A Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Multicenter, Placebo-controlled Phase 2 Dose-ranging Trial of the Efficacy and Safety of a New Botanical Drug Product Containing East Indian Sandalwood Oil in the Treatment of Common Warts (Verruca Vulgaris)

Nonclinical studies have shown sandalwood oil to have anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal,
antiviral, and anti-bacterial activities. Previous clinical studies have shown East Indian
Sandalwood oil to be promising as a treatment for common warts in adults and children.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10%, 20%, and
30% East Indian Sandalwood Oil (EISO) ointment compared with the ointment placebo
administered twice daily (bid) for 12 weeks for the treatment of common warts (Verruca
vulgaris).

prohibited areas: the eye area (including eyelids), lips, mouth cavity, nasal cavity,

treatment area for the duration of the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Have less than 2 or more than 10 common warts within the designated treatment area;

13. Have any chronic or acute medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator,
may interfere with the study results or place the subject at undue risk (including
human immunodeficiency virus, systemic lupus erythematosis, viral hepatitis, etc.);

14. Have any active malignancy or are undergoing treatment for any malignancy other than
