Human evidence can mean a controlled clinical study, an observational study, a safety or exposure report, or evidence from a particular finished formulation. Those are different kinds of information.
Mostly laboratory or animal evidence. The evidence is mainly from cells, tissues, or animals. Any human information is limited or indirect and does not establish a clinical outcome.
Human evidence includes biomarker studies and limited formulation-specific research, but it does not establish an approved therapeutic use or broad benefit from administering synthetic LL-37.

- Preclinical evidence
Limits and source
A central uncertainty is whether antimicrobial or repair findings translate safely to a specific human formulation and condition. Endogenous LL-37 associations should not be interpreted as evidence for administered peptide products.
Open source [1]How to interpret the evidence label
More human evidence does not automatically mean better results for a different product, route, population, or purpose. Limited or missing evidence does not prove that a compound has no biological activity; it means the relevant clinical question has not been established by the published material reviewed here.
