 
The Investigator will monitor each subject for clinical evidence of adverse events on a routine basis throughout the study. 
The Investigator will assess and record any AE in detail including the date of onset, description, severity, time course, 
duration and outcome, relationship of the adverse event to study drug, an alternate etiology for events not considered 
“related” or “probably related” to study drug, final diagnosis, if known, and any action(s) taken. For AEs to be considered 
intermittent, the events must be of similar nature and severity and each intermittent AE will be reported separately. AEs 
and SAEs, whether in response to a query, observed by site personnel, or reported spontaneously by the subject will be 
recorded, monitored and followed-up until the resolution (or until the Investigator deems the event to be stable/chronic). 
 
8.1.1 Definition of Adverse Events (AE) 
 
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a 
pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can 
30 
 

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not the event is considered 
causally related to the use of the investigational product. Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAE) will include any AEs reported 
beginning with the first application of study drug on Day 1. 
 
Such an event can result from use of the drug as stipulated in the protocol or labeling, as well as from accidental or 
intentional overdose, drug abuse, or drug withdrawal. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition or illness is considered 
an AE. I.e., if a new signs or symptom or worsening of a sign or symptom was believed by the investigator to be related to 
the study drug and not the disease, then it was recorded as an AE. Clinically significant abnormalities are to be followed 
to resolution (i.e. become stable, return to normal, return to baseline, or become explainable). Changes in vital signs are 
considered to be AEs only if they necessitate therapeutic medical intervention, and/or if the Investigator considers them 
to be AEs. 
 
8.1.2 Definition of Serious Adverse Events (SAE) 
 
If an AE meets any of the following criteria, it is to be reported to the Sponsor’s Safety department and Pharmacovigilance 
as a serious adverse event (SAE) using SAE report form within 24 hours of occurrence or notification to the study site: 
 
Death of Subject 
An event that results in the death of a subject. 
Life-Threatening 
An event that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would have resulted in immediate 
fatality if medical intervention had not been taken. This does not include an event that 
would have been fatal if it had occurred in a more severe form. 
Hospitalization 
An event that results in an admission to the hospital for any length of time. This does not 
include an emergency room visit or admission to an out-patient facility. 
Prolongation of 
Hospitalization 
An event that occurs while the study subject is hospitalized and prolongs the subject's 
hospital stay. 
Congenital Anomaly/birth 
defect 
An anomaly detected at or after birth or any anomaly that result in fetal loss. 
Persistent or Significant 
Disability/Incapacity 
An event that results in a condition that substantially interferes with the activities of daily 
living of a study subject. Disability is not intended to include experiences of relatively 
minor medical significance such as headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, influenza, and 
accidental trauma (e.g., sprained ankle). 
Other Important Medical 
Event 
An important medical event that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in 
death or hospitalization, but based on medical judgment may jeopardize the subject and 
may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above 
(i.e., death of subject, life- threatening, hospitalization, prolongation of hospitalization, 
congenital anomaly, or persistent or significant disability/incapacity). Examples of such 
events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an emergency 
room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in inpatient 
hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
8.1.3 Definition of Unanticipated Problems 
 
An Unexpected Adverse Event is any AE that is not identified in nature, severity, or frequency in the current Investigator’s 
Brochure or product information. 
A Serious and Unexpected Suspected Adverse Reaction (SUSAR) is any suspected adverse reaction to the study product 
that is both serious and unexpected.  
 
8.2 Classification of an Adverse Event 
8.2.1 Severity of Event 
 
The Investigator will use the following definitions to rate the severity of each AE and SAE: 
Mild 
The event is transient and easily tolerated by the subject. 
Moderate 
The event causes the subject discomfort and interrupts the subject's usual activities. 
Severe 
The event causes considerable interference with the subject's usual activities and may be 
incapacitating or life-threatening. 
 
