Experimental: Oleogel-S10
The eligible wound (half) was topically treated with Oleogel-S10 and covered with a non-adhesive wound dressing (Mepilex®) on Day 0. Wound dressings were changed about every 24 to 48 hours until discharge from hospital or until the end of treatment at Day 14 in 'recent wounds' or Day 28 in 'chronic wounds'.
|
Drug: Oleogel-S10
1 cm or 125 µL or 115 mg Oleogel-S10 per cm2 wound area (corresponds to thickness of approximately 1 mm or 0.04 inch) every 24 to 48 hours until discharge from hospital or until the end of treatment at Day 14 in 'recent wounds' or Day 28 in 'chronic wounds'.
Other Name: Sericare® Device: Mepilex® soft silicone faced polyurethane foam dressing Mepilex® soft silicone faced polyurethane foam dressing was changed about every 24 to 48 hours until discharge from hospital or until the end of treatment at Day 14 in 'recent wounds' or Day 28 in 'chronic wounds'.
Other Name: Cutaneous patch |
Non-adhesive wound dressing
Mepilex® soft silicone faced polyurethane foam dressing was used as non-active comparator. The eligible wound (half) was covered with Mepilex® as control on Day 0. Wound dressings were changed about every 24 to 48 hours until discharge from hospital or until the end of treatment at Day 14 in 'recent wounds' or Day 28 in 'chronic wounds'.

- Intra-individual Difference in Reepithelialization of Wound (Halves) at Day 14 in 'Recent Wounds' or Day 28 in 'Chronic Wounds' [ Time Frame: 14 days for 'recent wounds', 28 days for 'chronic wounds' ]The primary end point was the progress of reepithelialization from baseline to either Day 14 ('recent wounds') or Day 28 ('chronic wounds') of the EB wound (half) treated with Oleogel-S10 and non-adhesive wound dressing (Mepilex®) intra-individually compared to the other wound (half) covered with non-adhesive wound dressing only (intra-individual comparison). Two independent experts were blind to treatment and assessed efficacy based on chronological series of cropped and coded photographs by wound (half) that were taken before start of treatment, during wound dressing changes and at the end of treatment on Day 14/Day 28. They evaluated each series and decided whether 1 wound (half) reepithelialized faster than the other ('winner'), or whether there was no difference in reepithelialization.
- Percentage of Wound Epithelialization at Day 7±1 [ Time Frame: Day 7±1 ]The secondary endpoint was the intra-individual difference in median percentage of wound epithelialization at Day 7±1. Sizes of wound areas were measured using a digital wound evaluation program from the EB Center at the Department of Dermatology, University Medical Center Freiburg.
- Percentage of Wound Epithelialization at Day 14±1 [ Time Frame: Day 14±1 ]The secondary endpoint was the intra-individual difference in median percentage of wound epithelialization at Day 14±1. Sizes of wound areas were measured using a digital wound evaluation program from the EB Center at the Department of Dermatology, University Medical Center Freiburg.

Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients aged 1-95 years
- Patient and/or his/her legal representative was informed, read and understood the patient information/informed consent form and gave written informed consent
- Patients with inherited EB with at least 1 skin lesion between 10 cm2 and 200 cm2 (alternatively 2 comparable lesions of at least 5 cm2 each)
-
Patient and/or his/her legal representative was able and willing to follow study procedures and instructions including the following:

- Regular visits during the treatment period (14 days in 'recent wounds' to 28 days in 'chronic wounds')
- Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential within 7 days before start of treatment
- Women of childbearing potential agreed to use an effective method of contraception (Pearl Index < 1, e.g. hormonal contraception including the combined oral contraceptive pill, the transdermal patch, and the contraceptive vaginal ring, intrauterine devices or sterilization) during treatment and for at least 6 months thereafter
- Men of procreative capacity agreed to use an effective method of contraception during treatment and for at least 6 months thereafter
Exclusion Criteria:

- Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus or diabetic ulcers
- Diseases or conditions that could, in the opinion of the investigator, interfere with the assessment of safety, tolerance or efficacy
- Skin disorders adversely affecting wound healing or involving the areas eligible for study treatment
- Hypersensitivity to the trial medication or surgical dressings to be used
- Multiple allergic disorders
