Short Term Observational Study in DEB Patients

March 15, 2021 updated by: Shire

A Prospective Short-term Study to Evaluate Methodologies for the Assessment of Disease Extent, Impact, and Wound Evolution in Patients With Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB)

The purpose of this study is to better understand disease extent and to identify appropriate methodologies to evaluate (dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa) DEB in a quantitative and qualitative manner.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • ADULT
  • OLDER_ADULT
  • CHILD

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with DEB.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Written informed consent is provided. Patients 18 years of age and older, and parent(s)/legal guardian(s) of patients younger than 18 years of age, must provide written informed consent prior to participating in the study; additionally, informed assent will be obtained from patients younger than 18 years of age as specified by local requirements.
  2. Patient must have a documented diagnosis of DEB based on genetic analysis showing a mutation in COL7A1 or, in the opinion of the investigator, a confirmed diagnosis of DEB based on histologic criteria (antigen mapping or electron microscopy).
  3. Patient must have at least 5 wounds that are suitable for imaging, in the opinion of the investigator, at the time of enrollment.
  4. Patient is willing and able to undergo the protocol-specified procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient has used or is currently using experimental treatment for DEB including, but not limited to, bone marrow transplantation, systemic immune suppression, or experimental procedures that involve live cells, with potential for systemic spread such as gene transfer, stem cell infusions, or other cell type injections such that, in the opinion of the investigator, inclusion poses an unacceptable risk to the patient or interpretation of these study data.
  2. Patient has squamous cell carcinoma with evidence of locally invasive disease or distant metastases.
  3. Patient is pregnant.

Design Details

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Wound Surface Area (WSA) of patient- and investigator-selected wounds
Time Frame: Over 4 weeks
Over 4 weeks
Wound Surface Area (WSA) as a percentage of Body Surface Area (BSA) in patients with DEB
Time Frame: Over 4 weeks
Over 4 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The number, severity and relationship to study procedures of adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs)
Time Frame: Over 4 weeks
Over 4 weeks

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
June 24, 2014

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
February 23, 2015

Study Completion (ACTUAL)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