8.2.2 Relationship to Study Drug 
 
The Investigator will use the following definitions to assess the relationship of the AE/SAE to the use of investigational 
product: 
Definitely Related 
The event occurred within a reasonable time after drug administration or drug 
concentration and body fluids demonstrated that the study drug was present: the event 
could not be reasonably explained by known characteristics including concomitant 
therapies; the adverse event abated after discontinuing the study drug. 
Probably Related 
The event has a strong temporal relationship to study drug or recurs on re-challenge and 
another etiology is unlikely or significantly less likely. 
Possibly Related 
The event has a strong temporal relationship to the study drug and an alternative etiology 
is equally or less likely compared to the potential relationship to study drug. 
Probably Not Related 
The event has little or no temporal relationship to the study drug and/or a more likely 
alternative etiology exists. 
Not Related 
The event is due to an underlying or concurrent illness or effect of another drug and is not 
related to the study drug (e.g., has no temporal relationship to study drug or has a much 
more likely alternative etiology). 
 
If an Investigator's opinion of not related to study drug is given, an alternate etiology must be provided by the Investigator 
for the AE. 
 
8.2.3 Expectedness 
 
The Principal Investigator will be responsible for determining whether an AE is expected or unexpected. An AE will be 
considered unexpected if the nature, severity, or frequency of the event is not consistent with the risk information 
previously described for the study agent.

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
8.3 Time Period and Frequency for Event Assessment and Follow-Up 
 
The Investigator will monitor each subject for clinical evidence of adverse events on a routine basis throughout the study. 
Any AE/SAE prior to the Baseline visit will be considered past medical history (PMH). The AE reporting period for this study 
begins upon receiving the first application of investigational product and ends at the final protocol required visit. SAE(s) 
that are observed or spontaneously reported during the subject’s participation in the trial will be captured and monitored 
until the Investigator deems the event to be chronic or not clinically significant or the subject to be stable. 
8.4 Reporting Procedures 
 
8.4.1 Adverse Event Reporting 
8.4.2 Serious Adverse Event Reporting 
 
In the event of a SAE, whether related to study drug or not, the Investigator or representative must make an accurate and 
adequate report consisting of at least the minimum criteria (Site and Subject ID, Date site became aware of the event, SAE 
Term, Seriousness criteria, Study Drug information, Investigator/Reporter and site address) within 24 hours by email, fax, 
or telephone to Biorasi Safety and Pharmacovigilance team. Biorasi Safety and Pharmacovigilance team will complete the 
SAE report onto a MedWatch 3500A form for evaluation and convey for review by the Medical Monitor and Sponsor 
contact. Accurate Completion of the MedWatch 3500A form will consist of all data supplied such as Subject’s demography, 
SAE narrative, concomitant medication, laboratory parameters and relevant medical history. 
In addition, if required by the applicable IRB/IEC, the Investigator will submit the SAE reports to the IRB/IEC within 15 
calendar days of discovering the SAE, or alternatively, within accordance of applicable regulations or IRB/IEC requirements. 
Copies of each report with the associated documentation (i.e., queries, medical records, lab records, IRB/IEC 
communications and all source documents) will be kept in the site’s study file. 
A subject experiencing one or more SAEs will receive treatment and follow-up evaluations by the Investigator or may be 
referred to another appropriate physician for treatment and follow-up. The Investigational Site will be responsible for 
collection and forwarding follow-up SAE information to the Biorasi Safety and Pharmacovigilance.

8.4.3 Unanticipated Problem Reporting 
 
All Serious and Unexpected Suspected Adverse Reactions (SUSAR) will be submitted as expedited reports to the applicable 
regulatory authorities/federal agencies. 
8.4.4 Reporting of Pregnancy 
 
If a subject, or female partner of male subject becomes pregnant during the participation in the study, the Investigator 
will immediately discontinue the subject from the study and contact the Medical Monitor and the Sponsor. Diligent efforts 
will be made to determine the outcome for all pregnancy exposures in the clinical trial. Information on the status of the 
mother and the child will be forwarded to the Sponsor’s Safety Team using the Pregnancy Data Collection Form. Generally, 
33 
 

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
follow-up will occur within 6 to 8 weeks following the estimated delivery date. Any premature termination of the 
pregnancy will be reported. Detailed guidance on the reporting of Pregnancies will be provided in SAE and Pregnancy 
Reporting Guidance. 
 
