Active clinical trials for "Foot Ulcer"

The objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of weekly GrafixPRIME® administration to an Active Comparator in patients with chronic DFUs in a randomized, single-blind study.

The KereFish study is a randomized controlled study to study the efficacy of Kerecis Omega3 Wound on deep diabetic ulcers. This study is probably the first in his field: in this one, the Kerecis Omega3 Wound dies are used on the types of wounds for which they are ultimately intended. This study aims to document the cost benefits of earlier closure of severe diabetic wounds, or the change of the deep and chronic wound into a smaller and shallower ulcer, and to radically alter its prognosis. The study, carried out in France, uses the pre-existing home nursing system with the transmission of photographs to the reference centre. The study was largely designed to ensure transparency of the financial calculations involved.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the most serious complications of diabetes and can lead to amputations in 85% of cases, resulting in physical, psychological, family, social and economic consequences. Psychological interventions can contribute to the improvement of wound healing and, relaxation, in particular, seems to contribute to faster wound healing. More research is needed to assess the effectiveness of different types of intervention on different types of wounds, in particular on chronic wounds such as DFU. This is a Pilot Randomised Controlled Study of a Psychological Intervention that aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a muscle relaxation intervention with guided imagery (experimental group - EG) compared to a neutral guided imagery placebo (active control group - ACG) and a group that does not receive any psychological intervention (passive control group - PCG), to inform a future definitive Randomised Controlled Study (RCT) that tests its effectiveness. This study will also examine, qualitatively, the perspectives of patients with DFU on the relaxation intervention, in order to check its acceptability and applicability; as well as the perspectives of health professionals on this adjuvant therapy, its applicability and integration into the care system of multidisciplinary diabetic foot consultations. Participants have a diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Foot; one or two chronic ulcers active at the time of assessment; and clinical levels of stress or anxiety or depression. Participants will be randomized by the three conditions - EG, ACG and PCG - and assessed on the day of the first consultation or nursing treatment for chronic DFU (T0), two months later (T1), and six months later (T2; follow-up). Two weeks after T1, an interview will be conducted with patients with DFU that benefited from the relaxation sessions and to the health professionals who provided them the DFU care. The results of the present study will contribute for a better understanding of DFU progression, healing, prevention of re-ulceration and future amputations and, consequently, for the improvement of patients' quality of life.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of a nitric oxide releasing solution, delivered as a footbath, to act as an antimicrobial treatment for participants presenting with a diabetic foot ulcer.

This study is for Type I or Type II diabetic subjects with with a diabetic foot ulcer. The study is being done to determine if Nexagon® plus standard of care is more effective than placebo plus standard of care. Standard of care will include debridement of the ulcer, standardized dressings and standardized off-loading using a Removable Cast Walker.

A randomized versus placebo trial designed to evaluate the clinical and humoral effects of 4 months of vildagliptin on healing of chronic ulcers in type 2 diabetes.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the chronic consequences of diabetes which constitute the most important cause of non-traumatic amputation of the inferior limbs. Patients with diabetes are 22 times more likely to have foot ulceration or gangrene than nondiabetics，while foot ulceration precedes 85% of lower-extremity amputation. Three factors combine to promote tissue necrosis in diabetic feet: ischemia, neuropathy and trauma. Among them, ischemia peripheral arterial disease may play the important roles in the development of DFU. Moreover, diffuse vascular disease is the main characteristics, and thus it becomes difficult for treatment by using arterial bypass or balloon angioplasty. Therefore, we hypothesized that continuous arterial thrombolysis may be an effective therapy in diabetic foot. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of continuous intra-femoral artery injection of urokinase by micro-artery-pump in diabetic ulcers.

This is an open-label, active-control, multicentre, parallel group, randomised and dose-finding efficacy and safety study. Compare the efficacy and safety of BioChaperone PDGF-BB applied at 12.5 µg/cm² every two days for up to 20 weeks to becaplermin gel (Regranex® Gel 0.01%) applied daily for up to 20 weeks for the treatment of neuropathic diabetic foot ulcer. Assess the effect of a double dose of BioChaperone PDGF-BB (25 µg/cm²) applied every two days for up to 20 weeks.

Objective: To compare the effect and safety of autologous transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) and mononuclear cells(MNCs) on Diabetic patients with Critical Limb Ischemia and Foot Ulcer. Methods: patients were randomized into the A group and the B group by use of a randomization table. One lower limb in A group or in B group was selected randomly for MSCs or MNCs transplantation as MSCs or MNCs group, the other lower limb in the same patient was selected for placebo（normal saline ,NS）injection as NS group. The whole procedures of this clinical trial were blinded to both patients and investigators.Patients in both groups received the same ordinary treatment. Meanwhile, MSCs and MNCs were transplanted into the impaired lower limbs respectively. Follow-up index include: efficacy (pain,ulcer healing rate, lower limb amputation rate and ,ankle-brachial index,Transcutaneous oxygen pressure,magnetic resonance angiography) and safety (infection of the injection site, immunological rejection, and tumour generation).
