About this study

Official title: A Multicentre, Randomised, Double-blind, Dose-exploratory, Controlled Drug and Placebo-controlled Phase II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetic Profile, and Immunogenicity of KJ101 for Wound Debridement in Deep II Degree Burns

This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, dose-finding, active- and placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial will evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetic profile, and immunogenicity of KJ101 for the debridement of deep second-degree burns. The trial will provide supporting evidence for subsequent Phase III trials.

Read the detailed description

This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, dose-finding, active- and placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial will evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetic profile, and immunogenicity of KJ101 in the debridement of deep second-degree burns. The aim is to provide supporting evidence for subsequent Phase III clinical trial.

The study comprises four treatment groups: KJ101 at a dose of 800 U/mL; KJ101 at a dose of 1200 U/mL; an active comparator group receiving chymotrypsin at a dose of 800 U/mL; and a placebo control group.

Approximately 144 screened and qualified subjects will be randomised at a ratio of 1:1:1:1 to one of the four groups. All interventions will be administered locally to the target wound at the following frequencies: once daily prior to complete necrotic tissue debridement, and then every other day post-debridement.

Treatment will continue until complete wound healing is achieved (with a maximum treatment duration of 28 days), after which there will be a one-week safety follow-up period will be conducted.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • KJ101Drug

    1. Clean the wound before applying medication.
    2. Apply KJ101 (800U/mL) to the wound.
    3. Apply a standard wound dressing after treatment.
    4. Apply once daily until complete debridement of necrotic tissue has been achieved. After debridement, apply the medication every other day until the wound closes (maximum treatment duration: 28 days).
  • ChymotrypsinDrug

    1. Clean the wound before applying medication.
    2. Apply Chymotrypsin (800U/mL) to the wound.
    3. Apply a standard wound dressing after treatment.
    4. Apply once daily until complete debridement of necrotic tissue has been achieved. After debridement, apply the medication every other day until the wound closes (maximum treatment duration: 28 days).
  • Placebo (Sodium Chloride Injection 0.9%)Drug

    1. Clean the wound before applying medication.
    2. Apply Placebo (Sodium Chloride Injection 0.9%) to the wound.
    3. Apply a standard wound dressing after treatment.
    4. Apply once daily until complete debridement of necrotic tissue has been achieved. After debridement, apply the medication every other day until the wound closes (maximum treatment duration: 28 days).

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse events

    Assessing the incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) via the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.

    Measured: day 35

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. The time required for burn wounds to heal completely.

    The time taken for the burn wound to reach full epithelialisation, i.e. complete healing.

    Measured: day 3 to day 28

  2. Rate of complete healing of burn wounds.

    The complete burn wound healing rate was calculated as follows:

    (Number of subjects with complete burn wound healing within 28 days of randomisation/Total number of subjects) x 100%.

    Complete wound healing of burn wounds in patients was assessed using the criterion of 100% epithelialisation of the burn wound.

    Measured: day 28

  3. The time it takes to completely remove necrotic tissue from burn wound.

    Necrotic tissue in a wound was defined as inactive tissue that had lost its ability to heal due to irreversible cell death caused by thermal injury. The complete removal of necrotic tissue from a burn wound was defined as the point at which the wound was fully cleared of necrotic tissue, the base was clean, and new tissue had formed.

    Measured: day 3 to day 28

  4. Pain intensity evaluation (VAS score)

    A visual analogue scale (VAS) is used to assess pain. The basic method involves a 10 cm scale divided into 10 points, with '0' and '10' at each end. '0' represents no pain, while '10' represents the most severe and intolerable pain possible.

    Measured: day 1 to day 28

  5. Pharmacokinetics of KJ101 (Cmax)

    Maximum observed serum concentration of KJ101 following dosing (Cmax)

    Measured: day 28

  6. Pharmacokinetics of KJ101 (AUC)

    Area under the serum concentration versustime curve (AUC)

    Measured: day 28

  7. Pharmacokinetics of KJ101 (t1/2)

    Half-life of KJ101

    Measured: day 28

  8. Pharmacokinetics of KJ101 (CL)

    Clearance(CL) is a measure of the ability of the body to clear KJ101

    Measured: day 28

  9. Pharmacokinetics of KJ101 (Vz)

    Vz = Volume of distribution during the elimination phase

    Measured: day 28

  10. Immunogenicity

    Immunogenicity of KJ101 (Anti-KJ101 antibody) in patients

    Measured: day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing KJ101 and Chymotrypsin in people with Burn and Burn Wounds - Partial Thickness (2nd Degree), run by Shanghai Bao Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 6 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2025. 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 China. 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse events (time frame: day 35). 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 17 Jun 2025.
