About this study
Official title: A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Intradermal Delivery of CFH Protein Via Ice Microneedles for the Prevention of Radiation-Induced Skin Fibrosis
This phase I, open-label, single-arm, non-randomized clinical trial uses a "3+3" dose-escalation design to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of intradermal delivery of complement factor H (CFH) fragment (human, 860-1231aa) via ice microneedles for the prevention of radiation-induced skin fibrosis in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (excluding nasopharyngeal carcinoma) receiving postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. The main questions are: 1. The safety profile, including dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) within 28 days after the first dose, adverse events, and tolerability. 2.Preliminary efficacy, assessed by changes in irradiated skin thickness, palpation of fibrotic area, CTCAE grade ≤2 fibrosis rate, and quality of life. Participants receive CFH ice microneedle patches twice weekly for a total of 8 doses (starting at 0.5 mg, escalating to 1.0 mg and 2.0 mg), applied to the skin area to be irradiated.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing CFH Protein-loaded Ice Microneedles (0.5 mg), CFH Protein-loaded Ice Microneedles (1.0 mg) and CFH Protein-loaded Ice Microneedles (2.0 mg) in people with Radiation-Induced Skin Fibrosis and Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by West China Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 8 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 8 Jul 2026. 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. 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?
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?
Contact Xingchen Peng, MD, PhD (+8618980606753, pxx2014@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) (time frame: First 28 days after the first study drug administration). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07567235, which also lists 6 linked publications.
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 8 Jul 2026.
