New treatment option for Burn Scar
Official title Post-Operative Use of FS2 to Mitigate Scarring in Burn Patients
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06807021
What this study is testing
What is IP1 control cream (Vehicle base)?
IP1 control cream (Vehicle base) is an investigational medicine, given as a treatment applied to the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for burn scar.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The goal of this study is to see how an ingredient called kynurenic acid (which we named "FS2") affects scar formation in people with burn injuries that need skin graft surgery. A cream with FS2 will be used on both the area where the skin graft was placed and the area where the skin was taken (donor site).
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- This is a blinded study.
