This study is an intra-patient comparison of KB105 and placebo-administered Target Areas. The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate safety and Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) scale improvement of topically administered KB105.
Up to six adult subjects are planned for the Phase I portion of this study. Subjects are enrolled upon obtaining consent and meeting entry criteria. This study is an intra-patient comparison of KB105 and placebo-administered Target Areas. Patients will be evaluated for safety, and Target Areas will be assessed individually with the IGA and VIIS scales. Target Areas will be imaged and evaluated for safety and efficacy. Subjects will be on-trial for approximately 3.5 months.

Improvement of disease severity in the treatment area assessment through Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA)
Time frame: Up to 12 weeks
Visual Index for Ichthyosis Severity (VIIS) scale, lamellar (L) standard
Improvement of disease severity in the treatment area through use of the Visual Index for Ichthyosis Severity scale, lamellar (VIIS-L) standard assessment. The VIIS-L is a 4-point visual scale with 1 representing normal skin and 5 representing severe ichthyosis.
