简要总结
This study was undertaken to investigate safety and scar-improvement activity of different applications of Juvista (avotermin), administered to surgical incisions made to the skin of a healthy population of male volunteers aged 18-45 years. The study addressed two issues: whether Juvista (avotermin) administered at 200ng/100μl/linear cm wound margin is more effective than 50ng/100μl/linear cm for scar improvement and, secondly, whether dosing once only (before wounding) or twice (before and after wounding) is optimal for scar improvement.

入选标准
- •Clinically healthy, male subjects aged 18 to 45 years (inclusive)
- •Body weight between 40kg and 150kg or a body mass index within the range 15-55kg/m2, calculated using Quetelet's index
排除标准
- •Subjects with history or evidence of hypertrophic or keloid scarring, or with tattoos or previous scars in the area to be biopsied.
- •Subjects with tattoos or previous scars within 3cm of the area to be incised during the trial.
- •Afro-Caribbean volunteers, because of their increased susceptibility to hypertrophic and keloid scarring.
- •Subjects who, on direct questioning and physical examination, have evidence of any past or present clinically significant disease.
- •Subjects with a chronic or currently active skin disorder, which would adversely affect the healing of the acute wounds or involved the areas to be examined in this trial.
- •Subjects with a history of clinically significant allergies.
- •Subjects with any clinically significant abnormality following review of pre-trial laboratory data and physical examination.
- •Subjects taking, or who had taken, certain prescribed drugs in the 4 weeks before to Day 0 and, in particular, topical or systemic steroids, anti-inflammatory, anti-coagulant, anti-proliferative drugs, and antibiotics.
- •Subjects who have taken part in a clinical trial within 3 months before admission to this trial, or who are currently participating in a clinical trial, whether an investigational drug was involved or not.
- •Subjects with any clinical evidence of severe ongoing, or prolonged, depression or mental illness.
- •Subjects smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day.
- •Subjects drinking more than 28 units of alcohol per week (1 unit = ½ pint of beer [285ml], 25ml of spirits, or 1 glass of wine).
- •Subjects showing evidence of drug abuse.
- •Subjects known to have, or to have had, serum hepatitis or who were carriers of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) or hepatitis C antibody.
