Active clinical trials for "Foot Ulcer"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether N-acetylcysteine is effective in the treatment or prevention of the foot ulcers in diabetic patients.

This study is a double-blind, one center, two-arm study with a two (2) week Run-In, evaluating the efficacy of a once-daily administration of NanoDOX™ Hydrogel topically applied to diabetic ulcers in concert with professionally administered Standard of Care (SOC) procedures as described by Standard Operating Procedure(s) of the Department of Veterans Administration Hospitals. During the run-in period patients with infected wounds will receive oral antibiotic and not be included in the topical portion of the study until the infection is shown by wound fluid analysis to be resolved. Following a two (2) week Run-In of all patients to receive SOC treatment for diabetic ulcers, patients would have either the investigational material or the placebo hydrogel applied as a part of their wound care. Each patient would receive 1.5 gm packets of either the test article or the placebo hydrogel for a once-daily home treatment accompanied by a dressing change.

The primary objective of this 6 month open-label extension trial is to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of dalteparin in treatment of chronic neuroischaemic foot ulcers in diabetic patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and peripheral neuropathy.

Diabetic foot ulcers are a challenge to health care professionals because there are only few effective topical therapeutic interventions. Growth factor treatment has shown to be beneficial for healing of diabetic foot ulcers in conjunction with extensive surgical debridement. Autologues platelet releasate which contains platelet derived growth factor appears to be more effective than standard therapy in case studies. This protocol will evaluate the healing effect of Vivostat PRF treatment of non-eschemic foot ulcers to identify responders and to enable sample size calculation for a subsequent pivotal trial.

The purpose of this study is to assess if the experimental drug, DSC127, is safe, how well it can be tolerated, and how different doses effect the healing of the chronic foot ulcers in diabetic subjects.

Although major improvements in the management and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers have been made, the clinical and financial burden of such long-term wounds is still high and is likely to increase as the general population ages. The large population affected by diabetic foot ulcers and the high rates of failure ending with amputation even with the best therapeutic regimens have resulted in the development of new therapies. I-020201 is a bioactive therapy intended for topical treatment of hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers, stimulating the granulation tissue formation. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of I-020201 in adjunct to good standard of care in patients with chronic diabetic foot ulcer.

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of the polydeoxyribonucleotide in improving the healing of diabetic foot ulcers.

The primary objective of this Phase 2 study is to evaluate the efficacy of DCB-WH1 ointment in wound closure as compared to vehicle control when applied topically to chronic diabetic foot ulcers for 12 weeks. The secondary objective of this study is to collect safety information of DCB-WH1 ointment. This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, vehicle-controlled, multi-center study of DCB-WH1 ointment applied topically to grade 1 foot ulcers (according to Wagner grading system) in 50 subjects with diabetes mellitus.

the objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of vacuum-compression effects of Vasotrain on the diabetic foot ulcers using stereological method based on Cavalieri's principle in diabetic patients.

Chronic foot ulcers occurring among diabetic patients are difficult to heal. The frequent elderly age with co-morbidities, vascular insufficiencies, peripheral neuropathies and super imposed infections, all contribute towards the chronicity and failure of treatment. Preserving the ulcerated limb is the patients' wish. On the other hand, an infected ulcer that never heals just unnecessarily prolongs suffering. Nevertheless, patients earnestly like to try all methods of healing before accepting amputation. Objective:To determine whether a course of herbal preparation used as an adjuvant therapy for diabetic patients suffering from chronic foot ulcers may promote healing so that major leg amputation can be avoided.
