About this trial

This is a phase II, intra-subject randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, parallel, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of ENERGI-F703EB Cream in subjects who are ≥ 18 years old with epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS), junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB), or dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB). In total, approximately 24 subjects will be enrolled from multiple sites in Taiwan. The study duration per subject is approximately 16 weeks; which includes a 2 to 4-week period between Visit 1 and Visit 2 for screening, an 8-week period from Visit 2 to Visit 7 for treatment, and a 4-week period from Visit 7 to Visit 9 for safety follow-up.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

With either gender aged ≥ 18 years old at the Screening Visit.

Subject has clinical diagnosis and laboratory evidence of EB simplex, junctional EB, or dystrophic EB.

Potential target and target lesions can be located anywhere on the body except on or near the joints (e.g., the elbows and the ankle), face, scalp, groin, palms and soles.

Potential target lesions have been present for ≥ 21 days and < 9 months at the Screening Visit (Visit 1).

Disqualifiers

Have clinical signs of infection as evidenced by ongoing adverse event and/or use of topical antibiotics within 14 days prior to Visit 2.

Use of topical steroidal therapy within 28 days prior to Visit 2.

Use of topical silver products (e.g. silver sulfadiazine cream, colloidal silver) within 14 days prior to Visit 2.

Use of systemic steroidal therapy within 28 days prior to Visit 2 (Except for inhaled, ophthalmic, or for systemic manifestations of EB per investigator's discretion).