8.5 Safety Oversight 
 
Safety oversight will be under the direction of a medical monitor, working with the Biorasi Safety team.  The medical 
monitor is an expert that advises the study investigators and monitors participant safety.  The role of the medical monitor 
is to: 
• 
Review all adverse events on a regular basis throughout the trial 
• 
Be available to advise the investigators on trial-related medical questions or problems 
• 
Evaluate cumulative participant safety data and make recommendations regarding the safe continuation of 
the study 
 
The medical monitor remains blinded throughout the conduct of the clinical trial unless unblinding is warranted to 
optimize management of an adverse event or for other safety reasons. 
9 Clinical Monitoring 
 
Conducting Interim Monitoring Visits (IMV) helps verify that the rights, safety and well-being of Study participants are 
being protected, the Study data is accurate, complete, and verifiable from Source Documents and the Study is being 
conducted in compliance with the currently approved Protocol/amendment(s), Good Clinical Practice (GCP), Biorasi SOPs 
and site SOPs (if any) and other Regulatory requirement(s). 
Clinical site monitoring is conducted to ensure that the rights and well-being of human subjects are protected, that the 
reported trial data are accurate, complete, and verifiable, and that the conduct of the trial is in compliance with the 
currently approved protocol/amendment(s), with GCP, and with applicable regulatory requirement(s).   
A separate Clinical Monitoring Plan (CMP) will be used in this study. The CMP will outline in detail the parameters for 
clinical site monitoring, including who will conduct the monitoring, the frequency of monitoring, at what level of detail 
monitoring will be performed, and the distribution of reports.   
10 Statistical Considerations 
 
The sections below summarize the intended statistical methods and analyses of data for the study. 
Descriptive statistical methods will be used to summarize the data from this study, with confidence intervals calculated 
for the primary and secondary efficacy endpoints. Unless stated otherwise, the term “descriptive statistics” refers to 
number of subjects (n), mean, median, standard deviation (SD), minimum, and maximum for continuous data and 
frequencies and proportions for categorical data. The term “treatment group” refers to randomized treatment 
assignment: active-test, active-reference, and placebo. All data collected during the study will be included in data listings. 
Unless otherwise noted, the data will be sorted first by treatment assignment, subject number, and then by date within 
each subject number. 
Unless specified otherwise, all statistical testing will be two-sided and will be performed using a significance (alpha) level 
of 0.05. 
All statistical analyses will be conducted with the SAS® System, version 9.4. or higher.

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
 
10.1 Statistical and Analytical Plans 
 
A more detailed statistical analysis plan will be written prior to finalization of the clinical trial database. Any changes to 
the planned methods and analyses will be described and justified in the protocol and/or in the final clinical study report, 
as appropriate. 
 
10.2 Data Sets to Be Evaluated 
 
The subject populations are defined as follows: 
Safety Population includes all subjects who were randomized and dispensed treatment.  This is the population that will 
be used for the safety assessments. 
Modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) population includes all Index subjects who met all inclusion/exclusion criteria, were 
randomized, dispensed treatment, and had at least one post-treatment efficacy evaluation.  This is the primary population 
for determination of the superiority of the active treatments over placebo. 
Per-Protocol (PP) population includes all mITT subjects who applied their dispensed treatment, had no protocol deviations 
which could have interfered with the accurate assessment of treatment efficacy, and returned for the Day 15 visit within 
the allowed window. This is the primary population for the efficacy comparisons between the two active treatment 
groups.  
Subjects whose condition worsens and require alternate or supplemental therapy for the treatment of head lice during 
the study will be discontinued, included in both the mITT and PP population analyses as treatment failures. Subjects who 
discontinue early for reasons other than treatment failure will be excluded from the PP population, but included in the 
mITT population, using Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). 
Efficacy analyses will be performed on both the per-protocol population and the mITT population. Safety analyses will be 
performed using the Safety population as defined. 
 
10.3 Statistical Hypotheses 
 
Primary Efficacy Endpoint: 
The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of index subjects who are lice free (defined as no live lice, adults or 
nymphs) 14 days (Day 15) after treatment.   
 
Secondary Efficacy Endpoint: 
 
The secondary efficacy endpoint is the number and percentage of all index subjects who are lice-free at Day 2. 
 
