Phase I/II ex vivo gene therapy clinical trial for RDEB using autologous skin equivalent grafts genetically corrected with a COL7A1-encoding SIN retroviral vector
EU CTIS ID: 2024-518368-10-00
What this study is testing
The primary objective of this phase I/II clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of grafting SIN RV-mediated COL7A1 gene-modified autologous SE in adults with RDEB at M1, M2, M3, M6, M12 after grafting. This evaluation will be continued during a reglementary 5-year follow up at M18, M24, M30, M36, M42, M48, M54, and M60.
