Official Title: Phase II Study of Topical Rapamycin to Erase Angiofibromas in TSC-Multicenter Evaluation of a Novel Therapy

Brief Summary:

The study is a multi-center prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled evaluation of the safety and efficacy of a topically applied formulation of rapamycin to cutaneous angiofibromas in subjects with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). Subjects will apply either the topical vehicle containing rapamycin or the topical vehicle alone nightly to their angiofibromas for six months.
