Prademagene zamikeracel, sold under the brand name Zevaskyn, is an autologous cell-based gene therapy for the treatment of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.[1]
Prademagene zamikeracel is a cell sheet-based gene therapy for the treatment of wounds in people with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, a rare and debilitating genetic skin disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene.[3] The therapy utilizes the recipient's own skin cells, genetically engineered to express functional type VII collagen, which are expanded into sheets and surgically applied to chronic wounds.[3]
Prademagene zamikeracel was approved for medical use in the United States in April 2025.[1][2]
