About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Within Subject Controlled, Dose Regimen Study of SLI-F06 in Healthy Volunteers for Improvement in Scar Appearance
Multi-center, dose-regimen, double-blind study evaluating the safety and efficacy of 4 doses of SLI-F06 compared with vehicle for improvement in scar appearance
Read the detailed description
The is a Phase IIa dose-regimen study of small punch biopsy scars created on the upper and lower back of healthy patients. All excisions will be randomized to treatment with vehicle or 4 doses of SLI-F06 drug product. Patients will be divided into 3 cohorts, with Cohort B receiving the same doses as Cohort A but daily for a total of 5 days. Cohort C will receive up to twice the concentration of Cohort A potentially divided into 2 doses, with both cohorts treated only on treatment Day 0. Scars will be assessed for improvement by both the investigator and the patient at follow-up visits over 6-9 months.
Duration of study-approximately 7-10 months.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
SLI-F06Drug
Skin injection of SLI-F06 at each wound edge after closure of punch biopsy excision.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Cohort A | Experimental | Injection of SLI-F06 on Treatment Day 0, immediately after wound closure:
* Formulation buffer (control)
* 3.75 mg SLI-F06 total dose per wound (1X)
* 7.5 mg SLI-F06 total dose per wound (2X)
* 15 mg SLI-F06 total dose per wound (4X) Receives: Drug: SLI-F06 |
| Cohort B | Experimental | Injection of SLI-F06 on Treatment Day 0, immediately after wound closure and on Days 1, 2, 3, 4:

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in Scarless Labs Observer Scale
Exploratory scale for observer to assess different scar parameters, including Surface Area, Elevation / Depression, Relief, Thickness, Pliability, Vascularity and Pigmentation. The observer then makes an Overall global assessment (scale 0 to -3) of the scar based on the clinical assessment of the scar parameters. All parameters are assessed on a scale of 0-3 (except pigmentation, -3 [hypo] to +3 [hyper]), where 0 correlates to a scar that is indistinguishable from normal skin with greater deviation from 0 correlating with more severe scar. The observer creates a forced rank between scars on the upper and lower back based on best (1) to worst (4) cosmetically.
Measured: Months 1,3,6 and possibly 9
Secondary outcomes (2)
Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) Observer Scale
Established scar scale with observer rating of 1 (normal skin) to 10 (worst scar imaginable) for 6 different parameters (vascularity, pigmentation, thickness, relief, pliability, surface area) and overall opinion rated on the same 1-10 scale. The sum of these scores is added for a total value with a higher number being worse.
Measured: Months 1,3,6 and possibly 9
Scarless Labs Patient Scale
Exploratory scale for subjects to assess different scar parameters, with 0 being no difference in pain or itching of the scar compared with normal skin and -3 being severe or worse. Patients then select a face on a modified Wong-Baker scale for their overall opinion of the scar.
Measured: Months 1,3,6 and possibly 9

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing SLI-F06 in people with Scar and Wound Healing, run by Scarless Laboratories, Inc. at 2 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 5 inclusion and 23 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Elisabeth J Leeflang, MD (213-788-2128, ELeeflang@scarlesslabs.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in Scarless Labs Observer Scale (time frame: Months 1,3,6 and possibly 9). 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 27 Jul 2023.
