Hyperhidrosis is a disorder of abnormal excessive sweating. Primary hyperhidrosis (armpits, hands, and feet) affects approximately 4.8% of the US population and is believed to be caused by an overactive cholinergic response of the sweat glands. Current therapies have limited effectiveness, significant side effects, and can be invasive and costly. Sofpironium bromide (BBI-4000) is a novel soft-drug in development for the topical treatment of hyperhidrosis. This Phase 3 study will assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of sofpironium bromide gel applied topically to subjects with axillary hyperhidrosis.
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 3 long-term study designed to evaluate the safety, local tolerability and efficacy of sofpironium bromide gel when applied topically to the axillae. Subjects will apply the gel once daily at bedtime, to both axillae. A maximum of 300 subjects, will be randomized to receive one of two sofpironium bromide gel concentrations. Adverse events, vital signs, and local tolerability assessments will be collected at each visit. Urine pregnancy tests will be taken throughout the course of the study for women of child bearing potential. Blood and urine samples will be collected and analyzed for routine hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis parameters at specified visits. Patient-reported outcome assessments will be recorded during the study at predefined time points. The study will be comprised of a total of 17 scheduled visits to take place over a 52 week period.

The Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events Cumulative to Week 48 by Maximum Severity
The number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events cumulative to week 48 by maximum severity based on a 3 point increasing severity scale of: mild, moderate and severe
Time frame: All safety subjects, reaching week 48 or not
Number of Participants With Post-baseline Local Tolerability Assessments Results by Treatment Group (Population: Safety)
Number of participants reporting: local tolerability symptoms and severity (worst) symptom ratings; Incidence by subject report of any local symptom type (including Burning, Stinging, Itching, Scaling, Erythema) and local symptom worst severity rated either as Absent or Minimal, Mild, Moderate or Severe.
Time frame: All Safety Subject, Baseline-Through study completion (48 weeks) or Not
The Number (%) of Subjects Achieving (-) ≥ 1point (Negative) Change (or Decrease) in the Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Measure-Axillary 11-item (HDSM-Ax-11©) Score
HDSM-Ax-11 is 11-question tool used to measure effect of BBI-4000 gel, 5% and 15 % on disease in subjects with axillary hyperhidrosis. Two questions measured frequency (since yesterday) of underarm sweating outcomes. The range of responses included increasing frequency scale: None of the time (0); A little of the time (1); Some of the time (2); Most of the time (3); All of the time (4). The next seven questions measured severity of underarm sweating outcomes. Range in increasing severity: I did not experience this (0); Mild (1); Moderate (2); Severe (3); Very Severe (4). The last two questions measured the need to change or clean from underarm sweating. Range in increasing degree of need: Not at all (0); Slight (1); Moderate (2); Strong (3); Very Strong (4). The individual mean was derived by taking the total score and dividing by the number of questions answered. A negative change (difference of mean HDSM-Ax-11total scores) reflected improvement in HDSM-Ax-11© score and condition.
Time frame: From baseline to each visit through study completion (48 weeks)
