In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to demonstrate the complete BU lesion healing rate by 52 weeks after treatment initiation, without relapse and/or curative intent excision surgery, after 10-28 days of telacebec (T) treatment. Males and females age 18 and older will be included. โ€ข Participants will attend visits every 2 weeks during treatment and thereafter every 2 weeks until week 24 Thereafter they will be followed by visits at weeks 30, 40, and 52. From week 10 to week 52, if the lesion has healed, follow-up visits may be remote.
