Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
GHK-Cu Gel (Copper(II)-peptide complex): topical gel, 0.1% w/w; apply a thin film (approx. 0.5 g) once daily for 14 days.

Study summary
This study will evaluate whether a topical gel containing GHK-Cu (a copper(II)-peptide complex) can safely speed up healing of small, standardized skin wounds in healthy adults compared with a matching vehicle gel.
Participants will receive two small punch-biopsy wounds on the upper arm; each wound will be randomly assigned to receive GHK-Cu gel or vehicle gel under identical dressings. Wounds will be photographed and assessed over 3 weeks, with a follow-up visit to evaluate scar quality.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Time to complete re-epithelialization (days) of each wound, defined as 100% epithelial coverage without drainage, confirmed by blinded clinical assessment and standardized photography. — 21 Days
