Targeting Collagen VII Antibodies With IV IgG in Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa

The study objective is to see if IV IgG treatment in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) skin in conjunction with VYJUVEK treatment improves wound healing and affects the levels of C7 and HSV-1 antibody levels in serum. Fewer wounds, more rapidly healing wounds, and decreased C7 and HSV-1 antibodies could improve quality of life.

Thera-Clean® Microbubbles System in Patients With Skin Diseases

Thera-Clean® Microbubble has proved to improve skin conditions in animals, however little research has been done regarding human subjects. Microbubble technology is a chemical-free therapeutic aimed at clearing foreign and organic matter from hair follicles, eliminating odors, and reducing itch. This hydrotherapy is said to aid in the healing process of inflamed and distressed tissue, relieve pain, and serve to remove contaminated tissue. This study will evaluate the change in skin conditions from the use of Thera-Clean® Microbubble for cleansing and debriding wounds from selected subjects focused on patients with inflammatory skin disease (epidermolysis bullosa, ichthyosis, atopic dermatitis and/or psoriasis). Proper wound care to prevent infection is vitally important for these patients and the options of therapeutics are limited. This study will evaluate the change in skin conditions from the use of Thera-Clean® Microbubble for cleansing and debriding lesional skin.

A Study to Learn About the Safety and Efficacy of the Drug Oleogel-S10 in Japanese Patients With Epidermolysis Bullosa

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Oleogel-S10 gel works to treat skin wounds from two types of inherited epidermolysis bullosa (EB): junctional EB (JEB) or dystrophic EB (DEB) in the Japanese population. Children and adults may participate. The trial also looks at the safety of Oleogel-S10 gel. The main questions it will answer are: * Does Oleogel-S10 gel close wounds from JEB or DEB within 45 days or reduce the size of the wounds? * Are there any medical problems when using Oleogel-S10 gel? * How much of the drug ends up in your blood? The study has 2 parts. In Part 1, participants will: * Apply Oleogel-S10 gel to the EB wound dressings at least once every 4 days for 45 days. * Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests. If participants complete Part 1, they may participate in Part 2 if they choose to. In Part 2, participants will continue to receive Oleogel-S10 gel until the product is available to buy in Japan or until the trial is stopped by the company.

Allogeneic ABCB5-positive Dermal Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Treatment of Epidermolysis Bullosa (Phase III)

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of allo-APZ2-OTS administered intravenously to subjects with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) compared to placebo. An additional baseline-controlled open-label arm will be included to investigate the safety and efficacy of allo-APZ2-OTS administered intravenously to subjects with JEB and to RDEB subjects \< 1 year.

Allogeneic ABCB5-positive Dermal Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Treatment of Epidermolysis Bullosa (Phase III, Cross-over)

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of allo-APZ2-OTS administered intravenously to subjects with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) compared to placebo. An additional baseline-controlled open-label arm will be included to investigate the safety and efficacy of allo-APZ2-OTS administered intravenously to subjects with JEB and to RDEB subjects \< 1 year.

A Phase 3b Study for the Treatment of Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) in New and Previously EB-101 Treated Patients

To evaluate and further characterize the safety of EB-101 (LZRSE-Col7A1 gene-corrected keratinocyte sheets with type VII collagen \[C7\] expression) for the treatment of large, chronic DEB wounds in new and previously EB-101 treated patients 12 months and older.

Reproductive Options in Inherited Skin Diseases

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the indications for prenatal diagnostics and preimplantation genetic testing for patients/couples affected by an inherited skin disease, and evaluate the clinical outcomes of these reproductive options. By providing a complete overview, the investigators aim to improve reproductive counselling for these patients/couples with a desire to have children. To achieve this, the investigators aim to retrospectively collect data from a cohort of patiens/couples affected by an inherited skin disease on a national level (in the Netherlands) and also an international level from various countries in Europe.

Qualitative Study in Patients With Genodermatoses and Healthcare Professionals on Reproductive Counselling

The goal of this observational study is to understand the perspectives and needs of patients with genodermatoses and their partners who wish to have children, regarding their decision-making process and their consideration of reproductive options. Additionally, the investigators aim to investigate the level of knowledge and perspectives of healthcare professionals (such as clinical geneticists, dermatologists and other clinicians involved), and want to explore to what extent patients and their partners are well informed about these reproductive options. To achieve this, the investigators will conduct individual semi-structured qualitative interviews with participants affected by genodermatoses (and their partners) and with healthcare professionals.
