Active clinical trials for "Ulcer"

Observe the long-term (1-year) outcomes of Dermagraft, compared with conventional treatment of four-layer compression bandaging therapy alone, in subjects who completed the ABH-Dermagraft-001-08 study. Study Hypothesis: N/A (Long-term follow-up study)

We aim to investigate the relationship between skin microvascular function and the first hospitalization for ischemic foot ulcer in patients with type 1 diabetes former randomized during 7.5 years to intensified conventional insulin treatment (ICT) compared to standard insulin treatment (ST).

Trafermin is a recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF; original development code, KCB-1), which is manufactured by genetic engineering using Escherichia coli by Kaken Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). Trafermin 0.01% cutaneous spray product kit consisting of a glass bottle containing lyophilized trafermin, a glass bottle with solvent for solution and a spray part to fit the glass bottle after reconstitution of the final product. We conduct a multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel-group, multicentre study consisting of a placebo run-in phase (2w), a treatment phase (max. 12w) and a follow-up phase (3mo+6mo). The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate a superior wound closure rate of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) of neuropathic origin after a maximum of 12 weeks topical daily application of trafermin 0.01% spray compared with placebo, in addition to best local care (off-loading, dressings). Approximately 210 patients will be randomized and it is planned that this study will be conducted at approximately 40 investigational sites in Europe.

To proof the therapeutic equivalence of once daily (OD) versus three times daily (TID) dosing of total 3.0 g mesalazine granules in patients with active ulcerative colitis

Eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) with standard triple therapy are disappointing, and studies from several countries confirm this poor performance. The study aimed to assess the eradication rate of a new sequential treatment regimen compared with conventional triple therapy for the eradication of H. pylori infection.

Stain Analysis Mapping of the Plantar surface (STAMP) is a method designed by the University of Leeds to measure 'in-shoe' strain patterns on the plantar surface of the foot. Shear Load Inductive Plantar Sensing (SLIPS) is an insole designed by the University of Leeds to measure plantar shear stress and plantar pressure. This study aims to compare plantar strain using STAMP and plantar shear stress and plantar pressure using SLIPS in two groups of patients with diabetes; high risk patients with a recently healed plantar ulcer and low risk patients (according to the NICE definition).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether aminosalicylic acid (ASA) can be safely withdrawn in patients with long-standing clinical inactive UC.

This study randomises patients with venous leg ulcers, to be managed either using conventional compression bandages or a bridged vacuum assisted closure system under compression.

This is an open label study of subjects who have failed Protocol PGN-1300. Adult subjects (greater than 18 years old) who present with a mildly infected diabetic foot ulcer (IDSA criteria) having full thickness (i.e., through the dermis but not involving joint capsule, tendon, and bone) and have failed PGN-1300. Subjects must also provide informed consent and meet all other entry criteria to be enrolled and receive PluroGel PN.

This investigation is a Post Marketing Follow-Up Study for Mepilex XT conducted as part of Mölnlycke Health Care's quality system. The primary objective is to evaluate the performance of the dressing when used as intended on exuding Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs) in the inflammatory and granulating stages of the wound healing process.
