Filter by:This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This research is being done to compare the efficacy of HP802-247 plus compression therapy against Vehicle plus compression therapy in achieving complete wound closure over the 12-week treatment period. Vehicle looks the same as HP802-247 but contains no cells. At least 440 subjects will participate. The study is going to be conducted in approximately 5 countries at approximately 50 sites across the European Union.
The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness of complete wound healing in a prospective, open-label, cohort-controlled trial in which venous leg ulcers (VLU)n will be treated using AutoloGel and case-matched against a concurrent cohort of patients receiving undefined Usual and Customary Care (UCC)
INTRODUCTION: Vascular ulcers are an important pathology in the daily medical practice in all the assistance levels, and they have big repercussion referring to individual, social and labour levels, supposing a big consumption of human and material resources.The cure with autologous platelet rich plasma (autologous PRP) has demonstrated in different studies a decrease in the cicatrization time comparing to conventional methods in hospital levels, which becomes interesting contrasting its efficacy in primary care. AIM:Evaluate the practicability, security and potential of the autologous PRP in the treatment of vascular ulcers, comparing to the conventional treatment ( cure with humid environment), in primary care patients with chronic venous insufficiency in C-6 degree (CEAP classification). DESIGN:A pilot study will be executed, which will consist in a randomized clinical test, multicentred, in parallel groups and opened. 40 patients suffering of venous vascular ulcers will be studied, who will be between the age of 40-80 years old, and who will be attached to five health centers. Variables for the identification, following, result and patient profile have been defined. Emphasize the variables of "ulcer area decreasing", "CIVIQ index", "% one cure per week" .
This study aims to determine if the use of surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation, applied to various motor points on the lower limb to elicit muscle contraction when combined with compression bandaging accelerates the rate of venous leg ulcer healing.
Ulcers of the lower extremities, particularly in patients older than 65 years, are common among the population. Studies estimate the prevalence of current chronic leg ulcers at approximately 1%. The most common cause (approximately 80%) is thought to be chronic venous insufficiency disease. Recurrent cellulitis is an additional common cause. The ulcers cause a significant morbidity and negative impact on the patients' quality of life. The care of chronic vascular ulcers places a significant burden on the patient and the health care system. Additionally, these nonhealing ulcers place the patient at much higher risk for lower extremity amputation. Natural Matrix Bio polymer Membrane (NMBM) is a novel topical cosmetic cream containing a mix of natural waxes, sugars and lipids. The aim of this study is to test whether of Natural Matrix Bio polymer Membrane (NMBM) is effective as an adjunctive therapy to the treatment of venous stasis and post-erysipelas leg ulcers.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of an oral, nutrient intervention containing the bioactive components of fish oil to promote healing of chronic venous leg ulcers (CVLU). If this systemic, nutrient intervention is found to alter the microenvironment of CVLU, the science of wound healing and care of patients with CVLU will be vastly improved.
Chronic venous leg ulcers (CVU) represent a medical problem associated with significant morbidity, increased work absenteeism and earlier retirement as a consequence of disability. This strongly affects the patient's quality of life and has a significant economic impact on healthcare systems. Reports of studies with animal models show that treatment with bone marrow-derived stem cells has a beneficial effect in healing chronic skin wounds. The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the safety and feasibility of cell therapy with bone marrow derived cells (BMDC) as a complementary healing therapy in chronic venous leg ulcers, and in addition to evaluate its effectiveness. The knowledge gained in the pilot study will be used to refine the clinical protocol procedures of a subsequent randomized study. Patients with venous legs ulcers meeting eligibility criteria and providing appropriate written informed consent will be enrolled for study participation. Enrolled patients will receive Autologous BMDC implantation at de venous ulcer in conjunction with standard of care (SOC) treatment. During follow up, adverse events will be assessed by ulcer clinical examination. Effectiveness of the experimental treatment will be assessed by evaluating ulcer healing (reduction of the ulcer area) and pain reduction over a six-month period.
This is a prospective, randomised, open label, controlled pilot study to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ReCell Autologous Cell Harvesting Device (ReCell) for the management of chronic leg ulcers associated with venous insufficiency. Outcome will be compared between study participants receiving standard care (debridement, compression therapy) and participants receiving ReCell in addition to standard care.
This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This research is being done to compare the efficacy of HP802-247 plus compression therapy against Vehicle plus compression therapy in achieving complete wound closure over the 16-week treatment period. Vehicle looks the same as HP802-247 but contains no cells. At least 250 subjects will participate. The study is going to be conducted in approximately 50 sites in the United States and Canada.
This study seeks to determine if compliance with compression therapy is increased in patients with healed venous insufficiency ulcerations when lower levels of compression therapy are prescribed. This study will measure compliance with compression therapy at low levels of compression. It will also seek to determine if compression therapy aids in the prevention of venous insufficiency ulcer recurrence.
