Full Thickness Thermal Burn
Conditions
Brief summary
Autografting is a surgical procedure to transplant healthy skin (donor skin) from another part of the participant's own body (donor site) to the burned part. Autografting is the usual treatment for full-thickness (FT) burns. It works to close the wound, but can cause other problems: * Donor sites are painful, can become infected or scarred, or can even become FT wounds themselves * Treatment problems can require more grafting * Additional surgery increases risk of medical problems caused by the treatment Stratatech is trying to find a safe and effective treatment option for severe burns that uses less donor skin. All participants in this study received meshed autograft on one part of their burn (AG Tx). They received more widely meshed than AG Tx site autograft with a StrataGraft covering (SOMA Tx) on a different part of their burn.
Interventions
Control treatment that is meshed autograft alone applied to a burn area.
Meshed autograft applied to the burn area and covered with StrataGraft.

Recruitment details
Participants took part in the study at 5 investigative sites in the United States from 10 October 2021 to 07 June 2024.
Pre-assignment details
The study was planned to be conducted in 2 cohorts. Only Cohort 1 data is reported, as the study was terminated before any participant was enrolled in Cohort 2. Total 13 participants were randomized in Cohort 1, each participant served as their own control. All participants had 2 treatment sites that were randomized to receive autograft treatment (AG Tx) at 1 treatment site, and StrataGraft overlay of meshed autograft (SOMA Tx) on the 2nd treatment site.

| Cohort 1 Group 1 Participants received AG Tx consisting of autograft alone (mesh ratio m, per clinical judgment) at 1 treatment site compared to SOMA Tx on other treatment site in which m+1:1 meshed autograft was overlaid with StrataGraft, applied to wounds of 100 to 400 cm\^2 in area on Day 1. | 7 |
| Cohort 1 Group 2 Participants received AG Tx consisting of autograft alone (mesh ratio m, per clinical judgment) at treatment site compared to SOMA Tx on other treatment site in which m+2:1 meshed autograft was overlaid with StrataGraft, applied to wounds of 100 to 400 cm\^2 in area on Day 1. | 6 |

Number of Participants With Durable Wound Closure of Study Treatment Sites Without Additional Autografting at Month 12
Durable wound closure is defined as persistence of closure, maintained for at least 3 months after the initial observation of closure.
