A Single Center, Phase 4, Open-label Prospective Case Series Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Sarecycline for 12 Weeks in Subjects Ages 9 and Over With Truncal Acne

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of oral sarecycline 1.5 mg/kg/day in truncal acne. Patients with moderate to severe acne vulgaris will be observed over a period of 12 weeks. Lesion counts, investigator's global assessments, photography, and safety measures will be assessed for the trunk and face.
