4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study aims to examine both the genetic profile and the biomarkers implicated in keloid scar formation. Hypothesis: 1. Differences in the genetic profiles of lesional and non-lesional skin contribute a given population's propensity to develop keloids 2. Differences in biomolecules expressed in subjects with and without keloids can help predict keloid occurrence and severity 3. Biomarker analysis will provide useful insights for future targeted therapies for keloid scars
This trial will explore the efficacy and safety of 250ng Juvista per Linear cm, administered by intradermal injection following the excision of ear lobe keloids. Keloids commonly occur after ear piercing and are usually bilateral.One ear lobe will be treated with Juvist and one with placebo.
This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of 500ng Juvista per linear cm of wound margin administered by intradermal injection following the excision of keloid scars on the ear lobe. Ear lobe keloids commonly occur after ear piercing and can be particularly distressing for patients as they are very difficult to conceal and are usually bilateral. As the recurrence rate and growth rate of keloids can vary significantly between individuals, trial subjects will have bilateral ear lobe keloids and will act as their own control. One ear lobe will be treated with Juvista following keloid excision and one with placebo.
This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of 50 and 200ng Juvista per linear cm of wound margin administered by intradermal injection following the excision of keloid scars on the ear lobe. Ear lobe keloids commonly occur after ear piercing and can be particularly distressing for patients as they are very difficult to conceal and are usually bilateral. As the recurrence rate and growth rate of keloids can vary significantly between individuals, trial subjects will have bilateral ear lobe keloids and will act as their own control. One ear lobe will be treated with Juvista following keloid excision and one with placebo.
