Study Summary
This trial is testing an antimicrobial wound cleansing spray for people with junctional EB or dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who have wounds that are positive for culture of Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The primary aim is to evaluate the change in skin microbiome (bacteria that live on the skin) before, during, and after treatment.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients aged 6 months or older with junctional or dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who have a wound at least 10 cm2 in size that's been present for over 3 weeks and is infected with Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It excludes those on recent antibiotics, using antiseptics, bleach/vinegar baths, or topical treatments at the target site.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests APR-TD011 antimicrobial spray on wounds of people with JEB/DEB to see how it affects skin bacteria before, during, and after an 8-week treatment period. Participants will then stop using the spray for four weeks followed by a six-month open-label use phase where they can choose to use the spray as desired.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not explicitly listed but may include reactions typical of topical treatments such as skin irritation, redness, itching or allergic reactions due to sensitivity to ingredients in the APR-TD011 spray solution.
