About this study
Official title: A Phase 1 Single Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Ascending, Multi-Dose, Within-Subject Controlled Study of RXI-109 for the Treatment of Incision Scars Made in the Abdominal Skin of Healthy Subjects
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple (3) intradermal doses of RXI-109 at small surgical incisions in the abdominal skin of healthy volunteers. The effect of RXI-109 versus placebo on scarring at these incision sites will be evaluated visually, histologically, and by biomarker analysis.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple intradermal administrations of RXI-109
Evaluate safety and tolerability of multiple administrations of RXI-109 at the site of intradermal injection. Examine and assess any and all local and systemic toxicities

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing RXI-109 in people with Cicatrix and Scar Prevention, run by RXi Pharmaceuticals, Corp..
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 3 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple intradermal administrations of RXI-109 (time frame: 12 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 3 Dec 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
