Own skin cell spray could speed burn healing and cut scarring
NCT ID NCT07555418
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether spraying a patient's own skin cells onto second-degree burns, followed by a biological dressing, helps wounds heal faster and with less scarring. About 386 people will take part across multiple hospitals in China. Researchers will compare those getting the cell spray plus dressing to those receiving standard burn care, tracking healing time and scar quality for up to 6 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- autologous epidermal cell suspension (a spray made from the patient's own skin cells)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could speed up burn healing and reduce scarring, improving recovery and quality of life for burn patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less reliable. The treatment is still being tested and may not work better than standard care.
