Sponsor's own description

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is rare, devastating, and currently incurable genetic blistering disorders characterized by fragility of skin and mucosal membranes. Therapeutic options for EB are limited. Acute and chronic wounds cause pain, itching and infection, altering quality of life and impair wound healing. In absence of a cure, wound care is paramount to alleviate suffering. Anecdotal experience suggest that CBD application alleviates the pain and itching and improves wound healing by controlling the inflammatory process. We propose to undertake a phase II/III study exploring the safety, tolerability and efficacy of topical application of 3% Cannabidiol cream (CBD) on acute and chronic wounds affecting patients with EB. We are doing this trial to determine safety and tolerability of topical CBD cream in a cohort of RDEB patients with chronic wounds (phase II trial), and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CBD cream in EB with acute and chronic wounds in promoting wound healing, decrease blister formation, pain, itching and improve overall quality of life (phase III trial)
