About this study

Official title: A Randomized Trial Comparing Recell® Autologous Epidermal Cells Harvesting Kits Versus Classic Skin Grafts for the Treatment of Acute Burn in Adults and Children

The aim of the study is to compare results obtained with epidermal cell spray and classic skin grafting for epidermal replacement in acute burns

Read the detailed description

Comparing the impact in terms of cicatrisation duration and costs between 2 treatments of deep 2nd and 3rd degree burns.

Determine if the costs of the innovating treatment RECELL®, a priori more expensive, are counterbalanced by a shorter cicatrisation duration and an improved evolution versus a conventional strategy.

Give an information about efficiency improvement of RECELL® with additional costs

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 80% epithelialisation (recipient + owner sites) at one week. Percent epithelialisation at 1, 2 and 6 weeks.

    Measured: at 1, 2 and 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Medical costs at complete epithelialisation

    Measured: At 6, 12 and 18 months

  2. Post-operative pain

    Measured: At 6 weeks

  3. Medical assessment of scar quality

    Measured: at 6 weeks and 6, 12, 18 months

  4. Patient self assessment of scar

    Measured: At 6, 12 and 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing autologous epidermal cells harvesting kits and classic skin grafts in people with Burn, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Not enough patients included). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

80% epithelialisation (recipient + owner sites) at one week. Percent epithelialisation at 1, 2 and 6 weeks. (time frame: at 1, 2 and 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jul 2012.
