Testing realSKIN as a skin graft for deep burns
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a burn covering less than half of your body that is deep and needs a skin graft
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to use birth control for 3 months after treatment
- You have not had a pig tissue product before, like a heart valve or skin graft
- You are not taking medications that weaken your immune system (like high-dose steroids or cancer drugs)

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
This study tests a new dressing for burns that may need skin grafts. The dressing is made from a gel that helps wounds heal, and the study aims to see if it works better than standard care.
This study looks at people who had severe burns and were treated with a special skin graft made from their own skin cells grown in a lab. It aims to learn more about the long-term effects and outcomes of this treatment.
This trial studies whether a topical medicine (MW-III) is safe and helps heal thermal burns. It is for adults with relatively limited burn size and certain burn depths, while excluding infected or high-risk wounds.
This trial tests a new skin patch made from your own cells to treat large, deep burns. It’s for people who need skin grafts and may help reduce scarring and improve healing.
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.
