183 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is a prospective, multicenter, double-blind, 1:1 randomized clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the use of Celliant Socks increases tissue oxygenation (via oxygen saturation, StO2) and incidence of wound closure in subjects with diabetic foot ulcers. This study will use hyperspectral imaging and wound assessment to measure these outcomes. The study will enroll 254 evaluable subjects total, 127 per arm to meet the Primary Endpoint. Enrollment may continue up to twenty-five hundred (2500) evaluable subjects total to meet the Key Secondary Endpoint of complete wound closure.
This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial designed to collect patient outcome data on a commercially available human autologous homologous skin construct with SOC dressing compared to SOC dressings alone in the treatment of Diabetic Foot Wounds.
A multicenter, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GrafixCORE® for the treatment of complex diabetic foot wounds with exposed tendon and/or bone.
This study tests two different approaches to the removal of dead tissue from the surface of a wound.
People with diabetes often experience foot ulcers, which can harm their ability to move, lower their quality of life, and increase the chances of losing a limb. These diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) commonly come back (recur) even after they've healed, so it's crucial to stop them from returning to avoid toe, foot , or leg amputation. While wearing special shoes to reduce pressure on the feet is essential for healing and preventing DFUs, many people struggle to follow this treatment plan once their ulcers have healed. This study aims to see if a lifestyle-focused program can help participants create daily routines and habits that make it easier to consistently use special shoes and take care of their diabetes and feet to prevent ulcers from recurring.
The current trial examines the potential benefits of continuous 12 week treatment with Santyl, measured in terms of wound bed appearance. The visual appearance of granulation tissue will be recorded at each visit for the purpose of examining the relationship between wound bed appearance and progress towards healing. In support of this longer treatment regimen with Santyl, a recent animal study found that application of Santyl for 12 weeks was safe and well tolerated. Therefore, the present study is designed to test the hypothesis that daily treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) with Santyl for up to 12 weeks will result in more rapid development of granulation tissue than DFU treated with supportive care.
Subjects enrolled in this study will either use Santyl daily or follow standard care procedures for up to 6 weeks for their diabetic foot wound. After 6 weeks of treatment, the subjects will continue into the follow-up phase for an additional 6 weeks. Study doctors will look at the wound in the office each week (up to 12 weeks) to see if the wound is healing. Depending on a number of factors at each office visit, the study doctors may also use a procedure called sharp debridement to remove dead skin from the wound. This study will test the hypothesis that daily treatment of diabetic foot wounds with Santyl will result in more rapid healing, healthier wounds, and fewer required sharp debridements over the study period than for diabetic foot wounds treated in other ways.
The goal of this study is to evaluate changes in the healing tissue of diabetic foot wounds following 14 days of treatment with Santyl or its vehicle base.
Patients with diabetes may develop chronic wounds that respond poorly to treatment. Gene therapy with the platelet-derived growth factor-B gene has been shown to help with the healing of chronic wounds. This study will evaluate a new way to deliver the gene to the wound tissue.
This trial is a multicenter, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BioREtain® Amnion Chorion (BR-AC) plus standard of care versus standard of care only in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. The trial design will control potential variables that may affect the outcome between the treatment group and the control group by standardizing the requirements for debridement, wound dressings, and off-loading. Weekly subject visits will help monitor compliance in wound care and off-loading, as well as to document when wound closure is achieved. The study will also implement the use of an electronic imaging and measurement device using a standardized protocol to ensure the measuring of the wound surface area and volume is accurate, highly reproducible, and minimally variable. There will also be a crossover treatment phase for those patients that were relegated to standard care only. After their 12-week standard of care treatment phase and for only those subjects that did not achieve complete wound closure, will be allowed to crossover for an additional 12 weeks of treatment with the BR-AC product following the protocol and procedures set forth within this document.
This study is an open label trial designed to test the effectiveness of the Tennant Biomodulator® PRO electrical stimulation device (Avazzia), which uses BEST™ (Bio-Electric Stimulation Technology), on hospital in-patients to improve perfusion in the treated and contralateral limb.
This study is designed to evaluate the ability to modify a contact cast system so that topical medications can be applied daily to an underlying wound in patients with diabetic plantar ulcers. The modification of the cast will be done by making an opening where the wound is located in the contact cast system. A contact cast system is a device that will reduce the pressure in the area where the wound is located.
Many people with diabetes will develop a non-healing diabetic foot ulcer. Many ways are available to try to get a diabetic foot ulcer to heal, including application of Oasis Ultra. The hypothesis to be tested is that application of Oasis Ultra will cause more diabetic foot ulcers to heal than wounds treated with regular medical care. Subjects will have their diabetic foot wounds treated for up to 12 weeks with Oasis Ultra or regular medical care .
