New hope for blistering skin diseases: drug targets harmful antibodies to heal wounds

NCT ID NCT07011589

First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a drug called efgartigimod can lower harmful antibodies that attack the skin in two rare blistering diseases: recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) and epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA). About 18 participants aged 12 and older will receive the drug to see if it helps wounds heal faster and reduces disease activity. The goal is to improve quality of life by decreasing painful blisters and sores.
