Summary

This study tests a new skin graft made from a patient's own cells, genetically modified to produce a missing protein that causes fragile skin in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). The graft is designed to be permanent and aims to heal wounds safely and effectively. Nine participants aged 7 and older will receive the graft and be monitored for side effects, pain, itch, and wound healing over one year.
