Hyperbaric Oxygenation in Diabetic Ulcer
Diabetes MellitusHyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) involves breathing of 100% oxygen under elevated ambient pressure. In correlation to the pressure level oxygen dissolves in the plasma resulting in an increase of total oxygen in the body. The elevated tissue levels of oxygen may persist for hours, instigating healing processes in wounds caused by disturbances in of perfusion in small vessels, a condition often found in patient with diabetes. We plan a prospective, double-blind randomized clinical study in 80 patients with chronic diabetic ulcer. All will have optimum treatment of diabetes. The HBO group will be given HBO at 2.4 bar, 90 min., 30 sessions, controls will have sham HBO. Routine wound care will be identical in both groups. Before, during and after treatment (3, 6 and 12 months), a number of monitoring and imaging procedures will be done, cells in the bloodstream indicating improved healing will be determined. Hypothesis: HBO will instigate the healing process in the majority of patients with chronic diabetic leg ulcer, provided the patency of the large vessels is given.

Study of ReCell® Treating for Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Diabetic Foot UlcerDiabetic foot ulcer is one of the refractory wounds and always poses many challenges in clinical practice. This study was conducted to have a prospective, randomised, controlled study compare the safety and efficacy of the ReCell® technology with skin graft (experiment group) with split-thickness skin graft (STSG, control group) alone on treating diabetic foot ulcers.

Role of Healthy Bacteria in Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative ColitisIntestinal inflammation seen in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) results from an altered mucosal immune response to luminal bacterial antigens. Current research suggests that an inappropriate and persistent immune response against commensal intestinal bacterial flora plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). It has been also proposed that the signs and symptoms of IBD may be mediated by the increased intestinal permeability secondary to low grade inflammation in the gut mucosa. Increased intestinal permeability results in further exposure of underlying intestinal mucosa to luminal bacteria and antigens perpetuating the intestinal inflammation. Thus restoring intestinal permeability rather than only reduction of mucosal inflammation would thus be a desirable endpoint in the restoration of mucosal integrity and would be the harbinger of better long term outcome. Many clinical trials have shown that probiotics may have beneficial effect on IBD patients. Probiotics are hypothesized to work by several mechanisms though they are not clearly established. The role of probiotics in improving intestinal permeability has not been evaluated. The probiotic VSL #3 is easily available, cheap, effective and safe alternative or substitute for the existing therapeutic agents will be evaluated in this study for their efficacy, tolerability, compliance in inducing clinical response in patients with Ulcerative colitis. This will be a double blind randomized placebo controlled study to determine the clinical efficacy of 12 weeks of oral probiotics (VSL#3) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The objectives of this study are to determine the efficacy of probiotics on clinical endoscopic and histological improvement, to find the improvement in faecal, serum and intestinal tissue inflammatory markers, improvement in intestinal permeability, improvement in Quality of life parameters.

Efficacy and Tolerability Study of Natura-Alpha in the Treatment of Patients With Active Ulcerative...
Ulcerative ColitisThis study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of multiple oral doses of Natura-alpha capsule administered to patients with active ulcerative colitis. This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design study. Up to 75 patients will complete this study (20 to 25 patients per treatment group) at approximately 10-12 clinical sites in the Unites States. Patients will be assigned at a 1:1:1 ratio to receive placebo, Natura-alpha 10 mg or Natura-alpha 20 mg, b.i.d. Replacement patients may be added, pending Sponsor approval, if it appears that less than 60 patients will complete the study.

TheraGauze™ Alone and Regranex®Gel 0.01% Plus TheraGauze™ in the Treatment of Wagner Stage I Diabetic...
Diabetic Foot UlcerPatients will be randomized to receive TheraGauze alone or with Regranex to treat diabetic foot ulcer condition. The purpose of the study is provide the sponsor with pilot information regarding the ability of TheraGauze to promote wound healing on its own and to examine synergy with Regranex in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.

Ulcerative ColitisTo assess the effects of visilizumab on the safety of subsequent salvage therapies in subjects who experienced disease progression in a previous visilizumab study and subsequently received salvage therapy.

The Efficacy and Tolerability of Coltect as Add-on in Patients With Active Ulcerative Colitis -...
Ulcerative ColitisThe aim of the study is to reduce the severity and duration of acute attacks, to prevent the recurrence of new acute attacks and to improve patient's quality of life. Coltect contains anti inflammatory and antioxidant natural agents (curcumin, green tea and selenomethionine) which are associated with a positive effect on inflammatory disease. The investigators assume that Coltect represents a tolerable and mild treatment, viable alternative to other medical therapies with fewer side effects. Coltect is a food supplement that contains active ingredients from herbal sources.

Monochromatic Phototherapy on Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Diabetic Foot UlcersThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of monochromatic phototherapy (Biolight®) on foot ulcers in diabetic patients, in comparison of placebo phototherapy as a complementary to standard diabetic foot ulcer therapy. The study initiated with a four week long Run In Period to eliminate spontaneous healing ulcer to be included. Treatment with monochromatic phototherapy (Biolight® or placebo) will be given locally, additional to standard care, three times weekly during the first four weeks and twice weekly the following sixteen weeks or until the ulcer is completely healed, according to a pre-determined treatment plan. The area of the ulcer will be measured once weekly for 20 weeks or until the ulcer is completely healed.
