About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Single Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Ascending Dose, Within-Subject Controlled Study of RXI-109 for the Treatment of Incision Scars Made in the Pannus of Healthy Women Who Will Later Undergo Elective Abdominoplasty

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intradermal administration of RXI-109 at small surgical incisions in the abdominal skin that will later be removed during an elective abdominoplasty. The effect of RXI-109 versus placebo on scarring at these incision sites will be evaluated visually and histologically.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of intradermal administration of RXI-109

    Evaluate safety and tolerability of RXI-109 at site of intradermal injection. Examination and assessment of any and all local and systemic toxicities

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To assess the effect of RXI-109 on scar formation following small surgical incisions

    Visual outcome and histology of scars will be assessed. Digital images of the RXI-109 and placebo-treated incisions/scars will be captured and assessed by a masked, independent, expert panel.

    Measured: 12 weeks

A Phase 1 study testing RXI-109 in people with Cicatrix and Scar Prevention, run by RXi Pharmaceuticals, Corp. at 1 site in United States.

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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To assess the safety and tolerability of intradermal administration of RXI-109 (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 Sep 2014.