10.4 Description of Statistical Methods 
10.4.1 Subject Disposition and Demography 
 
Descriptive statistics will be generated by treatment group for selected continuous variables. The number and percentage 
of subjects in each class of categorical demographic and Baseline variables (e.g., gender, ethnicity, and race) will be 
tabulated by treatment group. Individual subject demographic and Baseline characteristic data will be listed. 
35 
 

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
10.4.2 Assessment of Bioequivalence and Superiority for Primary and Secondary Endpoints 
 
Bioequivalence assessment will be evaluated by comparing proportions of index subjects cured in the test and the 
reference treatment groups. Bioequivalence between the test and the reference product will be established if the 90% 
continuity-corrected confidence interval for the difference in proportions cured between test and reference treatment is 
contained within the equivalence limits [-0.20, +0.20]. 
The 90% confidence interval criteria are the same as rejecting the null hypotheses for the following two, one-sided t-tests, 
each at the α = 0.05 significance level: 
 
Ho: πT – πR < -0.20 
Ho: πT – πR > 0.20 
 
Ha: πT – πR ≥ -0.20 
Ha: πT – πR ≤ 0.20 
 
 
Combined Ha: -0.20 ≤ πT – πR ≤ 0.20 
 
 
where,  
 
πT and πR = the true cure proportions for Test and Reference treatments, respectively. 
 
 
 
The Bioequivalence results in the PP population will be considered definitive, with those in the mITT population 
considered supportive. 
The superiority assessments for each active treatment vs. the Placebo will be conducted using two-sided, continuity 
corrected Z-tests based on the following hypotheses: 
 
Ho: πT = πP 
Ho: πR = πP 
 
Ha: πT ≠ πP 
Ha: πR ≠ πP 
 
where,  
 
πT, πR, and πP = the true cure proportions for Test, Reference, and Placebo treatments, respectively. 
If both null hypotheses are rejected (p<0.05) and the observed cure proportions for the Test and Reference treatments 
are greater than that for the Placebo, then Superiority will be considered to have been demonstrated.   
The Superiority results in the mITT population will be considered definitive, with those in the PP population considered 
supportive. 
 
10.4.3 Safety Analyses 
 
The reporting of safety data is descriptive, and will include all subjects in the Safety population. The variables for safety 
endpoints are AEs. AEs will be summarized based on their frequency and their severity. All AEs will be coded using Medical 
Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) and summarized by treatment group. Data will be summarized using 
preferred term and primary system organ class. 
If a subject experiences multiple events that map to a single preferred term, the greatest severity and strongest 
Investigator assessment of relation to study drug will be assigned to the preferred term for the appropriate summaries. 
Should an event have a missing severity or relationship, it will be classified as having the highest severity and/or strongest 
relationship to study drug. 
Summaries of treatment-emergent AEs will include any AEs reported beginning with the first dose of study drug on Day 1. 
The occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events will be summarized by treatment group using preferred terms, 
system organ classifications, and severity. Separate summaries of treatment-emergent serious adverse events, treatment-

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
emergent adverse events related to study drug, and events leading to the discontinuation of study drug will be generated. 
All adverse events reported will be listed for individual subjects showing both verbatim and preferred terms. 
Concomitant medications will be coded using the World Health Organization (WHO) drug dictionary. These data will be 
summarized by treatment group. Previous and concomitant medications will be presented in a data listing. 
 
10.5 Sample Size 
 
Under the assumption that the Test and Reference treatments are equally efficacious with a true cure rate of at least 67%, 
and that the placebo has a true cure rate no greater than 27%, computer simulations were performed to determine the 
probability (power) of study success for different sample sizes. Study success in a simulated trial was defined as having 
the 90% continuity-corrected confidence interval in the PP population for the Test-to-Reference difference in cure 
proportions be contained in the bioequivalence interval [-0.20, +0.20] at the same time that both active treatments were 
demonstrated in the mITT population to have cure rates that were greater than, and statistically different (p<0.05) from, 
that of the placebo.  It was assumed that approximately 90% of the mITT subjects would qualify as PP ones. 
It was determined that for at least an 80% probability of study success, 280 mITT index subjects would be needed 
(120:120:40; Test: Reference: Placebo) to obtain 252 PP ones (108:108:36; Test: Reference: Placebo).   
11 Source Documents and Access to Source Data/Documents 
 
