About this study

Official title: A Double-blind, Randomized, Intra-patient Placebo- Controlled, Multiple Dose Study of PTW-002 Evaluating Safety, Proof of Mechanism, Preliminary Efficacy, and Systemic Exposure in Patients With Dominant or Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DDEB / RDEB) Due to Mutation(s) in Exon 73 of the COL7A1 Gene

A double-blind, randomized, intra-patient placebo- controlled, multiple dose study of PTW-002 evaluating safety, proof of mechanism, preliminary efficacy, and systemic exposure in patients with Dominant Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DDEB) or Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) due to mutation(s) in exon 73 of the COL7A1 gene. Up to two RDEB patients 4 to 17 years of age and up to 6 DDEB patients 4 years of age and older will be enrolled.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: Baseline through Week 32

  2. Assessment of exon 73 exclusion in COL7A1 mRNA, measured by droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR)

    Measured: Week 4

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in uptake of PTW-002 by cells at the basement membrane by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis

    Measured: Week 4

  2. Effect of PTW-002 on wound healing by change in wound size (surface area)

    Measured: Baseline through Week 16

  3. Effect of PTW-002 on skin strength by onset of (re)blistering of a healed wound

    Measured: Baseline through Week 16

  4. Systemic exposure through serum levels of PTW-002 after topical administration to the target wound area (TWA)

    Measured: Baseline through Week 32

  5. Effect of PTW-002 on the presence of collagen type VII protein measured by immunofluorescent staining

    Measured: Week 8

  6. Effect of PTW-002 on the presence of anchoring fibrils measured by electron microscopy

    Measured: Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PTW-002 10 mg/g gel in people with Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa, run by Phoenicis Therapeutics at 3 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 9 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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. 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 combined 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ramsey Johnson (978-726-1478, ramsey@phoenicistx.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: Baseline through Week 32). 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?
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 31 Mar 2023.
