Official title
PMCF Investigation to Compare the Clinical Performance/Benefit of Dermatix With Dermatix Ultra
Overview
The purpose of this PMCF investigation is to determine whether there are differences between the two formulations (Dermatix and Dermatix Ultra) in improving keloid and hypertrophic scars clinical symptoms and in the overall scar perception (including scar appearance and treatment perception). This PMCF investigation has been designed to address the conclusions of the latest CER \[PDPROJ-4-CE-R\] and the objectives. It has been chosen as an appropriate activity as it enables the collection of device-specific data on both device formulations and on the entire intended population. Moreover, the design of the PMCF investigation (single-center, parallel, open-label, two-arm, randomized controlled study) enables the direct comparison of the clinical performance/benefit between the two formulations.
