About this trial

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical study comparing SupraSDRM® to standard of care wound dressing, BTM, in the treatment of full-thickness wounds deemed not immediately suitable for definitive grafting will be performed.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Full-thickness traumatic injury, surgical wound, or excised full-thickness burn (e.g., friction, contact, flame, scalding etiology), where immediate grafting is not deemed suitable by the treating surgeon

Wound size ≥ 5cm2 not immediately suitable for graft application

Subject or legally authorized representative is able and willing to sign informed consent

Disqualifiers

Study wound may not include areas of the face, and neck and genitalia.

Wound with metal hardware exposure

Pressure sores

Wounds with residual malignancy

Group B: SOC Skin SubstituteActive comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of days between the application of the dermal substitute to when the dermal substitute is deemed suitable for grafting by the treatment care team.

This endpoint is based on the ability of the dermal substitute to rapidly vascularize and allow for placement of a skin graft.

Time frame
up to 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Clinical incidence of skin substitute infection

Incidence of infections and inflammatory response and scar development

Time frame
up to 5 weeks
2

Days of skin graft application from time of SupraSDRM® or SoC application

The wounds will be assessed for their readiness for grafting by their treating surgeon at minimum weekly

Time frame
up to 5 weeks
3

Percentage graft survival as assessed 7 days after skin graft application

Percent of graft survival will be measured by clinical assessment

Time frame
7 days
4

Number of return trips to the OR

The wounds will be assessed by their care team as part of standard care procedures. Research personal will document any areas of concern or additional surgeries required.

Time frame
up to 1 year
