Study Summary

This Phase II, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study is designed to determine whether injection of autologous fibroblasts can increase the mobility (decrease the restriction) of burn scars. The study will assess the effects of azficel-T (autologous fibroblasts) in subjects who have a unilateral burn scar that is no deeper than the fascia (i.e., underlying structures including ligament, tendon, muscle, and bone must not contribute to the restriction) and that is either: 1. An axillary scar causing 20-60% restriction of shoulder adduction 2. An anterior elbow scar causing 20-60% restriction of elbow extension 3. A dorsal or palmar lesion of a single finger causing 20-60% restriction of flexion or extension Subjects will each receive 2 injections of azficel-T or placebo administered 14 days (± 7 days) apart (depending on cell availability) and will be followed for efficacy (including range of motion measurements, scar pain and ability to perform activities) to Visit 7 and for safety to Visit 9 at 1 year.

Primary Outcome

Percentage CFB was calculated by subtracting the baseline ROM measurement from the post-treatment ROM measurement, divided by the baseline ROM measurement, and multiplying by 100.
