Active clinical trials for "Foot Ulcer"

It is hypothesized that application at 4-week or greater intervals of the human placental umbilical cord tissue TTAX01 to the surface of a well debrided, complex diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) will, with concomitant management of infection, will result in a higher rate of wounds showing complete healing within 26 weeks of initiating therapy, compared with standard care alone. This confirmatory Phase 3 study examines a population of diabetic foot ulcer patients having adequate perfusion, with or without neuropathy, and a high suspicion of associated osteomyelitis in a complex, high grade wound.

The study evaluates the efficacy of fluorescence-guided de-colonization in patients with non-infected diabetic foot ulcers. The efficacy will also be compared between those who used artificial dermis and split-thickness skin graft for reconstruction surgery.

This study is evaluating whether a therapeutic ultrasound device can improve blood flow to the leg with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).

This is a pilot study which is intended to collect data to calculate an adequate sample size for a larger registered clinical trial. Eleven subjects were enrolled at The Ohio State University; we intend to enroll 29 more subjects at Indiana University. Due to the small sample size this study will primarily be a feasibility study that will attempt to measure and evaluate differences in the relative theoretical costs of the intervention of topical oxygen therapy on this population and subsequently compare outcomes in areas such as overall health improvements and cost effectiveness.

This is a phase 2 double-blind clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and Safety of ALLO-ASC-SHEET in subjects with Diabetic Foot Ulcers, compared to placebo therapy.

One in four Veterans is affected by diabetes and will develop a diabetic foot ulcer. Diabetic ulcers are very challenging to manage and are the most common cause of leg amputation. Many advanced treatments are expensive and difficult to use in the clinic or at home. Those newer therapies have shown little success in healing diabetic foot wounds. The investigators' laboratory and animal work has suggested that a safe medication, currently used as an eye drop for treatment of glaucoma, can heal these ulcers. The investigators are proposing to test this drop (timolol) directly on the surface of the foot ulcer to see if can improve healing faster than the current standard of care. To do this, the investigators propose a "randomized controlled trial" with two groups of patients with diabetic foot ulcers: one will receive standard of care with timolol while the other will receive standard of care with a gel (hydrogel, as placebo medicine).

The MARSYAS II study which will be conducted in patients with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) consists of a Lead-In Phase for safety assessment of multiple doses of the biologic investigational medicinal product (IMP) APO-2 and of a Main Phase (Phase II Study) to assess the efficacy and safety of the IMP. The phase II study will be a randomized study at multiple clinical centers and it will be double-blind meaning that neither the investigator nor the treated patient know if the IMP or a placebo is applied; the study will investigate the safety and clinical efficacy of multiple dose administrations at three dose levels of APO-2 (low dose, medium dose or high dose) compared with placebo.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential dose escalation study in diabetic subjects with a diabetic lower leg or foot ulcer. All subjects will receive standard-of-care ulcer treatment from screening through the last study visit.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is currently an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Global estimates indicate that 382 million people live with diabetes (8.3%), and that number could reach 592 million in 2035. The diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) present as sore wounds with disintegration of the skin. The DFU affect 15% of diabetic patients. Several studies have been conducted aiming to find therapeutic strategies for the healing of DFU, among the reported therapeutic methods the Low-level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has been highlighted. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of different doses of LLLT in the treatment of DFU. Methods: This study is characterized as a double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT), consisting of four groups, the control group will have only dressing and placebo LLLT application and the other three groups will have dressing and real LLLT GaAs 904 nm application. Expected outcomes: to elucidate the effects of different doses of LLLT GaAs 904 nm on the treatment of DFU, beyond to identify the most effective dose.

Phase III clinical trial, multicenter, controlled, randomized, double-blind, with two parallel groups (experimental and control). Both study groups will receive standard therapy currently available in treatment centers for diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). Associate with the standard therapy, it will be given the recombinant human Epidermal Growth Factor (rhEGF) to experimental group and in the control group, it will be given a formulation without pharmacological effect (placebo) in order to masking and control of intralesional application. Participants with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) diagnosed with DFU for at least 4 weeks, treated in referral centers participating in the study, agreeing to participate after reading, understanding and signing of Informed Consent (IC); meet all the inclusion criteria; and presenting no exclusion criteria. The Informed Consent (IC) should be applied to potential participants, as recommended by the regulations and ethical consensus before beginning any procedure related to the clinical trial. In the early weeks, participants will be evaluated at the research centers by the study team (doctors and / or staff). The number of visits will be determined by the investigator, thus ensuring appropriate assistance to participants, and avoiding any complications with DFU. By meeting the eligibility requirements (inclusion and exclusion criteria), the participant will undergo a thorough evaluation of the DFU before the start of treatment. This assessment is precisely to classify the condition of the ulcer before treatment and provide relevant information for statistical analysis of the protocol. If eligible, the participant will be randomly set to treatment arm (placebo or rhEGF) and the administration of investigational product associated with predefined standardized outpatient therapy will be initiated. This administration occurs three times per week until the DFU is scarred, not exceeding 8 weeks of treatment (T.01 to T.08) .The study will be randomized and balanced according to the type and size of the DFU. This balancing is necessary to ensure that both treatment groups are homogeneous for participants under different conditions. All participants will be applied established standard therapy for the treatment of DFU. The objective is to provide regular care for healing and reduce possible bias in the efficacy analysis and product safety. After the treatment period (last dose of the experimental drug) the participant will start the follow-up period, with 16 weeks duration. The participant shall be subjected to weekly visits for ongoing assessment of DFU, however, according to the investigator, may result in unscheduled visits to assess local or general clinical events. After the monitoring period, the participant will be observed for 24 additional weeks, visits every 4 weeks (E.01 E.24 a) having beginning one week after the last visit of follow-up. This period is intended to assess possible events related to the efficacy and safety that can happen in the period, mainly for analysis of secondary endpoints.
