Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy of a dehydrated human placental tissue product, commercially labeled as AmCoreMatrix Burn ™ versus SOC in the closure of partial thickness burns. Human Cellular and Tissue based Products (HCT/Ps), specifically Dehydrated Human Amnion - Intermediate Layer - Chorion Membrane (dHAICM) offer a multimodal biological approach to burn management. Unlike synthetic dressings or silver-based creams, dHAICM serves as a sophisticated bioactive scaffold. It is a minimally manipulated allograft that provides superior tensile strength and barrier function compared to single-layer membranes. This study aims to document its performance in hospital burn units.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Time to Complete Epithelialization

  Standard of care is to establish a clean, healthy wound bed and optimize the wound environment to have the best chance of healing the wound. This is achieved through wound cleansing, debridement, offloading and moisture balance.

  1-10 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Percentage of Burn Area Change

  1-10 weeks

• Frequency of Full Epithelialization

  1-10 weeks

• Changes in Pain Scores Associated with Target Burns

  1-10 weeks

• Changes in Scarring Quality of Target Burn

  1-10 weeks

• Incidents of Adverse Events

  1-10 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Standard of Care

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Beginning at the screening visit, participants will receive weekly treatment with standard of care (cleaning, debridement, ulcer moisture balance, and offloading) until ulcer closure, or a maximum of 10 weeks, whichever occurs first.

Procedure: Standard of Care (SOC)

AIC and Standard of Care

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants with a thermal burn classified as either superficial partial thickness or deep partial thickness will receive treatment with an Amnion-Intermediate-Chorion (AIC) sheet product, a dehydrated multilayer human placental tissue derived from donated human tissue, and weekly treatment with standard of care (cleaning, debridement, ulcer moisture balance, and offloading) until ulcer closure, or a maximum of 10 weeks, whichever occurs first.

Other: Amnion-Intermediate-Chorion; Procedure: Standard of Care (SOC)

Interventions

Amnion-Intermediate-Chorion OTHER

Dehydrated human placental multilayer allograft derived from donated human tissue. AIC contains amnion and chorion layers as well as basement membrane and trophoblast.
