First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether tacrolimus ointment (Protopic) can safely prevent deep partial-thickness burns from turning into more serious wounds. The ointment works by calming the immune response that often makes burns worse. Researchers will enroll 18 adults aged 50 to 75 with burns on their hands and track how long it takes for the wounds to heal.
