Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of the double-blind phase is to compare the efficacy of Oleogel-S10 (treatment arm A) with vehicle (treatment arm B) in the promotion of healing of EB partial thickness wounds. This will be assessed as evidenced by the incidence of the first complete closure of the EB target wound (defined as EB partial thickness wound of 10 cm2 to 50 cm2 in size aged =21 days and <9 months) in patients with inherited EB (subtypes JEB, DEB, or Kindler syndrome) within 45±7 days of treatment. ; Secondary Objective: 1/ Compare the efficacy of IMP with placebo as evidenced by several criteria described in the protocol 2/ Compare the safety of IMP with placebo as evidenced by the incidence, severity, and relatedness of AEs and based on laboratory assessments 3/ Compare the tolerability of IMP with placebo 4/ Assess betulin exposure ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: See section E.5.1; Primary end point(s): Proportion of patients with first complete closure of the EB target wound (defined as EB partial thickness wound of 10 cm2 to 50 cm2 in size aged =21 days and < 9 months) in patients with inherited EB (subtypes JEB, DEB, or Kindler syndrome) within 45±7 days of treatment with Oleogel S10 compared to vehicle based on clinical assessment by the investigator (the wound will be rated as "closed" at first appearance of complete reepithelialisation without drainage confirmed by a second observation after 7 days [+2 days])

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary efficacy endpoints • Time to first complete closure of the EB target wound as evidenced by clinical assessment until EDBP (D90±7) • Proportion of patients with first complete closure of the EB target wound at D14±5, D30±7, D60±7, and D90±7 based on clinical assessment by the investigator • Proportion of patients with first complete closure of the EB target wound at D7±2, D14±5, D30±7, D45±7, D60±7, and D90±7 based on patient assessment • Proportion of patients with first complete closure of the EB target wound at D7±2, D14±5, D30±7, D45±7, D60±7, and D90±7 based on blinded evaluation of photographs • Percentage change from baseline (DBP D0) in EB target wound size as evidenced by blinded evaluation of photographs taken at D7±2, D14±5, D30±7, D45±7, D60±7, and D90±7 • Change from baseline (DBP D0) in total body wound burden as evidenced by clinical assessment using Section I (assessment of the skin except for the anogenital region) of the 'EB Disease Activity and Scarring Index' (EBDASI) at D30±7, D60±7, and D90±7 • Change from baseline (DBP D0) in body surface area percentage (BSAP) of TBSA affected by EB partial thickness wounds as evidenced by clinical assessment based on the 'Lund and Browder' chart at D30±7, D60±7, and D90±7 • The incidence and maximum severity of wound infection between baseline (DBP D0) and D90±7 as evidenced by AEs and/or use of topical and/or systemic antibiotics (related to wound infection) • Change from baseline (DBP D0) in "background" pain using the 'Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability' (FLACC) pain rating scale in patients <4 years of age and the 'Wong Baker FACES® Pain Rating Scale' in patients =4 years of age before wound dressing changes at D7±2, D14±5, D30±7, D45±7, D60±7, and D90±7 • Chang