The Investigator/institution will permit study-related monitoring, audits/inspections, IRB/IEC review and regulatory 
inspection providing direct access to source documents, including all medical records or pertinent data relevant to the 
audit/inspection. Source documents will represent a record of the raw data.  Source document templates may be provided 
by either the clinical site, Sponsor representative, or the Sponsor. If provided by the clinical site, the source document 
template must be provided to the Sponsor prior to subject recruitment.  The source documents will become part of the 
subject's permanent medical record maintained by the clinical site. If computerized systems are used to create, modify, 
maintain, archive, retrieve or transmit source data, they must comply with the applicable regulatory regulations and/or 
guidance (ex. 21 CFR Part 11 and 312). 
12 Ethics/Subject Protection 
12.1 Ethical Standard 
 
The study will be conducted according to the protocol, GCP, as outlined in the ICH Guidelines and Code of Federal 
Regulations. Written informed consent for the study must be obtained from all subjects before protocol specific 
procedures are performed. Subjects must be informed of their right to withdraw from the study at any time and for any 
reason.  
12.2 Institutional Review Board 
 
It is the responsibility of the Investigator to have prospective approval of the study protocol, protocol amendments, 
informed consent forms, and other relevant documents, (e.g., recruitment advertisements, subject’s diaries, if applicable) 
from the IRB/IEC. All correspondence with the IRB/IEC will be retained in the Investigator File. Copies of IRB/IEC approvals 
should be forwarded to the Sponsor or its designee. 
The only circumstance in which an amendment may be initiated prior to IRB/IEC approval is where the change is necessary 
to eliminate apparent immediate hazards to the subjects. In case of such an event, the Investigator must notify the IRB/IEC 
and the Sponsor in writing immediately after the implementation.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
 
12.3 Informed Consent Process 
12.3.1 Other Informational Documents Provided to Participants 
 
In addition to IRB/IEC approval, all other required approvals (e.g. approval from local Research and Development Board 
or Scientific Committee) required by the individual site for participating in this study will be obtained by the Investigator 
prior to recruitment of subjects into the study and shipment of the investigational product(s). It is the responsibility of the 
Investigator to notify the Sponsor and the CRO of the requirement of such approvals prior to participating tin the study. 
 
12.3.2 Consent Procedures and Documentation 
 
It is the responsibility of the Investigator to give each subject (or the subject’s acceptable representative), prior to inclusion 
in the trial, full and adequate verbal and written information regarding the objective and procedures of the trial and the 
possible risks involved. The subjects must be informed about their right to withdraw from the trial at any time. 
Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the Investigator, or a person designated by the Investigator, to obtain signed 
informed consent forms from each subject or the subject’s legally acceptable representative prior to inclusion in the trial. 
The Investigator will retain the original of each subject's signed consent form. 
The informed consent form will be in compliance with ICH GCP, local regulatory, and legal requirements. The informed 
consent form used in this study, and any changes made during the course of the study, must be prospectively approved 
by both the IRB/IEC and the Sponsor before use, and shared with the subject and/or their representative for continued 
inclusion in the study.  
   
12.4 Participant and Data Confidentiality 
 
All parties will ensure protection of subject personal data and will not include subject names on any Sponsor forms, 
reports, publications, or in any other disclosures, except where required by law. In case of data transfer, the Sponsor will 
maintain high standards of confidentiality and protection of subject personal data. 
The Sponsor and designees affirm and uphold the principle of the subject’s right to protection against invasion of privacy. 
Throughout this study, a subject’s source data will only be linked to the Sponsor’s clinical study database or documentation 
via a unique identification number. As permitted by all applicable laws and regulations, limited subject attributes, such as 
sex, age, or date of birth, and subject initials may be used to verify the subject and accuracy of the subject’s unique 
identification number. 
To comply with ICH Guidelines for GCP and to verify compliance with this protocol, the Sponsor requires the Investigator 
to permit its monitor or designee’s monitor, representatives from any regulatory authority (e.g., FDA), the Sponsor’s 
designated auditors, and the appropriate IRBs and IECs to review the subject’s original medical records (source data or 
documents), including, but not limited to, laboratory test result reports, ECG reports, admission and discharge summaries 
for hospital admissions occurring during a subject’s study participation, and autopsy reports. Access to a subject’s original 
medical records requires the specific authorization of the subject as part of the informed consent process. 
Copies of any subject source documents that are provided to the Sponsor must have certain personally identifiable 
information removed (i.e., subject name, address, and other identifier fields not collected on the subject’s CRF).

