Safety and Efficacy of RN1001(Avotermin) in Healthy Male Subjects

Cicatrix Clinical Trial

Official title: A Double Blind, Placebo and Standard Care Controlled, Randomised Study to Investigate the Clinical Safety and Toleration, Wound Healing and Antiscarring Potential of Two Applications of Intradermal RN1001 (Avotermin) in Healthy Male Subjects

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

A double blind, Placebo (Vehicle) and Standard Care controlled, randomised study to investigate the clinical safety and toleration (including systemic pharmacokinetics), wound healing and antiscarring potential of two applications of intradermal RN1001 in healthy male subjects

Clinical Trial Description

Double blind, randomised, Placebo and Standard Care controlled, single centre study. Each subject served as their own control, i.e. Arm 1 incisions/biopsies randomly received one of two treatments and Arm 2 incisions/biopsies received the same treatments as for Arm 1 but in reverse. The randomisation of the treatment allowed for control of possible positional effects on healing and subsequent scarring. Subjects were initially dosed and wounded (incisions and punch biopsies) on Day 0 and re-dosed on Day 1. On Day 3, Arm 1 incisions and punch biopsies were re-dosed as per Day 0 and excised, and re-dosed again on Day 4. Arm 2 punch biopsies were excised at Day 5 but not re-dosed. Healed incisions/scars on Arm 2 were excised for histological analysis after 12 months and not re-dosed. All subjects, regardless of treatment were treated according to best practices for moist wound healing. ;
