NCT ID NCT06917690

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a gel called Oleogel-S10 on skin wounds in people with inherited epidermolysis bullosa (EB), a condition that causes fragile, blistering skin. The trial includes 6 Japanese children and adults with junctional or dystrophic EB. Participants apply the gel to wounds every few days for 45 days, with follow-up visits every two weeks. The goal is to see if the gel helps wounds close faster and is safe to use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Oleogel-S10 (a topical gel)

What this could lead to

If successful, this gel could become a treatment option to help close and heal skin wounds in people with epidermolysis bullosa, reducing pain and infection risk.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 6 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The gel may not work for all wound types, and side effects are still being studied.
