Scientists grow 'Permanent' Gene-Fixed skin to heal devastating wounds

NCT ID NCT07193134

Summary

This study is testing a new, lab-grown skin graft for people with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB), a painful genetic condition that causes fragile, blistering skin. The graft is made from a patient's own skin cells, which are genetically corrected in a lab to produce a missing protein, then grown into sheets and grafted onto wounds. The goal is to see if this personalized graft is safe and helps wounds heal better and with less pain.
