About this study

Official title: Efficay of Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma Obtained With RgenKit-BCT in the Prevention and the Treatment of Keloid Scars

The aim of this prospective study is to assess the efficacy of autologous Platelet Rich Plasma prepared with RegenKit-BCT in the prevention and the treatment of keloid scars refractory to conventional treatments. Fifteen patients were included and received three PRP injection sessions with a one-month interval. The outcomes were assessed at baseline (before treatment), 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after the last injection session. Safety was assessed by reported adverse event analysis.

Read the detailed description

To evaluate the efficacy and the safety of platelet rich plasma in the treatment of keloid scars. This prospective, comparative study (before-after treatment) included 15 patients with keloid scars refractory to conventional treatment (corticoids, surgery, cryotherapy). The primary outcome was the percentage of patients achieving a complete remission of their keloid scar 2 years after the end of treatment. Secondary outcomes were the Vancouver scar scale and pruritus severity scored at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months post treatment vs baseline.

  • Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma obtained with RegenKit®-BCTDevice

    Also called RegenKit®-BCT

    After complete resection of the keloid scar, the first injection was administered before closure into the lesion resection bed and edges. Three additional injections were administered with a one-month interval.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of patients achieving a complete remission of their keloid scar 2 years after the end of treatment.

    The efficacy of autologous platelet concentrate obtained with RegenKit®-BCT was assessed based on the percentage of patients achieving a complete remission of their keloid scar 2 years after the end of treatment.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Evaluation of the scar using Vancouver scale.

    The efficacy of the treatment was also assessed and determined using the Vancouver scar scale.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. prirutis severity

    The efficacy of the treatment was also assessed on the Pruritus severity

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Pain assessment

    pain assessment during injections were also scored using the VAS.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. patient satisfaction

    Patient satisfaction at the end of follow-up was assessed using a 0-10 VAS

    Measured: 24 months

  5. Adverse events

    Adverse events were reported.

    Measured: 24 months
