Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Clinical diagnosis of RDEB
2. Age 6 years and older;
3. Willing and able to give consent/assent; if under the age of 18 years, guardian(s) is/are willing and able to give consent;
4. Positive expression of NC1+ amino-terminal fragment of C7 in the skin;
5. Two confirmed RDEB C7 mutations with recessive inheritance patterns (or confirmation that parents don't have any evidence of dominant disease);
6. Able to undergo adequate anesthesia during EB-101 treatment;
7. All women of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test and use a reliable birth control method throughout the duration of the study and for 24 Weeks post treatment;
8. On stable pain medication regimen for at least 30 days prior to Screening;
9. Must have at least one wound site that meets all of the following criteria:
1. An area ≥20 cm2
2. Present for ≥6 months
3. Stage 2 wound defined as an open skin wound with partial thickness loss of dermis that has not extended through the dermis into subcutaneous tissue
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Medical instability limiting ability to travel to the study site or undergo EB-101 treatment;
2. The presence of medical illness expected to complicate participation and/or compromise the safety of this technique, such as active infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C;
3. Evidence or history of immune response to C7 by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay;
4. Evidence of systemic infection;
5. Current evidence or a history of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the area that will undergo EB-101 application;
6. Active drug or alcohol addiction;
7. Hypersensitivity to vancomycin or amikacin;
8. Receipt of chemical or biological investigational therapy for the specific treatment of RDEB in the 3 months prior to EB-101 application;
9. Positive pregnancy test or breast-feeding;
10. Inability to properly follow protocol assessments and protect keratinocyte sheet sites as determined by the Principal Investigator;
11. Grade 3 clinical event or laboratory abnormality at Day 0. Abnormalities such as esophageal strictures, anemia, low albumin, and pain/itch are expected in RDEB patients, and these abnormalities will not exclude a patient;
12. Unwillingness or inability to provide 4-biopsies or inability to manufacture patient's keratinocytes for use in EB-101 application.
