Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Age > 2 years (incl.)
- Clinical diagnosis of hereditary EB supported by histological diagnosis (electron microscopy, immunofluorescence antigen mapping) and/or DNA analysis
- The extent of the disease is at least 10% of the body surface
- Participants in a clinical trial of childbearing potential must agree to the use of prescribed contraceptive methods for the duration of the clinical study and for at least 6 months following the last dose of the study medication: a) Women - Proper use of a highly reliable method of contraception, ie combined hormonal contraception (in oral, vaginal or transdermal dosage form), gestagen hormonal contraception associated with ovulation inhibition (in oral or injectable dosage form), non-hormonal intrauterine device or intrauterine device releasing hormones, or the presence of bilateral tubal occlusion, a partner's vasectomy, or adherence to sexual abstinence as part of the patient's normal lifestyle. b) Men - Adherence to sexual abstinence or the use of an adequate contraceptive method (ie condom) in case of sexual intercourse.
- Willingness and ability to adhere to restrictions in the care of study lesions and to adhere to the schedule of visits and examinations during the course of the study.
You likely can't join if
- Systemic infection or sepsis 7 days before MSC administration
- Life expectancy less than 90 days
- Severe immune response to allogeneic human cells
- Other severe somatic or psychiatric illnesses that are not adequately controlled and, in the opinion of the investigator, would not allow the study protocol to be followed
- Previous administration of a medicinal product in a clinical trial in the 30 days or 5 elimination half-lives (whichever is longer) before the enrolment to this trial (applies to clinical investigations of medical devices, as well)
