Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test how well the investigational treatment, Engineered Skin Substitutes (ESS-W), works for covering and treating burn wounds.

The areas of the body that are treated with ESS-W will be compared to similar areas treated with the patient's own skin (split-thickness skin autograft (AG)). A skin autograft (AG) will be performed by taking healthy skin from one area of the body and placing it on the burned area.


Clinical Trial Description

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous engineered skin substitute (ESS-W) compared to conventional split-thickness AG for the treatment of extensive, deep partial- and full-thickness thermal burns. A matched and randomized burn site format will be used to evaluate the successful graft take on excised deep partial- and full-thickness burns when grafted with either 1) unmeshed ESS-W or 2) meshed AG (the current standard treatment of split thickness AG).

This research study is divided into five study periods: (1) Screening Period of up to one week and (2) Pre-Grafting Period, which will last approximately 35-45 days, (3) Grafting Day(s), which are the day(s) on which grafts are applied (i.e., First Graft: Day 0 and the optional subsequent Grafting Day i.e., Second Graft: Day 0), (4) Post Grafting Observation Period, which begins with 28 days follow-up after each Grafting Day(s), and continues till Post-Operative Month (POM) 6 from the last Grafting Day, and (5) Anecdotal Observation Period ;
