Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
A Phase II randomized trial will be initiated to evaluate closure of the perforated tympanic membrane as the primary measureable outcome. The goal is to determine the safety and efficacy of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2) in the closure of chronic tympanic membrane perforations (TMP). If FGF-2 is topically applied for the treatment of chronic TMP in humans, it is hypothesized it will be safe, tolerable and effective for use as treatment for tympanic membrane perforation. A total of 60 subjects will be recruited.
