RECRUITING

Targeting Collagen VII Antibodies With IV IgG in Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa

Description

The study objective is to see if IV IgG treatment in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) skin in conjunction with VYJUVEK treatment improves wound healing and affects the levels of C7 and HSV-1 antibody levels in serum. Fewer wounds, more rapidly healing wounds, and decreased C7 and HSV-1 antibodies could improve quality of life.
