Summary

This study tests an eye drop called KB803 for people with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB), a rare genetic condition that causes fragile skin and repeated cornea scratches. The trial will include 16 people aged 6 months and older. Each person will receive both KB803 and a placebo at different times to see if the drops reduce how often cornea scratches happen and how much eye pain they cause.
