MediWound (NASDAQ: MDWD) published a post hoc analysis in Wounds journal comparing their EscharEx® treatment to SANTYL® for venous leg ulcers (VLUs). The analysis, based on Phase II ChronEx trial data, demonstrated superior clinical performance of EscharEx over SANTYL, the only FDA-cleared enzymatic debridement agent currently available.
Key findings showed that 63% of EscharEx patients achieved complete debridement at 2 weeks versus 0% in the SANTYL group. The median time to debridement was 9 days for EscharEx, while SANTYL did not achieve this milestone. Wound Bed Preparation was achieved by 50% of EscharEx patients in 2 weeks compared to 0% with SANTYL. Notably, wound closure rates were 33% for EscharEx versus 25% for SANTYL, with significantly faster mean time to closure (48 days vs. 76 days). Both treatments showed similar safety profiles, though deep wound infection rates were lower in the EscharEx group (11% vs. 38%).

MediWound (Nasdaq: MDWD) announced the publication of its Phase III Children Innovative Debridement Study (CIDS) in Burns, the peer-reviewed Journal of the International Society for Burn Injuries. The study evaluated NexoBrid® compared to standard of care in pediatric patients with deep thermal burns.
The publication, titled "Open-Label RCT of the Efficacy and Safety of NexoBrid Compared to SOC in Children with Burns," presents findings that supported NexoBrid's label expansion for pediatric patients in the E.U. (2023) and U.S. (2024). The results confirm NexoBrid's superiority as a rapid, effective, and non-surgical alternative for eschar removal in pediatric burn patients.
Professor Jose Ramón Martínez-Méndez noted that pediatric burn patients account for approximately 30% of all burn cases and present unique challenges. NexoBrid provides a non-surgical solution that effectively removes eschar while preserving healthy tissue, addressing the need to protect viable dermis and improve outcomes.
