Active clinical trials for "Varicose Ulcer"

Compound HP802-247 comprises two topical sprays, administered sequentially right after another; these deliver a suspension of fibroblasts and keratinocytes to the wound surface. HP802-247 is the subject of a larger Phase 2 multi-center trial for treating venous leg ulcers. The present study will enroll up to five patients who are suffering venous leg ulcers, have failed a prolonged course of standard wound therapy and one or more advanced technologies, but who would not qualify for the Phase 2 study.

The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical benefit of CureXcell® as adjunct to Standard of Care in the treatment of Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers. CureXcell® is a cell based therapy, containing activated homologous white blood cells prepared from donated healthy whole blood. A total of 252 patients will be randomized to receive either CureXcell® or Placebo.

This study will compare the Omeza® Products Bundle to standard of care (SOC) for in subjects with chronic venous leg ulcers and subjects with diabetic foot ulcers.

Aim of the present study is to investigate the efficiency of adrenaline (epinephrine) used locally in reducing and avoiding post-operative formation of subcutaneous ecchymoses and hematomas, in comparison with traditional practice of hemostasis, and to assess improvement in the quality of life of subjects undergoing classic great saphenous vein stripping, who received or did not receive adrenaline as a local hemostatic.

This pilot study hypothesizes that use of the Regenesis Provant Wound Therapy System (a radiofrequency device) twice daily over venous stasis ulcers (wounds thought to occur due to improper functioning of valves in the veins, usually of the legs) will result in increased rates of healing and a larger proportion of completely healed wounds after 12 weeks of therapy compared to wounds treated identically using a Provant device that is not activated to emit radiofrequency.

Chronic venous leg ulcers (VLU) are painful, debilitating wounds that place a significant burden on the patient, their family, and healthcare resources. Treating VLU can present a significant challenge to clinicians, who currently have a limited range of treatments at their disposal. The mainstay of treatment is compression bandaging, ambulation and elevation at rest. In addition to the aforementioned, intermittent pneumatic compression has also been utilised1. When applied to the leg or foot intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices intermittently inflate and deflate to increase venous return. These devices can be uncomfortable to wear, and compliance can be inhibited because of size, weight and external power source that limit the patient's mobility. In patients who cannot walk, or in those who are unable to tolerate compression bandaging, ulcers may deteriorate and never heal. Accordingly, there is a need for novel, alternative devices or strategies that can be used to complement or replace compression bandage therapy.

The PuraPly AM case series is a prospective, observational study for patients who have received PuraPly AM which consists of a collagen sheet coated with polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride (PHMB) and is intended for the management of wounds; no experimental intervention is involved.

The RESPOND Registry is an observational study to assess the impact of PuraPly™ AM on the management of wounds in real world clinical settings; no experimental intervention is involved.

The PuraPly Antimicrobial Wound Matrix (PuraPly AM) case series is a prospective, observational study for patients who have received PuraPly AM which consists of a collagen sheet coated with polyhexamethylenbiguanide hydrochloride (PHMB) and is intended for the management of wounds; no experimental intervention is involved.

This observational safety follow-up study enrolled subjects from the 802-247-09-032 study with the investigational product HP802-247 for venous leg ulcers, who received at least one application of HP802-247 or Vehicle (Placebo). This study is being done for the following purposes: to identify new adverse events, to examine ongoing adverse events not resolved in subjects who participated in the 802-247-09-032 trial, to record wound status, and to determine if there are differences in Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) associated with the treatment assignment from the 802-247-09-032 Trial. About 440 subjects were to participate depending upon subject enrollment from the previous study, 802-247-09-032. The study was conducted in approximately 50 sites in Europe.
