Study protocol for a phase 1, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ascending topical doses of TCP-25 applied to epidermal suction blister wounds in healthy male and female volunteers.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

TCP-25 gel is intended for use in treatment of wound infection and inflammation. Current local therapies for wounds have limited efficacy to prevent infections and there are no wound treatments available today that target the excessive inflammation that often hampers wound healing in both acute and chronic wounds. There is therefore a high medical need for new therapeutic alternatives.

Methods and analysis

A randomised, double-blinded, first-in-human study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and potential systemic exposure of three increasing doses of the TCP-25 gel applied topically on suction blister wounds in healthy adults. The dose-escalation will be divided into three sequential dose groups with eight subjects in each group (24 patients in to
