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.

* Evidence of scar infection or active systemic infection requiring treatment
* Use of anti-scar medications (e.g., corticosteroids, immunosuppressants) or anti-scar procedures (surgery, laser, radiation, etc.) within 4 weeks prior to first dose
* Prior treatment with IL-11 cytokine or IL-6 family targeted therapy (e.g., tocilizumab) within specified washout periods
* Participation in another interventional study within 28 days
* Positive serology for HBV, HCV, HIV, or syphilis with clinical significance
* History of severe allergy or known hypersensitivity to study drug components
* Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities (eGFR \<90 mL/min/1.73m², PLT \<100×10⁹/L, QTc \>450/470 ms, bilirubin \>1.5×ULN, AST/ALT \>1.5×ULN)
