Brief Summary
The CUV152 study will evaluate the safety of afamelanotide in XP-C and XP-V patients, as well as the drug's ability to assist reparative processes following ultraviolet (UV) provoked DNA damage of the skin. It will assess whether SCENESSE® increases the amount of UV light needed to cause DNA damage of skin cells, as well as the extent of skin repair before and after treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Change in minimal erythema dose (MED) in patients with XP-C.
MED is the lowest dose of UV light that causes reddening of the skin.
From baseline to day 76.
Change in MED in patients with XP-V.
MED is the lowest dose of UV light that causes reddening of the skin.
From baseline to day 76.
Secondary Outcomes (14)
Changes in UV-induced DNA damage, as assessed by quantification of UV photoproduct levels in patients with XP-C.
From baseline to day 76.
Changes in UV-induced DNA damage repair capacity, as assessed by quantification of DNA repair mechanisms in patients with XP-C.
From baseline to day 76.
Changes in UV-induced DNA damage, as assessed by quantification of UV photoproduct levels in patients with XP-V.
From baseline to day 76.
Changes in UV-induced DNA damage repair capacity, as assessed by quantification of DNA repair mechanisms in patients with XP-V.
From baseline to day 76.
Change in skin disease severity in patients with XP-C (A).
From baseline to day 76.
- +9 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Afamelanotide
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Patients will receive afamelanotide every two weeks for twelve weeks and undergo a follow up visit 6 months later.

- Females of child-bearing potential (pre-menopausal, not surgically sterile) not using adequate contraceptive measures;
- Sexually active man with a partner of child-bearing potential who is not using adequate contraceptive measures;
- Use of any other prior and concomitant therapy which may interfere with the objective of the study;
- Participation in a clinical trial for an investigational agent.
