Recruiting studies
- NCT04589442RecruitingPhase 4
Graft treatment for deep burns using processed donor skin
This trial tests whether a “microsurfaced” donor-skin graft can heal deep burn wounds (partial- or full-thickness burns) after recent injury. It may help improve healing when the burn area is large enough and not infected.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 21 years+ - NCT06223269RecruitingPhase 3
Testing realSKIN as a skin graft for deep burns
This study tests a new pig-skin graft called realSKIN to see if it can close deep burn wounds as well as a patient's own skin graft. It may offer an alternative for people with severe burns who need surgery.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06913270Recruiting
Virtual reality for pain during burn dressing changes
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) during dressing changes can help reduce pain and anxiety for adults with burn injuries. If you have moderate to severe pain during dressing changes, this approach might offer extra comfort without extra medication.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07530003RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cells and collagen for severe burn wound healing
This trial tests a treatment combining special healing cells (HUMSCs) and collagen protein applied directly to severe third-degree burns. It aims to help these deep wounds heal faster and with better outcomes.
Xinxiang, HenanAges 18–65 - NCT07617961Recruiting
THERAVEX Spray for Wound and Ulcer Healing
This trial tests a topical spray treatment designed to help heal various types of skin wounds, including burns, pressure sores, and diabetic ulcers. The spray may help your wound heal faster and more effectively.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06992895Recruiting
Hologram for pain and fear during burn dressing changes in children
This trial tests whether watching a hologram during burn dressing changes can reduce pain, anxiety, and fear in children. It may help make the experience less stressful for kids aged 3 to 12 with small, second-degree burns.
Erzurum, YakutiyeAges 3–12 - NCT07580755Recruiting
Stem cells to help burn wounds heal after skin grafting
This trial tests whether mesenchymal stem cells (a type of healing cell) can help burn wounds recover better when combined with skin grafting. The goal is to improve how well the grafted skin takes and heals.
Xinxiang, HenanAges 18–65 - NCT07025408RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new burn treatment for second-degree burns
This trial tests a new medicine called KJ101 for healing deep second-degree burns. It may help close the wound faster and reduce scarring.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06807021RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of a gel to reduce scarring after burn surgery
This trial tests a gel called FS2 applied after skin graft surgery for burns. It aims to see if the gel can help scars heal better and look less noticeable.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 12–65 - NCT06596434RecruitingPhase 2
Testing 4-aminopyridine cream for faster burn healing
This study tests a medicine called 4-aminopyridine (also used for nerve conditions) to see if it helps second-degree burns heal faster. If you have a fresh burn, you might be able to join.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07337616Recruiting
Wound dressing study for burn patients
This study tests a new wound dressing called Field Shield for people with burn injuries. It compares the new dressing to standard care. The goal is to see if it helps burns heal better.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT06506565RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose ketamine for burn wound pain
This trial tests a low-dose ketamine infusion during burn wound dressing changes to see if it reduces pain. It might help people who are hospitalized with a thermal burn injury.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT02350205RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a lab-made skin substitute for severe burn wounds
This early-stage trial tests a self-assembled, lab-made skin substitute placed on severe burn wounds to help heal them when there aren’t enough donor sites for standard skin grafts. It may help patients with very large burns, but it has specific safety and eligibility limits.
Calgary, AlbertaAges Any age - NCT06503406Recruiting
Testing a new dressing for deep wounds to speed healing
This trial tests a special wound dressing (SupraSDRM®) to help deep, full-thickness wounds heal faster and reduce the time needed before a skin graft can be placed. It may be an option for people with a large, deep wound from an injury, surgery, or burn that isn't ready for a graft yet.
Fort Sam Houston, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05275335Recruiting
Study how germs in burn wounds are best identified
This study compares two ways of finding germs (microbes) in burn wounds: traditional tissue swabs/cultures versus a newer DNA-based method. It may help improve how clinicians understand burn infections and tailor care.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT07326657Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Fish skin graft for deep partial-thickness burns
This trial tests if a fish skin graft can help heal deep burns and reduce the need for a skin graft from your own body. It compares the fish skin graft to standard care for burns on the torso or arms and legs.
Maywood, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT01166893Recruiting
Imaging tests to measure burn healing and severity
This trial uses special imaging methods, including a laser-based technique, to judge how severe a burn wound is and how likely it is to heal. The goal is to see whether these scans can help doctors track burn healing more accurately.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 1 minute+ - NCT06328010Enrolling by invitation
Real-world data registry for wound care treatments
This study collects information on various wound types and how they respond to standard care. It aims to learn what works best for wounds that haven't healed after 4 weeks of treatment.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05217160RecruitingPhase 4
KeraStat gel with morphine for non-healing painful open wounds
This study tests whether KeraStat® gel that delivers morphine through the skin can reduce pain and help manage non-healing ulcers or open wounds. You may be eligible if your wound fits specific size and depth limits and you can track pain every day.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06987981Recruiting
Chitosan vs. Silver Dressings for Children's Burns
This study compares two types of wound dressings—one made from chitosan (a natural substance) and one with silver—to see how well they help heal children's burns and scars. If your child has a recent, mild-to-moderate burn that doesn't need surgery, this trial may be an option to help healing.
Novo MestoAges 6 months–17 years - NCT07312513Recruiting
Comparing two wound cleaning tools
This trial tests if a new wound cleaning tool works as well as an existing one for removing dead tissue from wounds. It aims to help wounds heal better.
LodzAges 18 years+ - NCT06801626RecruitingPhase 3
New ways to reduce burn scar itch
This study tests new ways to reduce itching from burn scars. If you have a burn scar that itches and are between 18 and 79, you may be able to join and try a treatment that could help relieve the itch.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT05223998Enrolling by invitation
Treating wounds with tiny skin graft columns
This trial studies a technique where doctors place very small “columns” of your own skin to help cover open wounds. It may help people who need tissue coverage, as long as the wound location and wound condition fit the study rules.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05424354RecruitingPhase 4
Test powder dressing vs usual care for recent burn wounds
This study compares a transforming powder dressing to the standard dressing for partial-thickness burn wounds. It aims to see whether the powder dressing helps wounds heal better and safely when used soon after the burn.