The purpose of this study is to determine if AutoloGel platelet rich plasma used on non healing diabetic foot ulcers Wagner gd. 1 and 2 is more effective then the usual and customary care
The goal of this investigational study is to evaluate the safety and clinical performance of Tropocells Autologous Platelet-rich Fibrin (PRF) for wound care for both males and females, ages 18-80 years old, with Grade 1 and 2, mild to moderate, neuroischemic diabetic chronic foot ulcers in subjects with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer \[is/are\]: Measure 1: Wound Closure with Tropocells Autologous PRF System for DFU Measure 2: Safety of Tropocells Autologous PRF System for DFU Researchers will enroll to acquire approximately 30 evaluable subjects with no comparison group. Run-In Phase (2 weeks): participants with chronic diabetic foot wounds will undergo a 2-week run in phase presenting to the clinic for weekly visits, for standard of care. Active Treatment Phase (12 weeks): participants that do not show a reduction of at least 20% may be qualified to advance to the active treatment phase where wounds will be evaluated and treated weekly in the research clinic to receive standard of care with Tropocells Autologous PRF System. Follow-up Phase (1 month and 3 months): participants with wounds that losed during the Active Treatment Phase ( 100% wound closure with two weekly assessments demonstrating persistent closure) will be advanced to the follow-up phase to show if the wound remains closed at 1 month and 3 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to follow the progress of wounds in those with venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers while using an absorbent dressing called Mepilex Up. The main objective is to follow the progress of these wounds over time from initial visit to each follow-up visit. Participants will be asked to wear Mepilex Up dressing for up to 6 weeks of treatment or until healed, changed at every one-week interval.
This research is being done to compare two different methods of wound monitoring for chronic wounds: remote wound monitoring using a smartphone app and in-person wound monitoring in a clinic setting. This will be a pilot non-blinded randomized controlled feasibility trial. The investigators will enroll 120 patients with an active diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) who present to the multidisciplinary diabetic foot clinic in Baltimore, Maryland. Patients will be computer randomized 1:1 to receive wound care monitoring using remote DFU monitoring technology or standard in-person monitoring for 12 weeks.
This study is evaluating whether a therapeutic ultrasound device can improve blood flow to the leg with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).
This study is a prospective, randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of Miro3D Wound Matrix plus Standard of Care (SOC) compared to SOC alone in treating Wagner Grade 1 diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and wound dehiscence in an outpatient setting. The trial is sponsored by Reprise Biomedical, Inc. and aims to explore whether the addition of Miro3D-a three-dimensional, acellular porcine-derived wound matrix-enhances wound healing outcomes compared to SOC alone. Purpose of the Study: The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether applying Miro3D in combination with SOC leads to improved healing of diabetic foot ulcers compared to SOC alone. Specifically, the study seeks to assess early wound healing progress at four weeks (as measured by percent area reduction and granulation tissue formation) as a predictor of complete healing by twelve weeks. Key Question the Study Seeks to Answer: Does the addition of Miro3D to standard wound care improve the healing rate and overall wound outcomes for patients with Wagner Grade 1 diabetic foot ulcers or dehisced wounds compared to standard care alone? Study Design Overview: Subjects who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized into one of two groups: 1. Miro3D + SOC arm - receiving Miro3D weekly for 4 weeks, then biweekly if needed, for up to 12 weeks. 2. SOC alone (control) arm - receiving SOC without Miro3D. If the wound remains unhealed at 12 weeks in the SOC alone arm, participants may "crossover" to receive Miro3D treatment under the same schedule for an additional 12 weeks. Primary Endpoint: 1. Percent Area Reduction (PAR) and granulation tissue formation at 4 weeks, serving as predictors for wound healing at 12 weeks. Secondary Endpoints: 1. Quality of Life (QOL) improvements, including pain, mobility, and emotional well-being, assessed using a validated Wound/Ulcer-QOL tool. 2. Pain levels using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at each visit. Population: Approximately 30 adult subjects (15 per arm) with Wagner Grade 1 diabetic foot ulcers or dehisced wounds will be enrolled. Subjects must have adequate blood flow, demonstrate wound size criteria, and commit to offloading and follow-up care. Follow-Up: Subjects will be followed weekly through the 12-week study period. Healed subjects will undergo confirmation visits at 2 and 4 weeks post-closure. Subjects in the crossover arm will be followed for an additional 12 weeks if their wound was unhealed at the primary endpoint. Statistical Considerations: Data will be summarized using descriptive statistics, including wound measurements, infection status, and healing rates. Comparative analysis will be conducted between treatment groups and schedules (weekly vs. biweekly Miro3D application). Adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and device-related events will also be documented. This study aims to generate clinical evidence supporting the use of Miro3D as a beneficial adjunct to standard wound care in promoting early and complete healing of diabetic foot ulcers.
