Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 5 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The patient requires autografting for treatment of an acute full-thickness skin defect (e.g., trauma- or surgery-related).
  • The maximum area requiring autografting is 50% Total Body Surface Area (TBSA).
  • Two comparable areas requiring autografting, each at least 160 cm2 (or 320 cm2 contiguous), excluding face and genitalia. When hands or joints are included in the treatment areas, comparability of treatment areas means that each area (RECELL and Control) must include the same contralateral joint and/or hand.
  • The patient is at least 5 years of age.
  • The patient (or parent/guardian) is willing and able to comply with all compulsory study procedures and visit schedule.
  • The patient agrees to abstain from any other treatment (e.g., external fixation) of the study treatment areas for the duration of his/her participation the study (1 year).
Show all 11Show fewer
  • The patient agrees to abstain from enrollment in any other interventional clinical trial for the duration of his/her participation the study (1 year).
  • In the opinion of the investigator, the patient and/or guardian must be able to:

  • Provide voluntary informed written consent.

Who cannot join

  • Not able to understand English or Spanish.
  • The area requiring autografting sustained a burn injury.
  • The treatment area has previously failed to heal subsequent to surgical intervention for closure.
  • The patient is unable to follow the protocol requirements.
  • The patient has a condition that in the investigator's opinion may compromise patient safety or trial objectives.
  • Current use of medications that in the investigator's opinion may compromise patient safety or trial objectives.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • The patient has a known hypersensitivity to trypsin or compound sodium lactate for irrigation (Hartmann's) solution.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Controlled Clinical Study to Investigate the Safety and Effectiveness of the RECELL® System Combined With Meshed Autograft for Reduction of Donor Skin Harvesting in Soft Tissue Reconstruction

A prospective randomized within-subject controlled study to compare the clinical performance of conventional autografting with and without the RECELL system on acute non-burn full-thickness skin defects.

Being tested
Control Intervention (Conventional Autograft), Investigational Intervention (RECELL + more widely meshed autograft)
Medical subject headings
Degloving Injuries, Crush Injuries, Surgical Wound, Skin Neoplasms, Cellulitis, Infections, Fasciitis, Necrotizing, Wounds, Gunshot

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Control Intervention (Conventional Autograft)Procedure or surgery

    Also called meshed split-thickness skin graft

    Meshed split-thickness skin graft, with standardized wound dressings (Telfa™ Clear and Xeroform™)

  • Investigational Intervention (RECELL + more widely meshed autograft)Device

    More widely meshed split-thickness skin graft, Spray-on Skin™ Cells prepared using RECELL, and standardized wound dressings (Telfa™ Clear and Xeroform™)

Study groups in NCT04091672
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
All Participants (within patient control)ExperimentalEach participant will serve as their own Control, receiving both Control and Investigational Interventions randomly allocated to treatment of a portion of a full-thickness skin defect.
Receives: Procedure: Control Intervention (Conventional Autograft); Device: Investigational Intervention (RECELL + more widely meshed autograft)

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Treatment Area Healing

    The incidence of healing is hypothesized to be non-inferior for RECELL-treated areas (Investigational Intervention) as compared to Control areas (Control Intervention). Healing is defined as complete wound closure characterized by 100% skin re-epithelialization without drainage, confirmed at two consecutive study visits at least 2 weeks apart by direct visualization by a Blinded Evaluator.

    Measured: Prior to or at 8 weeks

  2. Donor Skin Area to Treatment Area Expansion Ratio

    The donor skin expansion achieved with treatment using RECELL and widely meshed autograft (Investigational Intervention) is hypothesized to be superior to the donor skin expansion ratio achieved with conventional autograft treatment (Control Intervention). Expansion ratio, computed as the ratio of measured treated area to the measured donor site area, is calculated separately for each Intervention (including any donor skin needed for repeat treatments).

    Measured: Treatment Day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Investigational Intervention (RECELL + more widely meshed autograft) in people with Full-thickness Skin Defects and Degloving Injuries, run by Avita Medical at 18 sites 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 11 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Sep 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Incidence of Treatment Area Healing (time frame: Prior to or at 8 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04091672, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 Jul 2024.
