This study tests an ointment called diacerein 1% on people with a rare genetic skin condition (EBS) that causes fragile skin and painful blisters. About 80 participants will apply the ointment daily to see if it clears blisters and reduces pain. The trial is double-blind, meaning…

This program provides early access to an experimental drug called CNM-Au8 for people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive nerve disease. Participants must be 18 or older and have a confirmed ALS diagnosis. The goal is to offer treatment to those who cannot join…

This phase 3 trial tests a gene therapy called FCX-007 for people with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, a rare disease that causes fragile skin and painful blisters. The therapy uses the patient's own skin cells, genetically corrected to produce collagen, and injects t…

This study tests a lab-made skin substitute on one patient with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, a rare disease causing fragile skin and chronic wounds. The goal is to see if the graft can reduce wound size and pain. It is an early-stage, single-patient trial, not a cure.

This study tests a lotion called QRX003 in 30 people with Netherton Syndrome, a rare genetic skin condition. The lotion contains a drug that blocks certain enzymes thought to cause skin problems. Researchers are checking if it reduces redness, scaling, and itching compared to a p…

This study tests a treatment called D-Fi, made from a person's own skin cells that are genetically modified to produce a missing protein. It aims to see if injecting these cells into wounds helps them close completely compared to standard care alone. The trial includes 32 childre…

This trial tests a new approach for recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), a rare genetic condition that causes fragile, blistering skin. Researchers take a small piece of the patient's own skin, fix the faulty gene in a lab, grow it into a larger sheet, and graft it …

This study tests whether a special fish skin graft can help deep burn wounds heal without needing as much skin taken from the patient's own body. About 65 adults with deep partial-thickness burns will receive both the fish skin graft and a standard skin graft on different burn ar…

This study tests a stem cell treatment for epidermolysis bullosa, a rare disease causing fragile skin that blisters easily. About 91 people with two types of EB will receive the cells or a placebo through an IV. The main goal is to see if the treatment can safely close stubborn w…

This phase 3 trial tests whether ABCB5-positive stem cells given through an IV can safely and effectively heal wounds in people with epidermolysis bullosa, a rare genetic condition that causes fragile, blistering skin. The study includes 9 participants with a specific type of the…

This study provides an experimental stem cell treatment (HB-adMSCs) to an 83-year-old man with Primary Lateral Sclerosis, a rare nerve disease that causes progressive muscle weakness. The patient's own banked stem cells are used, aiming to slow the disease. This is a single-patie…

This study looks at how well tildrakizumab works for psoriasis in areas that are often hard to treat, like the scalp, nails, genitals, and palms. About 120 adults with moderate to severe psoriasis will receive tildrakizumab and be followed for up to 52 weeks. The goal is to see i…

This study is developing an artificial intelligence app to detect squamous cell carcinoma (a type of skin cancer) in people with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), a rare genetic blistering condition. Twenty adults with RDEB and a history of skin cancer will submi…

This study tests whether a gel made from curcumin (the active part of turmeric) combined with blue LED light can heal painful mouth blisters in people with epidermolysis bullosa, a rare condition that makes skin and mucous membranes extremely fragile. Twenty participants will rec…

This early study will test a special microbubble bath system (Thera-Clean) on 20 people with certain skin diseases like epidermolysis bullosa, ichthyosis, atopic dermatitis, or psoriasis. The goal is to see if the chemical-free bubbles can clean wounds, reduce itching, and improv…

This early-stage study tests whether ELK-003 eye drops can safely reduce eye symptoms in people with two types of epidermolysis bullosa (EB), a rare condition causing fragile skin and blisters. About 20 participants will first be observed without treatment, then receive the eye d…

This study tests whether injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) — made from a woman's own blood — into the vaginal wall can improve sexual function and reduce dryness caused by menopause. Thirty postmenopausal women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause will receive either PRP o…

This study planned to test whether a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection, made from a patient's own blood, could help heal a common wrist ligament injury called TFCC tear. The trial was designed to compare PRP against a placebo in adults with MRI-confirmed tears. However, the st…

This study looked at 81 adults with either palmoplantar psoriasis or palmoplantar eczema, two skin conditions that can look very similar on the palms and soles. Researchers used two special camera techniques—polarized dermoscopy and ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy—to …

This study looks at skin and blood samples from 200 people with ichthyosis (a genetic condition causing dry, scaly skin) and healthy volunteers. Researchers want to find specific markers that could help them understand the disease better and develop new treatments. No treatment i…

This study looks at whether artificial intelligence (AI) can match a dermatologist's diagnosis when a general practitioner sends in photos and questions about a patient's skin condition. Researchers will compare the AI's diagnosis to the dermatologist's for about 1000 adults. The…
