Post-Operative Use of FS2 to Mitigate Scarring in Burn Patients

Официальное название

Post-operative Topical Administration of Fibrosis Inhibiting Compound FS2 in a Double- Blind, Randomized, Vehicle-controlled Study Evaluating the Safety and Mitigation of Cutaneous Scarring in Skin Graft and Donor Sites in Burn Patients

Обзор

The goal of this study is to see how an ingredient called kynurenic acid (which we named "FS2") affects scar formation in people with burn injuries that need skin graft surgery. A cream with FS2 will be used on both the area where the skin graft was placed and the area where the skin was taken (donor site). The cream will be applied after the skin has healed. This study will help us understand if FS2 is safe and effective for mitigating skin scar formation in burn patients.

Подробное описание

For the first 90 days of the study, neither the patient nor the investigator will know which cream is being used: either the control cream (IP1) or the treatment cream (IP2), which contains 0.5% FS2. The assigned study product will be applied to the donor site and the skin graft site. After the first 90 days, all patients will use the FS2 cream for another 90 days in an open-label period where everyone knows they are receiving FS2.

The graft and donor sites will be photographed and assessed (POSAS and VSS), scored and recorded at the initial visit and again at every assessment visit thereafter.

An interim analysis will take place when about half of the participants (36 people) have finished their Day 90 visit. Based on the results, the study may continue as planned with the two-treatment, blinded design, or it may switch to an open-label format where all patients (those already in the study or newly enrolled) will use the FS2 cream.
