Study Summary

This trial will randomly assign one person's lesions to receive either a new treatment or the control treatment to test its efficacy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, confirmed by specific tests. Participants must have skin ulcers between 5-20 cm2 in size that are stable and not infected. Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or not using contraception if of childbearing potential cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study involves applying a new treatment called ALLO-ASC-SHEET to three skin lesions and a placebo (Vehicle control) to one lesion on the same person. The assignment of treatments to each lesion is decided randomly at enrollment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects aren't specified here, typical concerns may include local reactions like redness or discomfort at the site where ALLO-ASC-SHEET is applied.

Answered by AI

To what extent does the ALLO-ASC-SHEET procedure pose a risk to users?

"Because Phase 2 trials lack evidence of efficacy, the safety rating for ALLO-ASC-SHEET was conservatively set to a score of 2."

Answered by AI

What is the total capacity of this research project?

"Affirmative. According to clinicaltrials.gov, this medical experiment is currently seeking participants; the project was first advertised on May 1st 2023 and has recently been updated on August 23rd 2023. 6 individuals need to be recruited from a single location for the trial's completion."

Answered by AI

Is it possible to sign up for participation in this research project?

"This investigation is enrolling 6 patients afflicted with epidermolysis bullosa between the ages of 4 and 60. To be eligible, participants must have reduced or no type 7 collagen in immunofluorescence staining, normal antigens (laminin-332, type 17 collagen etc.), COL7A1 genetic mutation confirmed through mutational analysis, two target skin ulcer lesions measuring 5-20 cm2 each that show minimal change from screening to treatment day; absence of infection related signs/symptoms or visible necrosis in the area where IP will be applied."
