Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study the treatment of full thickness burn wounds with cultured autologous keratinocytes in combination with meshed split skin autograft versus meshed split skin graft alone will be compared. It is expected that the application of cultured autologous keratinocytes in combination with a meshed split skin autograft will improve wound healing and scar formation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The standard treatment for extensive burn wounds is transplantation with meshed split skin graft. Disadvantages of this treatment are that healing of large full thickness burn wounds is still accompanied by scar formation. Even standard treatment, transplantation with a (meshed) split skin autograft, does not result in satisfactory functional and cosmetic appearance of the healed wound. Due to limited available donor sites meshes needs to be enlarged. Bigger enlargements of meshes give more scarring and mesh pattern are still visible in scars, probably because wound closure still needs several weeks. Application of cultured autologous keratinocytes may enhance wound closure and improve outcome of healing.

Primary objective: Does the application of cultured autologous keratinocytes on deep burn wounds accelerate wound closure Secondary objectives: Does the application of cultured autologous keratinocytes on deep burn wounds improve scar quality with respect to scar elasticity, colour/pigmentation and/or smoothness after 3 and 12 months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1

wound 1: the placement of keratinocytes onto a collagen/elastin support after the application of the meshed split skin autograft.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cultured autologous keratinocytes

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The experimental wound site will be covered with cultured keratinocytes on a collagen/elastin carrier after the application of a meshed split skin autograft. The control wound site will be covered with a meshed split skin autograft alone.

2

control wound site; application of mesh graft alone

Group Type OTHER

Cultured autologous keratinocytes

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The experimental wound site will be covered with cultured keratinocytes on a collagen/elastin carrier after the application of a meshed split skin autograft. The control wound site will be covered with a meshed split skin autograft alone.
