Summary

This trial studies the safety of a new treatment for wounds in people with a certain skin disorder.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients aged 6 and older with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) who have stable pain medication regimens and at least one wound larger than 20 cm2 that's been present for over six months. Participants must not be pregnant, use reliable birth control, and cannot have a history of certain allergies or recent investigational therapies.
What is being tested?
The trial tests EB-101, which are engineered skin sheets applied surgically to treat wounds caused by RDEB. It aims to assess the safety of this treatment in both new patients and those previously treated with EB-101.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, potential risks may include reactions related to surgery, anesthesia complications, infection risk at the wound site, or possible immune responses against the introduced C7 protein.
