Investigation of the Safety, Dosing Frequency and Anti-Scarring Potential of Two Concentrations of Intradermal Avotermin (Juvista)

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the dosing frequency, wound healing (re-epithelialisation) and anti-scarring effects of one, three and five applications of two concentrations of intradermal RN1001 in healthy male subjects.

Conditions

• Cicatrix
• Wound Healing
• Re-epithelialization

Interventions

DRUG

Avotermin

5 ng or 50 ng/100 ul avotermin applied by intradermal injection to one of two 3 mm punch biopsies on each arm just prior to surgery (on day 0) and again on day 5 just prior to excision of the wound with a 5 mm surgical ellipse

DRUG

Avotermin

5 ng or 50 ng/100 ul avotermin applied by intradermal injection to one of two 3 mm punch biopsies on each arm just prior to surgery (on day 0) and again on days 1 and 2. Dosing is repeated on day 5 (just prior to excision of the wound with a 5 mm surgical ellipse), 6 and 7.
