- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To assess the safety and tolerability of a single course of intradermal injections of ELAPR when administered to healthy subjects. This will be assessed by clinical observation of the implant sites throughout the duration of the study; haematology and blood biochemistry analysis; and, histopathology and immunohistochemistry of a tissue biopsy sample from each implant site to evaluate implant persistance and identify any cellular responses to the implant material.[- Clinical evaluation of the implant sites will occur for 60 minutes after implantation and on Days 4, 8, 15, 29 and 43.<br>- Blood haematology and biochemical analysis will occur during screening and at Day 1, 4 and 29.<br>- Biopsies for histopathology will be taken on Day 8, 15 and 29 (four participants each).]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine implant persistence by histopathology and clinical observation[- Clinical evaluation of the implant sites will occur for 60 minutes after implantation and on Days 4, 8, 15, 29 and 43.<br>- Biopsies for histopathology will be taken on Day 8, 15 and 29 (four participants each).]