Protocol Number: MAP-7189                                                                                                                                                       
 
Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
13 Data Handling and Record Keeping 
13.1 Study Records Retention 
 
To enable evaluations and/or audits from regulatory authorities or the Sponsor, the Investigator agrees to keep records, 
including the identity of all participating subjects (sufficient information to link records, e.g., CRFs and hospital records), 
all original signed Informed Consent Forms, copies of all CRFs, SAE forms, source documents, detailed records of drug 
disposition, and adequate documentation of relevant correspondence (e.g., letters, meeting minutes, telephone calls 
reports).  
The records will be retained by the Investigator according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), local 
regulations, or as specified in the Clinical Study Agreement. 
If the Investigator becomes unable for any reason to continue to retain study records for the required period (e.g., 
retirement, relocation), the Sponsor will be prospectively notified. The study records must be transferred to a designee 
acceptable to the Sponsor, such as another Investigator, another institution, or to the Sponsor. The Investigator must 
obtain Sponsor’s written permission before disposing of any records, even if retention requirements have been met. 
13.2 Protocol Deviations 
 
The Investigator should not deviate from the protocol, except where necessary to eliminate an immediate hazard to study 
subjects. The site should document all protocol deviations in the subject’s source documents. In the event of a significant 
deviation, the site will notify the Sponsor or its designee (and IRB or IEC, as required). Significant deviations include, but 
are not limited to, those that involve fraud or misconduct, increase the health risk to the subject, or confound 
interpretation of primary study assessments. Deviations from the inclusion/exclusion criteria will not be permitted unless 
written approval by the Sponsor has been obtained. Should other unexpected circumstances arise that will require 
deviation from protocol-specified procedures, the Investigator will contact the Sponsor or designee at the below 
mentioned address in order to determine the appropriate course of action.  
Site will be responsible for proper maintaining and filing of all Protocol Deviation related documentation in the site files. 
Protocol Compliance review: 
• 
Verify that the Investigator and lnvestigational Site personnel are adhering to the IRB/IEC approved Protocol 
and all amendments. In addition to the Protocol, the Monitoring Plan may include (or reference) verification 
strategies which define a percentage of data points to be reviewed or other methodologies for verification of 
lnvestigational Site compliance. The Monitoring Plan should be followed regarding verification and study 
specific problem escalation, however the below are items that are often reviewed to verify Protocol 
compliance:  
o 
Checking that the correct randomization and Protocol-defined procedures, assessments and sampling 
requirements (if applicable) are being followed.  
o 
If unblinding has occurred (accidental or intentional), determine if the unblinding was done by 
authorized personnel, after consultation with the relevant Study team member(s) (e.g. Medical 
Monitor or Sponsor) and that the occurrence and reporting was appropriately documented in Source 
Documents, the regulatory binder and CRF, as required.  
• 
Verify that the Investigator is enrolling only eligible Study participants and all entry criteria are satisfied for 
each Study participant verified, as per the current approved Protocol. Documentation and verification of 
participant status in the study. 
• 
Verify that no prohibited medications or changes in dose for indication-related medications are being used 
without prior approval from Medical Monitor or Sponsor Designee.

Version 1.3;   28 December 2017 
  
 
• 
Address any protocol deviations with site personnel during the IMV and identify ways to prevent the 
recurrence of similar issues e.g. training the site team on that particular issue.  
 
13.3 Publication and Data Sharing Policy 
 
No publication or disclosure of study results will be permitted, except under the terms and conditions of a separate, 
written agreement between Sponsor and the Investigator and/or the Investigator’s institution. 
 
The Sponsor must have the opportunity to review and approve all proposed abstracts, manuscripts, or presentations 
regarding this study prior to submission for publication/presentation. Any information identified by the Sponsor as 
confidential must be deleted prior to submission. 
14 Conflict of Interest Policy 
 
The independence of this study from any actual or perceived influence, such as by the pharmaceutical industry, is critical.  
Therefore, any actual conflict of interest of persons who have a role in the design, conduct, analysis, publication, or any 
aspect of this trial will be disclosed and managed.  Furthermore, persons who have a perceived conflict of interest will be