The goal of the study is to compare whether an integrated model of care between Foot Wound and Diabetes Clinic with use of remote glucose monitoring technology (Intervention Arm), as compared with usual care without the use of remote glucose monitoring technology (Control Arm), will result in 1) improved glycemic control, 2) improved ulcer and wound healing, 3) improved patient reported outcomes (PROs), 4) reduced long-term healthcare resource utilization, and 5) improved adherence to anti-glycemic therapy for patients with DFUWI and poor glycemic control over the course of a 6-month intervention period.
The Biorepository will guide the Diabetic Foot Consortium (DFC) activities for collection and storing biosamples and data from participants enrolled in other current and future DFC research studies.
This is a two-armed randomized controlled trial (RCT) primarily aimed at determining if application of Cytal Wound Matrix 1-Layer intervention to diabetic foot ulcers shows improved wound closure rates when compared to standard care intervention.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the outcomes of patients who receive a certain type of skin substitute called RestrataTM Wound Matrix (Restrata™). Results of this study may be used to make decisions on whether to conduct additional studies on this particular wound matrix product. RestrataTM has been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration for use in certain types of ulcer treatments, including the type that will be part of this study (diabetic foot ulcers).
An observational study to gather information about people who may have certain abnormalities in skin microcirculation and muscle metabolism and to determine whether these abnormalities affect wound healing. The study also examines the association of a specific type of cell with the rate of wound healing.
A Comparison of AmnioExcel® and Total Contact Casting (TCC-EZ) Versus Standard Wound Care and TCC-EZ in Treating Diabetic Foot Ulcers Best practice is to treat DFUs with standardized care and, if unsuccessful, use advanced modalities. This prospective clinical trial will compare healing rates between two treatment modalities in patients with DFUs in an ambulatory wound care clinic. The treatments are Total Contact Cast (TCC-EZ) with AmnioExcel® and TCC-EZ with standard treatment. Adult participants 18 years or older with a diabetic foot ulcer located on the plantar surface and \>1 cm in diameter will be asked by the Altru Wound Care Clinic MD or Family Nurse Practitioner visit to participate in the study if they have not demonstrated a 50% in reduction in wound area after two weeks of standard treatment. For those potential subjects who do not have 3rd party reimbursement the cost of the product and application will be covered by the respective company. They must be cognitively intact as evaluated by wound clinic primary care providers. Participants must agree to use the study treatments as directed, and to keep clinic visits during the 12-week trial or until the ulcer closes, whichever comes first.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the overall burden to the participant (economic, quality of life, patients satisfaction and freedom from side effects) when treating Gram positive infections of the foot in diabetic adults with daptomycin versus vancomycin.
* After determining if subjects meet the criteria to be included in the study they will be randomly placed in either Group 1 or 2 and patient will be blinded from randomization group. * Subjects will walk across a pressure plate to determine different areas of high pressure under the foot. This will be done before the INTEGRA application and at every other follow-up visit. * Both groups will be debrided and have pictures taken in the OR * Group 1 will have Integra Flowable Wound Matrix applied onto the wound in the OR and Group 2 will have the Integra Flowable Wound Matrix applied onto the wound and injected subcutaneously in the OR. * Subjects will be placed in a total contact cast at each visit. If wound healing occurs prior to 12 weeks, a final assessment visit will be done and the status of the healed ulcer will be assessed.
The study is aimed at evaluating the clinician's perceived ease of using the V.A.C. GranuForm bride dressing and the patients perceived level of comfort during the dressing wear.
You are being asked to take part in this study because your doctor has determined that you have an ischemic foot ulcer. This research study will compare two approved standard of care treatment modalities for the management of ischemic foot ulcers. The ischemic foot ulcer (wound) on your foot is a result of a blocked artery in your leg. The wound can sometimes be healed with wound care alone, which includes dressing changes with creams and removing (debriding) the dead tissue. Alternatively, the significant narrowing or blockage in one of the arteries in your leg can be treated with several endovascular treatment techniques including: * angioplasty, also called percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and/or * stent placement * atherectomy The hypothesis of this study is that early endovascular or surgical intervention in subjects with moderate arterial insufficiency and a non-healing foot ulcer results in a higher overall incidence of wound healing in a significantly shorter period of time.
The overarching purpose of this study is to investigate the impact that exercise, as delivered through a medically supervised, outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program, has on the wound healing process in Type 2 diabetics having foot ulcers classified as being Wound, Ischemia, foot Infection (WIfI) stage 2 or lower. The criterion reference measure of diabetic foot ulcer wound healing is be the time required to reach the maturation phase of the wound healing cascade (wound closure without drainage).
