Wound Healing

Pilot study to assess number of patients for main trial

Trial purpose

The objective of the study was to investigate the efficacy of Bepanthen® wound healing ointment compared to placebo in a superficial abrasive wound model. The primary objective was the re-epithelization at Day 5.
The secondary objectives were re-epithelization at Days 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 15, assessment of cosmetic outcome/acceptance at Day 15 (investigator only) and at Day 36 (investigator and subject), and documentation and analysis of safety parameters.

Primary Outcome

  • Wound healing effect (=re-epithelization) at Day 5 of the test product and the placebo
    Wound healing effect (=re-epithelization) was determined on the following basis: No healing 0% Re-epithelization >0 up to 25% Re-epithelization >25 up to 50% Re-epithelization >50 up to 75% Re-epithelization >75 but not complete Complete closure of surface 100%
