Isolagen Modifies Ongoing Clinical Program For Acne Scars
FDA has provided follow-up on the Phase III program investigating Isolagen's Therapy for the treatment of moderate to severe acne scars. The FDA reiterated that there are no safety issues that would prevent the initiation of the proposed studies. However, the FDA asked the Company to further clarify certain protocol issues and raised questions related to the acne scar Evaluator Assessment Scale and Photo Guide.

The technique would use lasers that bypass the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen growth underneath. .
