Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) suffer from acute and chronic post-bullous wounds along with impaired skin healing. These issues are attributed not only to mucocutaneous fragility and abnormal healing directly related to quantitative and/or qualitative constitutional abnormalities of collagen VII but also to a contingent cutaneous and systemic inflammatory component. This inflammatory aspect contributes to the perpetuation of skin lesions and delayed healing. Our primary objective is to define the systemic immunological/inflammatory signature of patients with RDEB with an aim to develop a strategy that involves using stem cells with high immunomodulatory/anti-inflammatory capacity such as allogeneic placental stem cells (WJ-MSCs and trophoblasts).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Analysis of the cellular (PBMC) and cytokine (serum) immunological signature in the peripheral blood of EBDR subjects and healthy controls.		Up to 1 year
Secondary	Cellular, cytokine, and lipid immunological signatures of immune cells	Immune cells are purified from skin biopsies and soiled dressings of EBDR patients and healthy controls. Individual data will be correlated to the severity grade of EBD.	Up to 1 year
Secondary	Immunogenicity and impact of WJ-MSCs and trophoblasts	Immunogenicity and impact of WJ-MSCs and trophoblasts on cellular, cytokine, and lipid immunological signatures, activation, and proliferation of peripheral or cutaneous immune cells from EBDR patients and healthy controls, using in-vitro models.	Up to 1 year
Secondary	Immunogenicity and impact of EV/Ex	Immunogenicity and impact of EV/Ex on cellular, cytokine, and lipid immunological signatures, activation, and proliferation of peripheral or cutaneous immune cells of EBDR patients and healthy controls, using in-vitro models.	Up to 1 year
