Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with pathological scars that have not improved for at least six months and who have at least one scar with mVSS ≥9 and can comply with study visits and contraception requirements.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with contracture deforming scars, very large or exclusively sun-exposed scars, active infection, recent anti-scar procedures or medications, prior IL-11/IL-6 family therapy, or positive hepatitis/HIV/syphilis tests would be excluded and unlikely to benefit from this protocol.

What this trial studies
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II trial testing 9MW3811 injections in adults with pathological scars. The study measures clinical efficacy alongside safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity. Eligible participants must be ≥18 years old, have at least one scar with a modified Vancouver Scar Scale (mVSS) score ≥9 and no spontaneous regression in the prior 6 months. Key exclusions include contracture scars causing deformity, very large or exclusively sun-exposed scars, active infection, recent anti-scar treatments, prior IL‑11 or IL‑6 family targeted therapy, and positive viral serology for HBV/HCV/HIV or syphilis.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, 9MW3811 could reduce scar severity and improve the appearance and symptoms of pathological scars.
How similar studies have gone: Targeting IL‑11/related pathways for pathological scarring is relatively novel and there is limited prior clinical evidence specifically supporting this approach for scars.
